I have traveled to Egypt, and even though they are in Africa, they prefer to be refered to as Egyptian. I won’t go into the political and religious details of it all. We might be a bit different in that our religous beliefs are not as much a part of our ethinic identity here. And so, since we call ourselves American all the time, being called North American is not that big a deal to us. But I bet Egyptian-Americans would likely just prefer to be called Americans too.
