Americana

It is a term mainly used to promote modern progressive country, modern western swing, contemporary folk, roots rock, rockabilly, and other American roots music genres not popular in the mainstream.

Other terms for this include "Alternative Country," "No Depression" (this name came from the title of an Uncle Tupelo album and is also the name of the leading Americana Music magazine), "Insurgent Country," "Cowpunk" (in the 1980s), and other names.

Americamania

A form of mania that is very common in places in Europe. Symtoms include: Making definitions about "Americunts" Hating on people because they are proud to be American, Making up random stereotypes about Americans and always thinking about how much America is better then your shitty country. The only cure is to go to America.

British Person: Bloody 'ell is that a americunt I see there?
American: Huh?
British Person: What the fuck is the matter with you?
American: What?
British Person: Why did you vote for Bush?
American: I voted for Kerry, sir
British Person: Then why is America in Iraq?
American: I don't know I'm not Bush
British Person: You ignorant asshole!
American: Your the one being ignorant, how about you come with me back to America?
*British Person goes to America and has 15 orgasams while The American Anthem plays in the backround*
Me: Hail Satan! Another case of Americamania is cured!
