The United States of America is also known as the United States or simply America or by acronyms such as USA or US or U.S.A. or U.S.. The United States is predominantly an English-speaking nation. As in other English-speaking nations, non-therapeutic circumcision of boys was popularized in the nineteenth century, however, the practice of non-therapeutic circumcision of boys is now in decline.

History

Jews have lived in America since before the Revolutionary War. They have always practiced ritual circumcision (Brit Milah) of boys on the eighth day of life in accordance with the Abrahamic covenant, however this was only for a very small percentage of the population.

One may be certain that the Founding Fathers of the United States of America were men with intact foreskins as were the men who fought the American Civil War (1861-1865).

Non-therapeutic circumcision of males for non-religious reasons originated in the United Kingdom in the early nineteenth century, but eventually spread to other English-speaking nations.
