I love my pizza, so I had to go with north america.

Are you kidding me? Pizza is italian.

I'm not. Pizza is very american. Although the first pizza may have been italian, americans have reinventied it. Chicago style, new york style, californian style, just to name a few. Pizza is also a very big part of american food. Look into it, american pizza is very different from italian. But what can i say i work at a pizza parlour and will soon open my own, of course I love it. Just because a food originated somewhere else does not mean that americans can't change it to fit their flavour, and that is what most american cuisine is, a good mix of evcerything else. I think that is what people mean by america does it all. Even at my pizza place we have a teriyaki chicken pizza (no red sauce) a pesto pizza (no red sauce). There are many places that combine different styles to create their own unique flavors.

It's not to criticize, but you made some imprecise assumptions. Anyone can make it's own version of pizza to fit his tastes, in italy it's not different, for example I know a turkish resturant that makes pizza kebab. There are about 10/15 "standard" types of pizza you can find anywere but any resturant has also many of it's own varieties, also anywere you go you can choose the ingredients you want on your pizza from vegetables,to cheese, to ham, to fries, to fish. (the pesto pizza for example is quite common here too,), particular sausages and chocolate are not common (beacause people generally don't ask for them) but you can also choose them in some places if you want.
