Most country names are only a single word, or might include a geographical description (eg North Korea, South Korea).

The United States of America is plural. It means The States of America which are united. You cannot use States without The.

Other examples are:

The United Kingdom
The United Arab Emirates
The Netherlands (literally the Low Lands, also known as Holland)

Groups of islands also take The:

The Phillippines
The Azores
