Why do US Citizens call themselves Americans if America is the name of the continent<\/p>\n

First, I am telling all the readers that I won’t answer the comments on this article. I will publish them, and you can keep on talking about this subject if you wish. Frankly, I am tired of hearing so much talk and seeing so little positive action. People are masters of watering everything instead of making something waterproof.<\/p>\n

Here is something about the subject<\/p>\n

The Key to the Door of Solutions<\/b><\/p>\n

People,
those geniuses,
solve the problem by creating a new,
more significant problem.
In that way, the primary concern
seems insignificant.
The man is clever.
We always have a key
to the door of solutions.

After reading the people’s explanations, one of them stood out. The writer said that America wasn’t initially the name of the continent but a part of it. In my opinion, that doesn’t mean anything. Almost all words have first meant something else than they later have started to mean. Usually, their meaning has broadened.<\/p>\n

Where Did the Continents Get Their Names?<\/b><\/p>\n

The answer involves the sunrise and sunset, a big bear and a little bear, and three mythological queens; read the whole article<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a problem<\/b><\/p>\n

Despite many opinions, it is a problem that citizens of the USA speak in the name of the whole continent. It is as absurd that Germans start to call themselves Europeans in every situation of life. In that case, we could read that Europeans voted Friedrich Merz<\/a> for the chancellor of Europe. There are two possible solutions. The USA stop calling itself America and its citizens Americans, or the continent will be renamed. There are already suggestions for the land of the USA and its citizens; see below. The new continent’s name could have originated from the continent’s first inhabitants’ language and\/or habits.<\/p>\n
