Passports, borders, economy... It is like defining who you are by futile definitions.

But you're speaking of nationality and heritage...which one has to do with ethnicity?

Ethnicity is your national/cultural group. So he's Swedish.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

So I've been thinking about this whenever someone asks me where I'm from. What decides which ethnicity someone belongs to? Both my parents are kurdish but I was born here in Sweden. So, if someone asks me where I'm from what is correct to respond? I was born in sweden so if we speak literally I am from sweden, am I not? But as a person am I swedish or am I kurdish? Is it correct to say both? What decides if I'm swedish or not, is it my genetics? Is it where I'm born? Is it where my parents are from?

Am I a kurd from Sweden?

You're acutally Irish.

And so are you Nymphadora.
