After the revolution, the colonies re-named themselves ‘states’. But they came together first under The Articles of Confederation. When that didn’t look like it would work, they tried again and came up with the Constitution. That was when they started calling themselves The United States of America. The Constitution was ratified in 1789..

The nation was founded by 13 colonies of great britain located along the atlantic seaboard. They proclaimed themselves “states” and issued the declaration of independence on july 4th, 1776. I think this is the first time it was used.
