If anyone says "America" or "Americans" and the context is clear I know they mean countries and not the continents of North and South America! Hell, even your enemies use it that way. When they chant "Death to America!" we're fairly clear they don't mean Canada, Mexico, or indeed Brazil, Argentina, Peru etc.
