Actually, the sandwich was originally called the Nansburger but the name was changed to protect the French from further embarrassment after WWII.

OK, gotta clear a few things up...

The hamburger was invented in Hamburg, Germany, in some year around like 1900. It was originally made from all kind of meat, but today it is traditionally made from ground beef(unless you work at my school, where hamburgers are made from the garbage of the day). This is the lowdown on the current hamburger.

Fortunately, the Germans don't eat 'em as much, so they don't sue the US for like, copyright infringement.
