No, it represented everything. The new country were the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA while the rest were the SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE AND FRENCH AND BRITISH COLONIES OF AMERICA. All the while, South and North America were considered SUB DIVISIONS of the New World, of America. Notice that ALL European languages show AMERICA as either being the entire New World or the Continent of America. Except English. Again, New World being considered one or two continents is a matter of historical and cultural perspective. Continents are NOT a scientific concept. Plate tectonics are a scientific concept. But regardless of the number of continents, AMERICA, singular, is still used to describe the WHOLE New World, since the very word America was described. (ps: Amerigo Vespucci never even explored the lands of the USA. So it’s ironic the country claiming to be the only place called “America” is in theory the least suited to be called that.)
