[Charles32270]

First, let me say that I think the practice comes from the fact that only the US has 'America' in the name of its country. It's shorthand to use the most unique part of the name, like calling the People's Republic of China 'China'. But secondly, let me say it's also because us Americans are a self-important bunch. Frank Lloyd Wright proposed calling the inhabitants of our country 'Usonians' - an elegant and inventive solution that unfortunately completely failed to catch on.
