Nationality/Citizenship FILL IN THE BLANK

America is NOT a continent..Please stop....!

You have the first SENSIBLE response...

I'm finding your response to be rather, well rude to those posting to a question I had. All answers are 'sensible', that's rude to say otherwise, when someone's answering to their best knowledge and you find it best to put them down, that's not nice!!

Some people do refer to America as continent, though not the name found in books, it is "the americas", etc. How about helpful advice instead of personal attacks?

America is NOT a continent..Please stop....!

No, it's two continents; North America, and South America. North America includes Canada, the United States, Mexico, all of the countries in the sub-continent of Central America, and whole lot of island nations. South American includes all of the nations on the continental landmass south of Panama, and a bunch of island nations.

America is also a province in Argentina, and there are towns named America in Illinois, Oklahoma, Mexico, and the Netherlands.

The term "America" can be used in reference to any of the above. However, the term "American" is rarely used in English to refer to someone or something not connected to the United States.

In answer to the "Nationality" question on the G-325A, any unambiguous answer will suffice. "American", "US" or "USA", "United States", etc. On the other hand, answers that wouldn't be acceptable include "Westerner", "Caucasian", and "Democrat".

I model my answer after what is printed on my passport. If you look at your passport, you will see the US government lists "USA" for nationality and not American. So whenever filling out a government form, I always put "USA".

Don't forget that AMERICA is also an awesome (and my favorite) equipo de futbol en Mexico! soy Americanistaaaaaa! (y Gringa)

If you look in your passport it will provide you with correct answer. Your US passport states under the Nationality: United States of America. This is correct answer.

LOL. ROFL.

As for the question, I don't think they'll deny your application as long as they know what you are saying. Remember they will also have your birth record or passport.

If this helps, you can bypass the nationality part of the question and particularly relate your answer to the citizenship portion. In this instance the question (as related to nationality) would be what country are you a citizen of? That would be the United States of America. I don't remember what I put, but I think USA will suffice.

Don't worry... I know you're not a country!

Jim,

you forgot to mention that there was also a rock band named "America."

America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia are the 5 continents of this planet named Earth with a capital "E." I've learned that 46 years ago in school and it hasn't changed yet and won't change until America will follow Atlantis to the bottom of the Ocean.

But to answer the question, I look no further than at my US passports. Under nationality it states: USA. Works for me.
