When did you realize Mexicans, Canadians, Brazilians etc are all Americans, Sup Forums?

Idiot were called Americans because it's short for US.

> great culture of Amerika

WE WUZ AMERICANS

If you call canadians "Americans" IRL, they get really pissy. It's kind of funny.

>such english, wew

>Shitskins think there is a continent called "America"

wew lad.

You fucking idiot. in ENGLISH, not SPANISH
America is the country, AmericaS with an S implied the two continents.
So let's break this down
America = National name
Americas = Continental/regional name

They'll never be Americans. Ever. There can be only one.

Yeah we should really change our name to the United States of North America desu.

Because "America" is a synecdoche for USA.

Fucking spic.

Depends on the context. In biology, geography, etc. 'America'/'American' used as an adjective usually means "The Americas".

The country to the south of me picked a really stupid ambiguous non-name. As if Germany called itself "The United States of Europe" because it's composed of sub-states and located in Europe.

Yeah right....
It's the americas for the whole continent because there is a north and a south america (and a central america but nobody ever talks about it)
And guess what? North america (without s) is composed of mexico, US and canada.
We don't call the US america because it's the name in english or whatever, we call it america because you're the only relevant country there so we tend to "forget" there is actually two others.

I mean, you never see anything about mexico or canada on french TV, there is plenty of reports about the US or TV program from there

Still wouldn't make sense, since there are many other states in North America.

p.s. Mexico's full name is "The United States of Mexico" which actually makes sense.

Everyone knows the US citizens are degenerate descendants of Europe's New World prisons.

That, or niggers / Mexicans

To make your analogy more accurate, Germany would have to use the location name of a location that isn't named that anymore, IE The United States of Pangaea. Then they would identify as "Pangaeans" and shitskins in turkey would keep trying to cross the border claiming "WE'RE ALL PANGAEANS".

wtf i hate alaska and hawaii now

Huh?

The original sense of America = the New World is still current.

In the English speaking world there is no continent called America. It was gradually changed in the 1900-1950s to North America and South America, collectively The Americas.

The point being that since there is no continent called America, the only possible use of that word could be as a handle for "The United States of America".

The only people that teach that America is one continent are shitskins, romania, greece, spain, and possibly france.

If you're talking about descendants of new world prison I think you mean australian.
US citizen (and maybe canadian I don't know) are descendants of settlers either fleeing religious persecution or seeking a new life in a brand new world

Pretty much every fellow burger knows the difference. We call ourselves Americans because it's the defining word of our country's formal title. Besides, what else will we call ourselves? United Statesers?

Your map needed correcting, btw

The funny part about that is that Mexico is "The united mexican states" so unitedstatesians or whatever the fuck the shitskins try to use when attempting to mock us doesn't work either.

Just for your information it is called the americas in france too, with the distinction about north and south america
The word america is used to talk about the USA but it's a "shortcut", or like the other user said a synecdoche

>wants to teach fellow Sup Forumsaks about USA
>forgets Alaska and Hawaii

Pic unrelated it is Berlin

Why can't we call ourselves Imperialists? I think it sounds cooler.

They dont matter.
Third world shitholes and cuckanada dont exist

"America" doesn't need to be a singular continent to be the name of a place.

When it's said that "Columbus discovered America" the meaning is clear. Same with say 'American Black Bear' or 'Association of American States'.

The colonies in their own way, considered themselves separate countries. That's where the name comes from.

>"america" is a supercontintent made up of 2 continents
nope.

Notice that every time you see this thread, it will have been started by one of the "literally who" shitskins on the 6-continent model list at the bottom. They are the only ones with this issue because they are the only ones that think America is a continent.

Roman empire
romania
Now the difference is more interesting.

We didn't necessarily retroactive change all the historical uses of the word m8.

Modern language is what we are talking about.

NA and SA are on different plates so they are seperate continents.

WE WUZZ ROMAN EMPIRE AND SHIT.

When did you you realize this is not an Indian?

>being this autistic

He's Romanian, at this point it's a tautology.

The US is literally the only important part of America, though. Also nice work chopping off Alaska

The USA is the only relevant country in the whole america, so it's acceptable to call them so.
Plus, they have word "america" in their name, unlike others.

>romania
when will these non countries be banned from posting.

they aren't really. they are more like our slaves. we own both continents and allow them to live in their slave huts

But the USA is the greatest country in America. The rest of "countries" on this two continents are not considered countries in comparison to the USA.

>sitting on a comfy couch watching shit tv while the third world is subjugated

Sounds pretty great to me, from where I'm standing!

if only this weren't bullshit....

dumb spics thijnk americas = america

This shows how great the "american" education system really is.

>one continent called North America
>one continent called South America
>a region in between called Central America
At best you can have "the Americas", but there's no continent just called "America", Mr. Vampire.

> ITT: triggered catholic burgers

The right is how it should look. Every other country in the Americas is shit

this is like teenager tier politics

Funnily enough it's only the Latinos that make that distinction. Yet they flock to the US? We are called Americans because you other shitbird "Americans" are here in our country more than your own.

ITT We teach mentally retarded vampire bro the definition of the word "Colloquialism"
