Why do non english speaking countries call USA for USA

Even though their language doesn't add up to it?

UAE for example means something else in my language in norwegian
"De forente arabiske emirater"

USA would be "Amerikas Forente Stater", but for whatever reason we call it USA. I am just wondering? Maybe its marketing reasons?
