America isn't a country.
I refer to myself as german, even though that's only a quarter of me, with 1/2 being Scottish. I do it because I like it, but to other people outside of Canada I say I'm canadian. Sometimes I say I'm german but that's because they ask more or I feel like going more into detail.
On the other hand, Americans refer to themselves like that because their name makes it so they have to. "The United States of America" really leaves no alternative.

North America isn't a country, yes. South America isn't a country, yes. America is, though, seeing how most people say that instead of having to say United States of America every time they mention the country. I mean it would sound weird to say I am United Statesan American or USA'an. So therefore we just say American.

It's the United States of America. There are different definitions of continents, varying between 4 and 7 from the way you identify it. For example in the 4 continent version America is one continent, Africa-Eurasia is a continent, Australia is another, and Antarctica is the last one. So yeah in that way that is still correct America is all one big continent. Little words matter here. Just call it Congo right? Who cares if there's a Democratic Republic of Congo and a Republic of Congo that are both different places, right? If somebody says they're from America you just assume they mean U.S.? I get being egotistical but ignoring that there's other versions of America such as the separate continents of North America and South America with many other people is just stupid.
