Your suggestion sounds exactly like Visamapper (www.visamapper.com) But DoIneedAVisaFor is a more direct way to answer the question if you already know your Destination.

I just tried to visit but got a "can't find the server" error.

I had to drop the www http://visamapper.com/

American citizen should be aliased as well. When I see a list of words like Afghan, Albanian, and Armenian, it makes me think the list describes nationalities as adjectives, not country names. If you ask most US citizens which adjective they'd use to identify their nationality, they'll say American.

All my friends from Canada and South America find this hilarious. But then South Korea simply calls itself Korea and ignores the north.

The correct demonym for the U.S. in English is "American".

In Spanish it's 'estadounidense' which is cool, but there's no equivalent in English. Anybody who actually cares about the ambiguity of the U.S. demonym probably has too much time on their hands.

So these are people who live outside of the United States that describe their nationality as "American"? Do any of them live in countries that actually have "America" in the name?

Wouldn't they be North American?
