History

Europeans long used the personification of Columbia to depict the Americas, choosing the name in honor of the explorer Christopher Columbus who discovered the Americas for Europeans. The term was used as early as the 1620s to refer to a broad stretch of colonies and lands in North, Central, and South America. Eventually, Columbia became the female personification specifically for the United States of America.
