Novo America next to Aridzone

 Engels in Deutsche-Brüsseler-Zeitung 1848:

 "In America we have witnessed the conquest of Mexico and have rejoiced at it. It is also an advance when a country which has hitherto been exclusively wrapped up in its own affairs, perpetually rent with civil wars, and completely hindered in its development, a country whose best prospect had been to become industrially subject to Britain — when such a country is forcibly drawn into the historical process.

 It is to the interest of its own development that Mexico will in future be placed under the tutelage of the United States. The evolution of the whole of America will profit by the fact that the United States, by the possession of California, obtains command of the Pacific"

Marxist communists treat Engels as equal of Marx and interchangeable. The two are effectively one. Hence the "We".
