The Gulf of Mexico is larger than the Gulf of Alaska, at least in terms of surface area:
The Gulf of Mexico covers about 617,800 sq miles (1.6 million km²).
It ends November 30, as it does everywhere else in the Atlantic Basin.

The Mississippi River's upper reaches were sighted by French-Canadian explorer Louis Jolliet and French Jesuit missionary Jacques Marquette in 1673. They traveled downriver by canoe to a point near the mouth of the Arkansas River.
No. It is a gulf because it is delimited by two peninsulas. In this case, those are the Florida and Yucatan peninsulas.
yes it is because America captures Mexico but now it's a own land!
Because it is protected by the Florida and Yucatan peninsulas. Think of the Gulf of Mexico as a large bay, protected from the open sea by such landforms.
Water's ability to transport a load (a grain of sediment) depends on how fast it is flowing. Fast flowing water can move boulders but as the water slows its ability to move things diminishes. As a river enters the sea it ceases to flow (it has reached sea level) and it therefore deposits its last sand first and only the finest silt is carried further by the inertia of the flow.
There are several states that are on the coast of the United States. Four of these states are, California, Georgia, Florida, and Oregon.
Gulfs are formed by movements in the Earth's crust. The Earth's Tectonic plates may break apart, or rift creating a gulf. Subduction also creates gulf by making downfolds in the rock under the ocean.
yes they are cool and really nice because i went there and beware of sharks because i almost got biten by one.

None. All the countries that border the Gulf of Mexico -- the United States, Mexico, Cuba -- are found within North America.
