Is American considered a person's nationality if they were born in the USA?

No. The definition of American is "A person or attribute of one of the nations of the Americas." Under this definition: Canadians, Mexicans, Brazilians, ... are all Americans. Nationality is the status of belonging to a particular nation, whether by birth or naturalization. There is no nation "America", so you cannot have a nationality of American. However, it is acceptable slang to call yourself American when referring to a nationality of the United States of America, as frequently people simply refer to the United States of America as simply America.

When was Central America?

Central America was initially Mesoamerica during Pre-Columbian times. However, during the time when Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1520, the Spanish invaded and took over Mesoamerican territories such as the Mayans and the Aztecs. In 1540, Spain established the Captaincy General of Guatemala, which extended from southern Mexico to Costa Rica, roughly the present Central America. This lasted for about 300 years. Central America went through a process of political, economic and cultural transformation that started in 1907, after the creation of the Central American Court of Justice. In 1951, the San Salvador Treaty that created the ODECA, the Organization of Central American States, was signed.
