Why do Americans pronounce words differently?
#39
Britannia - Held by Rome for hundreds of years and then eventually overran by Germanic tribes. Modern English would be derived from their language, as would their future culture. Not much integration between different societies.
United States- Held by Britain for around 200 years, formed from their citizens, but eventually penetrated by a great variety of cultures and languages.
