If you wanted to travel to Europe Schengen region as a US citizen could you spend up to 90 days in EACH Schengen country without a required visa or only 90 days for the entire Schengen region?

You could spend only 90 days in the entire Schengen region. For a non-Schengen citizen, the Schengen region is like one nation from the perspective of visa requirements.


Who does one speak to about a plan to travel throughout different European countries each week for longer than the 90 day visa-free Schengen agreed upon time as a US Citizen?

If you leave the Schengen area and go to a non-Schengen country, and then re-enter the Schengen area later, the "clock" starts again from zero. If you do not need a Schengen visa, this is an advantage. If you do need a visa, it is a disadvantage as you need to get a multiple-entry visa. So, if you plan in a trip outside Schengen in the middle of your travels, you can get 2 x 90 days. For example, if you are in France, you could do a trip to London, as the UK is not in Schengen.


Are US citizens required to have a Schengen Visa?

As I understand it the Schengen agreement between EU countries allows free passage between the collaborating countries without the need to show passports. The UK does not participate as we don't trust the border controls of other countries. A US citizen travelling to a Schengen country needs to have the correct permit / Visa / whatever to visit that country and then will be free to visit all other Schengen countries.

What country requires a visa?

Most (if not all) countries require a visa for foreign visitors. Most of them have exceptions for citizens of certain countries. For instance a UK visitor does not need a visa to enter the US and vice versa. There are some countries where a US citizen can enter without a visa, and quite a few that require a visa for US citizens wanting to visit. It's best to ask at the consulate of the country you intent to visit, or ask at the authority in your country responsible for foreign affairs.


What happens when you get Deported to the UK from US?

Assuming youre a UK citizen, you are no longer eligible for the Visa Waiver Program and would require a visa to visit the US. Moreover, the deportation record would make it difficult for you to get said visa, or even get residency in the US based on a marriage to a US citizen. If youre happy with never visiting the US, you should be fine.
