That's true, both Jazz and Blues were also "created" in the U.S., but along with rock those styles of music have been copied and popularized all over the civilized world. To me country music has seemed to retain an almost rigidly "American" identity. Heck Disco was also invented in the U.S......but let's not go there.

2. cherry pie
3. Jelly
4. American metal or European metal (BOTH)
5. football (Prefer Hockey over everything)
6. foreign cars (Foreign cars built in America ..)
