Die term "Amerika" verwys tipies na die twee kontinente: Noord-Amerika en Suid-Amerika. Noord-Amerika sluit Kanada, die Verenigde State van Amerika en Mexiko in, terwyl Suid-Amerika lande soos Brasilië, Argentinië en Colombia insluit. Die woord "Amerika" is afgelei van die naam van die Italiaanse ontdekkingsreisiger Amerigo Vespucci, wat die kus van Suid- en Sentraal-Amerika in die laat 15de eeu verken het. Die term "Amerika" word dikwels gebruik om spesifiek te verwys na die Verenigde State van Amerika, wat die mees bevolkte land in Noord-Amerika en een van die wêreld se magtigste nasies is.
