My nationality is German. I have German and French ancestors.
A citizen of the United States, my paternal grandparents came from Slovenia (formerly a part of Yugoslavia) and my mother's family has been in this country since before the Revolutionary War!
Let's see...
Personality wise,
85% feline
10% canine
and 5% snake (I am an attorney, afterall).
I am, by birth, American.
By blood? German, Irish, English, Welsh.....
How can you be an attorney with just 5% snake. That should hardly be enough for a tax office employee:p
Wouldn't it be interesting to know what all our ancestors were?:p
But I'm Canadian, I was born here. My sister was born in Hong Kong though. They came to Canada just before I was born:D
I am Welsh, born and raised here in north of Wales.
I know that my maternal grandfather was English and grandmother Welsh and what part of England and Wales they came from, but that is as far as my ancestral knowledge goes.
American
And I'm 50% Filipino (Father's side) and 50% Italian(Mother's side)
Both of my father's parents were born and raised in the Philippines before moving to the states. My maternal grandmother was born and raised in Rome, Italy before moving to the states when she married my grandfather. My maternal grandfather's parents were originally from Sicily, Italy before they moved to the states.

I'm Canadian.
My mother's family are Finnish and my father's family are Scottish and Irish. So I grew up speaking English, understanding and speaking some Finnish and understanding a small bit of Gaelic.

I'm danish and my grandparents were danish, both sides. Before that, I'm not sure, but someone on my father's side centuries ago was german I think.

My nationality is American. I'm mainly German with a little bit of English thrown in. When my parents were in Norway people kept coming up to my mom asking her things in their language. I guess she looks Norweigian so I may also have some of that in me as well. :)
Gosh what a lovely great big melting pot we have on Pet-talk!:)
