Technically, "America" consists of Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, etc.
I am a U.S. citizen of German, Austrian, Hungarian and Irish ancestry. I am proud to an U.S. Mutt! lol! I remember my Grandmother (Austrian) speaking fairly broken english who had come to the U.S. in the late 1800's. She was 96 when she died in 1978. I was 12. I wish I had listened more intently to her stories, she really had some good ones.
