so is mexico, but mexicans aren't americans either. they're mexicans. words have meanings. an american is the demonym of someone from the united states of america is it not?
you can call yourself a north american if you want i guess (although that's not really a thing).... but you're not an "american" unless you're an american citizen plain and simple. by your definition everyone in north south and central america is supposedly and "american," that's bullshit and everyone knows that.
I thought it was more like the British, French, etc. are all Europeans. I interpreted the United States of America meant the United States within the Continent of America, where the 'of' part comes from. I hadn't realized it gave them exclusivity of the term. Once again, sincerest apologies for my misguided understanding.
no, you're not... you're a canadian.
I guess Canada isn't part of North America. Sorry, my mistake.
