What is an American?


What is an American? Well, they're people. Americans are people are people who live in America. Just as all of the other races, Americans have different personalities as  well as "status." First, there are the rich Americans, Then, there are the poor Americans, Lastly, there are the traveling Americans.

The poor Americans are usually farmers or factory workers. these people work about 16 hours a day and don't get payed enough to feed their family. After work, they only have 2-4 hours of sleep/rest before going back to work. You can say that their life is like an iPod on replay. Its the same thing over and over until they die. A farmer's life is different though. They grow food for companies but the thing is that they can't grow anything they want. They have to grow one specific crop to sell to the companies. If they don't grow the crops in time, they either get payed less or the companies don't buy from them anymore.

The diverse Americans are usually the rich Americans. Note that this is an example from the 1700s to the 1800s.  These Americans usually own plantations or they are of royalty.  When their child is of age, they usually send them to marry a different ethnicity. That way they can get more bond. With more bonds, they can get more money.

The Americans that likes to travel are usually in between the wealthy and the middle class.  These people go around the world since they got nothing better to spend money on. They would buy everything that seems interesting to them and would still have enough money to go to 5 different countries.

There are many types of Americans around the world. After all, we are all just people. We make the same mistakes and we also may have the same interests despite our ethnicity. Our ethnicity only separates us from the cultures but in the end, we are still the same people. Despite being an American  or not in the end, we are still people.
