Americans?

There is only one continent in the Western Hemisphere and it is America. North and South are just directional descriptions. There is North and South Florida but only one Florida.

They must all be Americans. All Mexicans are Americans. All Canadians are Americans. A guy from Uruguay that is a descendant of Egyptians would be an African - American.

There are two continents: North America and South America.
So it's North Americans and South Americans.

I'd say Americans or Westerners. I know this:
If they're from North America, they're North American.
If they're frm Central America, they're Central American.
If they're from South America, they're South American.
Normally people refer to this side of the world as the Americas--plural.
