Last time I checked, "America" was two whole continents. That flag represents the United States OF America. We were required to learn this in 2nd grade. This is the attitude of the United States. We can't even switch to the metric system. All we got out of that plan was a 2-liter bottle of soda. lol 

Last time I checked the only country on earth with America in it's name is the United States of America. Oh, and the territory of American Samoa. And out of everybody on the two continents and additional islands, holdings, territories, etc the only ones that call themselves Americans are those who reside in the USA. Canadians, Brazilians, Mexicans, Samoans, Hondurans,
United Statesians AMERICANS!
USA
USA!
USA!!
USA!!!
USA!!!!
Go tell a Canadian they live in America... they'll crack you on the head with a syrup infused hockey stick, tell you they live in Canada (or Quebec if they're on of
those, and maybe just maybe mention that it's technically in North America but who the hell goes by that.
