You’re kind of uninformed. Puerto Rico is a US territory, “won” from Spain in the Spanish American war. Let me guess, your history teacher was your football coach.

You might be from a small town if your history teacher was also the head football coach and called you by your last name.

In Louisiana or Texas if you had the misfortune of getting a football coach for a history teacher your education was basically fucked.
