thaibel Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 As a Dutch guy i can say that yes we do sometimes make jokes about Belgians (Flemish part) just like they make jokes about us. The funny part is that in many language competitions (yes we have that lol), the Belgians (Flemish) are usually much better at it than the Dutch. But overall, we Dutch like Belgians much more that any other European person. Im not sure if the Belgians like us in the same way lol... Amst_Man, I LOVE YOU, I REALLY DO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ling_dtua_khaao Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'm a Germanoscottishafrican Canadian. Born in Nairobi, I had Kenyan citizenship until I was 21. Now I'm just British and Canadian - maybe could apply for German citizenship too through my mom, but can't be bothered, two passports is enough. (Unless I start an international life of crime.) --Ling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japhrodisiac Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I can't trace my ancestry too far, as most were wiped out in the Holocaust. I have put some of the puzzle together and our family appears to have lived on the Ukraine/Moldovan border until my great grandparents moved to Canada the year of the Russian revolution, 1917. All of the family that remained moved around the Ukraine until they were rounded up and ..... So, that makes me a Canuck I guess, and currently residing in mat-praoew central.

LudwigVonMises Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'm 1/8 Irish, 1/8 French, about 50% German, with the rest being English, Danish, Welsh, and a little (and by 'a little,' I mean 1/32 or less) Native American (not sure which tribe). If by nationality, you mean where I'm from, the answer would be American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
