    My nationality is Australian.

    I am first generation Australian with my parents coming from England. I also have Scottish and Irish ancestors.

    Scottish, with a bit of Irish thrown in there too.

    I can trace my roots back to Mary Queen of Scots :bigsmile:

    Oh I was just going with the actual definition of the word, not really what people take it as. I tend to see people confusing the two words pretty often.

    It's like for example, if I were to travel outside the US and someone were to ask my nationality, if I said I was Haitian they would think I'm born in Haiti when I'm not.

    I don't think it really matters for the purposes of this thing. I found it pretty interesting to learn how people have moved around from country to country. I certainly wasn't confused. I do not think they were either. They were pretty clear about their nationality AND their ethnicity.

    American... While many born here identify their nationality by the birthplace of their ancestors, a lot of us do not.

    Paternal Grandfather's side is English (Stanton). Paternal Grandmother's side is German (Schaub). Maternal Grandfather's side is French-Canadian (Verville--his father's family, Charboneau--his mother"s family). Maternal Grandmother's side is a little bit of everything, but I think primarily Jewish (Burns). Does this mean I'm 25% this, or 25% that? Nope. It means I'm 100% American! :drinker:
