Olsen's America

Olsen’s America If a Danish sea captain by the name of Egil Olsen had discovered America, would it be called Olsen’s land, and if so would it have become a more friendly land without ambition to become a superpower? I would not let the Name Egil come into it, people would soon change it to eagle and as we know that is more aggressive. And since no one had heard of Canada – not many has- it would have been Olsen all the way to Behring Strait. He would have to deal with red Indians though, let them dress the way they wanted and wear fur which, as we know, is frown upon in Europe; but most of all he must have kept the with missionaries out.... more banned them outright.... Funny thing names, America is like a uniform, fits all sizes, But an Egil Olson would have had a grey beard and be fond of beer.
