Check page 233 of the United States Government Printing Office Style Manual for the following table

[[Page 233]] NOUNS AND ADJECTIVES DENOTING NATIONALITY
[Data from the Department of State and the Central Intelligence Agency]

Country or Region . . . . Noun . . . . . . . Adjective
United States . . . . .American(s) . . . . . American


Now is the United States a country or a region?

Also, be aware that if you list your nationality as none then you are admitting to being from the Turk and Caicos Islands or Svalbard or (heavens forbid) the West Bank or (worse) The Gaza Strip.
