US People*

[–] PM_ME_FEET_PICS 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

People from the US are Americans.

No one from Mexico, Canada or South America refers to themselves as an American.

That doesn't make any sense

Yes it does.

The United States of America has a weird name to append "ians" to. So it was just knocked down to Americans rather than "United States of Americans."

North Americans would be the title for the people in North America.

No one calls people from Europe, Ropians.
