I'm From Another Planet. If People in North America are Called Americans, Are People From South America also Called Americans?

No,we call them the unclean.This is why we hate it when they sneak into our country illegally.

Yes, South Americans and Central Americans are Americans.

That, from what I've heard, is a bit of a beef with them because U.S. citizens do not think of it like that and introduce themselves as Americans, as if they/we are the only Americans.

U.S. citizens are North Americans.

Obviously.

you're named after your country not your continent....


dont be stupid

Don't be a facetious prick. Everyone knows what American means.

Vasily doesnt

Everyone with an IQ over 10. My bad.

So, Africans are not Africans?

So North Americans aren't Americans then? North America is a continent.

Only outsiders refer to them as that...

no one from africa says Im an african...

they will say "Im Nigerian, Morrocan, Algerian, Kenyan, etc. etc. etc.


No one from Europe says... "Im a european" LOL they will say, Im irish or im scottish, or polish...

dont be an idiot

Yes and in this case Americans are named for their country - the United States of America.

USA!

correct... the continent where the United States of America is... inside the USA there are Americans...

in south america they have Brazilians, Chileans etc. etc etc etc...

no one that lives in south america calls themselves americans.. LOL

CORRECT

canada is part of north america and I PROMISE you no one that lives in cnanada calls themselves American... they are Canadians!

North Americans are not called Americans. Canada is in North America and are called Canadians. Mexico is in North America and they are called Mexicans....America is a country same as the other....stop trying to cause trouble and get us to say it's ok for anyone to invade our country.

If People from Texas live in North America and call themselves American.... People from Mexico also live in North America and are also American?

"Mexico is a Spanish-speaking country situated in North America. It lies south of the United States, and is bounded by Guatemala and the Caribbean Sea to the southeast, by the Pacific Ocean to the west and south, while the Gulf of Mexico lies to its east."

So there aren't any Americans?

Calling a Chinese person Asian is actually racist

:racist5:

You might be right. I don't know.

Would like to hear from some Brazilians & Argentinians and anyone else from Central and South America.

ARE YOU RETARDED?

People living in the United States of America are Americans

if you honestly think the opposite, you're stupid!

Appreciate your opinion.

Mexicans live in North America. So they would be Americans too then? If all people from Africa are Africans, all people from North or South America would be Americans then.

United States of AMERICA is a country.

Brilliant troll thread OP. Make people argue with each other. 10/10.

its a fact...

no one from mexico calls themselves mexicans...

and no one from brazil calls themselves americans..

except no one is arguing... lol

he asked a stupid question... it got answered and he refuses to acknowledge it...

stupid being stupid

/thread

The United States is a country. It's in North America.

Mexico is a country. It's in North America.

The United States of America.

Mexico of America.

Same thing. All Americans.

Wrong. The country is called THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. USA.

We need to hear from some South Americans.

So far, it's just been us pinche' gringos and a leaf.

Mexico is just called Mexico. Not Mexico of America.

:retard:
