Whats Your Nationality?

I was born in the U.S.
My ancestors were Polish, German, and Lithuanian.
 
The Scottish are British.

Aren't they not even part of the United Kingdom?
I've heard people argue that Irish are British, but never Scottish.

My nationality is American.
And I'm like, 95% Irish, and a little bit German and British.
And some sort of Scandinavian. But only an eensy bit.
 

Italian And French Canadian.

But Born in the USA. My dad is from Italy and my Mom is from Quebec.
 
Canadian/American, but I was born in the US.
my ancestors are mainly irish and italian, but theres a little bit of german and welsh on my mums side.
 
born and raised in the U.S.A baby!

but I'm 75 % Irish and 25 % Scottish. First name Irish Last name Scottish! :teeth:
 
My dad's side of the family is Puerto Rican and Cuban.
My mom's side is like, Welsh, French, Swedish, etc.
 
I'm a little bit of alot.

I'm of course American but:

Dad's Side:
American
German
Polish

Mom's Side:
American
German
Irish
Polish
Hungarian
Italian
Turkish

So I'm a melting pot. :stir:
 
I'm Canadian.
My mothers side of the family is Scottish. My great-grandmother&father came down with my aunts from Scotland.

I don't know about my dad's side of the family. My dad doesn't know, and I don't ask my grandfather because I don't know what kind of relationship he had with them (I think his brother died in WWII so I don't want to stir up that horrible memory). But from what I can guess, we're English. Searching online I've found stuff like German & Norwegian, but that's so unlikely. English took most of the cake.

I'd say that depends on which part of Ireland you're talking about. Northern Ireland belongs to the UK, but Ireland is its own country. And there is a difference between Irish and Scottish.

Yeah, I'm from Southern Ireland (well, at least my ancestors are).
And my parents are always saying that Irish doesn't mean British, it means Irish.

And I know that Irish and Scottish are different, I was just surprised someone thought that Scottish and British were the same, I've never heard that before.

Scotland is part of the UK. The actual Irish shouldn't be called Scottish or British. Great Britain is an island that's made up of England, Wales, and Scotland. The English, Welsh, and Scottish are all British and they all are parts of the UK. Northern Ireland is not part of Britain but it is part of the UK.

Gotcha, that's what I was confused about, I wasn't sure if they were or not.
Thanks for clearing it up for me :]
 
mostly Irish and German and some very little Spanish (very little so i dont even look it)
 
Northern Ireland is part of the UK, not Britain as it says on me passport i am part of the Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Anyone who is English, Scottish or Welsh can be called under the term 'British'. Where as Northern Irish are just UK.

It is very confussling, i had to have a quick look at Wikipedia and i live here!

I however prefer to be called English (no disrespect to the other countries), just because i have lived in England all my life, and have only ever been to Wales, i have never been to Scotland or Ireland.

As far as i know i am 100% English, and darn proud!

God Save the Queen, and all that jazz!
 
update: after asking my parents apparently my dads side of the family comes from germany many generations back (so i am a little bit German! das ist gut!)

We havent a clue from my moms side, will find out from grandad!
 
I was born in the U.S.A.

Dad's Side
Italian
Polish
American

Mom's Side
American
Russian
Polish
 
I was born here but I'm Mexican, Spanish, and Italian...err pretty weird mix but hey, look at how I turned out..lol..
