It's in the fanfics and profiles and even art and only a fool can not tell it's not based on the USA  but where did Usland come from and who started it?

Actually, even if it's not mentioned once in the series, it's a "canon" name. Jymn Magon explained it : I would have to look through the questions section, but I think he said that : - Thembria means THEM (= URSS) - Usland means US (= USA) I think it's a very clever pun

Your right it is a great pun!

Well, I watched an episode of Gummi Bears today, and noticed a land named "New Gumbria" being refered to (when they are trying to get in contact with ancient gummis)
Not that far from "Thembria", is it?

Not that far from "Thembria", is it? I've never seen that series (yet) but I think that show looks like it's set in England in the middle ages as New Gumbria sounds like one of many places starting with "New".
