Google Maps now displays the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. The change was made starting Monday.

The switch comes after President Trump signed an executive order to rename the Gulf on his first day back in office.

Google Maps users in Mexico will continue to see Gulf of Mexico displayed, while everyone else outside the U.S. will see both names.

On Sunday, Trump signed a proclamation declaring it "Gulf of America Day" as Air Force One flew over the body of water for the first time since he renamed it.
