So what is your definition for native? There is no such thing as native, you defy the word? At least that seems to be your point. Even the American continent itself is not native?

About the Africa; it is not just about name changes; the whole landmass as such didn't exist then.

And the USA didn't spring up from nothing. Humans formed it; humans those were already there, as the actual landmass that forms USA. Your explanation is something like annexing Crimea and naming it Grimean. What? Part of Ukraine? We don't know anything about it, this is Grimean. We just popped up.
