The United States of America didn't exist at that time, did it?

Tommy is correct.

Yes, I know. However, I would like that the viewpoint be now, the modern times :) So, I guess it's still correct...

I don't believe it's correct. Colonizers colonize colonies, not already established countries.

@CK I nearly forgot, I just translated from the Portuguese sentence which reads "Estados Unidos da América" apparently the translation of "USA" in Portuguese.
