FInd me a person using "United states' in the way that you did.
If you say Older than 13 States...people would ask "States of what or What States"? because their isn't enough information there. If you say older than 13 US states, that's overly redundant because if you break down the acronym, it translates to United States States. Its like saying MLB Baseball.
