Maybe Americans ARE different, I don't know anymore.
Ponder upon the history of the USA, and where an under what circumstance and *why* the people came to the US. (Spoiler: it was mostly to get away from the Old Country.)

Also the core difference between a "subject" and a "citizen". The political difference is immense. From the very beginning, Americans are citizens.
