Whats your nationality???

[Wicked Pleasures]

Um...I was born in Italy...so that makes me Italian. But, my mom's side is Russian desent.

[Marshmallow Fluff]

My nationalities are:

American
Native American
Scottish
Mexican
French

...It's scary when you are a lot of things...well, to me it is.

Some people havn't read the thread before they posted. To simplify it your nationality is THE STATUS OF BELONGING TO A PARTICULAR NATION not your ETHNIC GROUP/S. I'm not saying it's impossible to be of duel nationality, it's just rare and you couldn't have more than two.

Aside from that... I'm British.

EDIT: I'm just gonna go and cry in a hole somewhere... People still aren't reading and understanding the thread T_T

Here we go again, before it all breaks loose, I'm C&P:ing my usual rant on nationalities.


Let's look up the word nationality.

"... the status of belonging to a particular nation by birth or naturalization ..." or "Nationality is, in English usage, the legal relationship between a person and a country."

In other words, "What is your nationality?" is nearly equivalent of of asking "in what country do you live?"

You don't inherit nationalty--you're born into a nation, true, but you don't inherit it from your parents, it's more like you inherit it from the soil beneath your feet. You can also change your nationality (so to speak, in reality this often means to gain an additional nationality) by migrating into another nation, as well as you can renounce a nationality. Say I were to move to Norway, and renounce my Swedish nationality, then I would only have a Norwegian nationality.

What I want said is: Your origins is not your nationality, the color of your skin is not your nationality, your heritage is not your nationalty.

You can definetly not be more of one nationality than another. You can't be 1/3 german and 2/3 french. That would mean that you are have twice as much a french than a german nationality. You either have a nationality, or you don't have it. Beyond that, you can't "measure" how much of a nationality you have it.

Thus endeth the rant.

I'm of Swedish nationality.

THANKS
I knew that...I might not act smart but I knew that... I am from Honduras, raise and born....
