Are Americans British?

No.

Americans are people who have British and American nationality or whose parents have American ancestry. The United States is a multiracial country, with four major races: whites, blacks, coloreds, and Asians, accounting for 75%, 13%, 7%, and 5% of the total population respectively. There are about 12 million Asians, mainly Indians (more than 50%) and Chinese.

British people generally refers to the people of England, rather than other Britons and people of Northern Ireland.

In another sense, it means having British nationality or having parents of British national origin. The total population of the UK is 65.13 million. There is no official language, but the common language is English. In addition, Welsh is also used in northern Wales, and Gaelic is still used in parts of the northwest highlands of Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Most residents believe in Christianity and Protestantism, mainly divided into the Church of England (also known as the Anglican Church, whose members account for about 60% of British adults) and the Church of Scotland (also known as the Presbyterian Church, with 590,000 adult believers) ).
