Though some countries still use I think is called Long scale (European) which is different after a million (1,000,000) into milliard (1,000,000,000), billion (1,000,000,000,000), billiard (1,000,000,000,000,000), trillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000), etc....

I think by European you meant rest of the world and by American you mean USA-only (unless our Canadian fellows do use short scale).
