America includes the continents of North and South America and Central America which connects the two. The United States of America are often incorrectly called "America" and its citizens "Americans" by both citizens and others. The term "Americans", is not used to speak of all the peoples of the Americas such as Brazilians or Canadians or Mexicans as it can and should, but only refers to citizens of the United States. Some consider this a crime.
