Indeed, U.S.A. is not America!
America is the name of a whole continent. United States of America means that the United States belongs to America and NOT that America belongs to the United States. So, next time you want to refer to The United States of America, you can do it as U.S. or the States or whatever you want but not as only America. Gotcha?
How should I use the term America then?
Here we will show you some wrong and correct uses of the term America:
This is how we do it in America.
This is how we do it in the States.
- America is my country and I love it.
- The United States is my country and I love it.
- America lost the Vietnam war.
- U.S.A. lost the Vietnam war.
- Here in America we love Mc Donald's.
- Here in the U.S. we love Mc Donald's.

I'am making over $19,000 a month working online. I kept seeing how some people are able to earn a lot of money online, so I decided to look into it. I had luck to stumble upon something that totally changed my life. After 2 months of searching, last month I received a paycheck for $19683 for just working on the laptop for a few hours weekly. And best thing is..It's so Easy...

IN ENGLISH
"America": Informal abbreviation of the name "The United States of America."
IN SPANISH
"Amรฉrica": name of a continent. (In English, in order not to cause confusion among its speakers, the expression "the Americas" is used for this.)
I am surprised that you havenโt written your standard nonsense about how the number of rings on the Olympic flag โprovesโ that the Americas are one continent. And how the fact that the US is officially named as the โUnited States of Americaโ at the Olympics โprovesโ that โAmericaโ is not an unofficial name of the US.
Have you finally accepted reality? That would be both surprising and refreshing.
Dude you are in denial.
Please explain
โA lie doesn't become truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good, just because it's accepted by a majority.โ

America is to the United States as Notre Dame is to the Hunchback.
United States is of America not itself America. It derives its long form name by making use of the genitive case "of America," owe to the fact that the name of the hemisphere it was founded on is named America in honor of Amerigo Vespucci in 1507 by Waldseemuller and Ringmann.
Motivation behind promoting the United States as being one and same as America is the need to justify using the continental term American as if it were a nationality. The proper terms are in fact U.S. Citizen, United Statesian and U.S. American.

American is everyone that's from what's genuinely America, The New World. The qualified term American refers to a specific group of Americans. Just like qualifying the term European refers to a specific group of Europeans. This is like having to explain that sports cars are cars.
e.g.
North AMERICAN
Central AMERICANS
South AMERICANS
Insular AMERICANS
Meso AMERICANS
Latin AMERICANS
Anglo AMERICANS
etc.. are all AMERICANS.
The mental gymnastics that it takes to ignore the term AMERICAN in everyone of those in favor of and insisting on hold on to an obvious misconception promoted by one's arrogant predecessors throughout the anglos-sphere is remarkable to say the list.
But guess we shouldn't be surprised given the fact that we live in a world where a man can legally claim to be a woman and those who fail to acknowledge them as such can be fired from their job and/or be sued.
