Uncle Sam is the cartoon embodiment of the government of the United States of America a character who appeared in newspapers and magazines beginning in the first part of the 19th century. The commonly accepted version of his origin or at least the best explanation anyone's been able to supply is that he was modelled after Samuel Wilson, a meat primveyor to the United States army during the War of 1812.
Know as Uncle Sam Wilson puts his initials on his goods. The initials U.S were also taken to stand for United States.

Now this figure is recognised everywhere in the world as representing the United States.
