Wich leads to the question: what do we call people from the US? Unitedstaters? (no offence meant, of course)

over here we officially call them "estadounidenses" which literally translates to "unatedstaters :p

Same here, but the english sounds a bit weird to me.

From the U.S. Lived the first ten years of my life in Florida, lived the past 11 and 1/2 in North Carolina.
 I also suggest you keep disbanding and reforming the squad until you get something akin to "The Avengers" for the squads name but that might take some time.

I just realized two things. 1. For the Win and F___ the World have the same initials. 2. They have the same meaning in Dwarf Fortress.

Statesmen, I guess, or Yankee is the 2nd thing that comes to mind to call U.S. Americans. Though I see flaws in using either.

And California dude is this TheeBaconman.

In Finnish, "Jenkki" is a typical informal name for someone from the USA. It evolves directly from the word Yankee, which if I've understood correctly may be considered offensive by certain people from the Southern States who're proud of their heritage.

Sometimes, USA is also informally referred to as "Jenkkilä", poetic translation "Land of Yankees".

You should play this as an adventurer. Carry doens of shields with you and throw them at everything. Much better than a CPU dwarf would do.

Not to forget, "Jenkki" is also a type of bubblegum.

A bubblegum brand, to be precise.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

This is a masterwork Iron shield.   It is dyed blue.
On it is a masterfully designed image of a five pointed star in pig tail.
On it is a masterfully designed image of stripes in red dyed pig tail.



I've heard 'united statesers' called Sue happy asses, idiots who elect the stupidest among them to lead them, lazy, and gun happy rednecks.   Seems accurate sometimes, but probably "American" is gunna stick.  Sorry Canada.  Mexico and points south too.

Now if you don't mind, I need to go into my indoor room where I keep all my paper Charlie Sheen* for president fliers, fire off some roman candles, while testing my homemade flamethrower.   Then maybe I'll sue the fireworks manufacturer for burning my house down and live a cushy work free life.  Greatest country in the world, yo.
