Where were you born and where did you family come from? 😃

I was born in the U.S. but both of my parents were born in Mexico.
My great great grandparents from my grandpa's side were from Morocco. While my great great great.. grandparents from my grandma's side were from Sweden. Besides that I know I'm also Native American (As most Mexicans are).

I was born in the United States, but I have a pretty large Germanic background with a dash of Irish and Polish thrown in.

My maternal Grandmother is Malay. My maternal Grandfather is Chinese.

My paternal Great Grandfather is from the Middle East, my paternal Great grandmother is Malay.

I'm fully, completely, 100% Ukrainian... (through blood)

I was born in America, but before that, EVERYONE in my family was born in Ukraine. They were completely Ukrainian

Quite boring, isn't it? XD

Well...
My great grandpa even fought in world war 2!

I really have no idea what I am. All I know is I am at least 35% German and 20% Irish.
Live in America 😉

I'm Canadian. My family on my father's side came from Ireland in the early 1800s and my family on my mother's side came from France in the mid 1600s.

I also am of Metis origin. Basically my family has lived in Canada for a very long time.

@jewelz Ooh! I made a essay about this in school and got a big, fat A.

I'm Chinese. PURE Chinese. My Mama and Baba are from the same province: Tainjin. We're Mandirin. My parents imagrated to the US in 2001. The next year, 2002, they had me. I had a brother (@status 😸) but I never knew I did. China is harsh. Every country has it's secrets. My dad was a security guard/hotel manager but he still only earned money for two to come. My mom an architect. My dad was in a family of 3 (my mom 4, she's a twin 😸). He had a younger brother who was the bravest and went first. He went with his wife. My dad went to America first and lived with my uncle. Then, my mom came. The four agreed to sell their house for a bigger one. That was the house I grew up in (tear sliding down my face: We moved). My brother, my parents agreed, was still in China with my grandparents taking care of him until there was money for him to come. My aunt and uncle had a daughter but they sent her back to China and she lived there 'til she was 3 and came back. The house was getting too crowded so my parents gave my aunt and uncle money and they got another house (heck! I don't remember the old house before they moved! O.O). My brother came to the US by himself when we got enough money... yeah. That's the story of my life.

I'm Chinese American.

My whole family were all born in China, except me. I was born in the US. 8D I speak Mandarin, but I can also (barely) speak a dialect of it. Yup. English was my first language.
