"The only whole world uses American English" ... I think you might be living in a bubble. It sticks out like a sore thumb.

He is actually correct. I am neither American nor English.

That's certainly not the case in the majority of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, East Africa, West Africa, South Africa, PNG, Fiji, Philippines, South Asia and South East Asia. Really it's mostly just America and Canada that use American.

I could cite many sources but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_s... provides a simple view.

We don't use American English in Canada either.

Commonwealth nations tend to not use American English. They form a fairly major part of the world.
