[quote=Anonymous][quote]I've learned not to be too interested anymore when someone tells me they're "German". And I've stopped asking where in Germany they're from because the answer is usually "My great-great-great-great grandmother......" [b]Never heard a European claim a long gone heritage from some ancestor, and call themselves "Polish" or "French" when they didn't even grow up there, for example.[[/b]/quote] I can't speak for Western Europe, but will say that it is VERY common in parts of Eastern Europe for someone to say "Well, I'm Hungarian by passport but my family is Ruthenian." Tatars definitely identify as Tatar before they identify as Russian/Ukrainian, even if they didn't grow up in Crimea or (fake) Tatarstan. [/quote]
