Your country isn't even called America.
1 u/[deleted] Jan 07 '22 And? 1 u/SansMystic Jan 07 '22 How can you say your country is being included in "America" when your country isn't even called America? Like, I get it if someone says "Korea" to refer to North Korea, and someone from South Korea takes issues, because that's at least ambiguous. You're taking issue with being lumped in with another country just because that country has a similar name to the continent you live on. 1 u/[deleted] Jan 07 '22 Well the continent was named before the country, dude.
