if you’re european, nationality is an arbitrary thing measured in a distance of about 100km depending on dialect.
the one’s who care about this should not really care about this, and you should feel free to ignore them

It’s because we are a nation of descendants of transplants from other countries, living among actual transplants. Anyone can become American. This question of your nationality and where your people came from to get here, it’s the beginning of a dance that establishes our social fabric. That’s the PR at least. These days with crazy man doing crazy things, it’s not quite how it used to be.
