Do you even understand why you have cleaner tap water in Europe? It is because most of the pipes were put in after WW2, meaning from the 1950's to the 1960's. US pipes are older. That simple. Give it a few more decades and Europe will have the same problems as the US.

In Europe They make it with actual juice and orange. It stems from WWII Germany where they had to invent their own pop with local ingredients because they couldnt import coca cola. Afterwards it became a hit and is now owned by Coca Cola. The American product using it's branding is no way related to Fanta at all. It is more like Orange Crush just a bunch of artificial flavouring and colouring. Canada has it but with Tangerines I believe. And I think you can get real Orangina in the USA. I know you can in Canada.

No it is not. Prove me wrong. Better yet wait and see when all your pipes start failing. That said you also don't have as many lead pipes because of WW2.

Best fanta I ever had was in Nicaragua and Costa Rica, they make a flavor that's really similar to Champagne cola which is a very popular west Indian beverage that I can guarantee no one has had.

If you like sweet drinks I highly recommend looking for the flavor when abroad or trying out champagne cola in either NYC or a predominately Black/West Indian neighborhood because those are the only places I've ever seen it sold.
