Q. Why do foreigners call the US America?
It’s mostly for convenience. The official name of the country is The United States of America. It’s a rather ponderous name with no natural demonym (what you call people from a place) in English, the primary language of the USA.
Q. Why do Canadians call the US the states?
Even though technically both Canada and the United States of America are from North America, Canadians do not ever refer to themselves as Americans. The people of the USA have adopted the term American to refer to themselves. So Canadians never use the term.
