Pretending to more grammatically correct and calling it "statesman." lol. We all live in states, whether you're in the united states of America or not, unless you live in some kind of anarchist or libertarian commune in the ocean or something.
Language is made up. The term used to refer to people from the USA in English is American essentially everywhere. It doesn't define anything. That's just the word used, and that's OK. For example, ketchup isn't a fermented fish sauce either, despite the original word possibly meaning that, but you likely wouldn't complain about that, because we all know what it means and that's the word we've decided to use for it.
