Overview

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

President Trump signed an executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America and Denali back to Mount McKinley on his first day in office. Google Maps will implement these changes once official updates are made in the Geographic Names Information System. Trump justified the changes citing the Gulf's economic significance and honoring President William McKinley.
