Obviously American history would still be there, it would look a little different. Disney's impact is related to pop culture, but still, looking at America you think Mickey Mouse too. Disney is a part of America's heritage, a (little) part of its history. Maybe my love for the mouse got me carried away a little. Still, I won't change it in the original text (I don't like doing that, try to avoid it and only done so 2 or 3 times since starting writing on the blog), but I do agree that after reading your comments calling it Influence on American Pop Culture is a better description. On the other hand would Anaheim be what it is today without Disney, or would Florida be the city it is today without the coming of the Mouse? And I might never have been to Orlando if it wasn't for Disney, like many holiday visitors. On the other hand, I might already have been in Vegas, something I still didn't do because Orlando is my favorite place to visit. The article itself did start with the impact on American History quot, but this was to open the article related to everything that has impact on the Mouse. Maybe a future article I could have a look at the Disney (Pop Culture) Impact on the US... Matt, keep your comments coming. They are highly appreciated. And to all other Disney fans, US fans, holiday fans, etc... we want to hear from you too. Matt, you have a very good point there.

You don't support this in your article. Disney has had little to no impact on American History. America would still be where it is today if Disney had never been born. I'd suggest updating to saying that Disney has had a big impact on "Pop Culture" instead.
