USA's flag

Amerikanere er statsborgere i USA.[1] Landet er hjemsted for folkeslag af mange forskellige nationale oprindelser. Som et resultat deraf ligestiller amerikanerne ikke deres nationalitet med etnicitet, men med statsborgerskab og loyalitet.[1] Tiltrods for at statsborgerne udgør størstedelen af amerikanerne, så kan indbyggere uden statsborgerskab, dobbelte statsborgere og udlændinge også hævde at de har en amerikansk identitet.[2]

Brugen af udtrykket "American" i det engelske sprog, i den sammenhæng, hvor det udelukkende betyder folk fra USA, er udviklet fra dets oprindelige betydning, hvor det blev benyttet til at adskille englændere fra folk fra de britiske kolonier i Amerika[3] på trods af dets flertydige sproglige betydning. Ordet amerikaner kan også være en generel betegnelse for folk i Amerika.[4] Se navne for amerikanske statsborgere.

Der er omtrent 320 mio. amerikanere.[5]
