And hey, my ancestors moved to North America well over a hundred years before America was founded. Always tickled me a little that I immigrated to a country where some of my ancestors lived before the country even existed. That's definitely an interesting time, 100 years before George Washington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a random example, I am Acadian. So where is my "homeland"? Is it Quebec, the "French" area in North America? Is it New Brunswick, where my ancestors fled to after being deported? It it Louisiana, which was set asside for them as a place to live by the British after they were deported? It is Nova Scotia, where the Acadians settled before being conquered and deported? Is it Normandy, where my ancestors lived in Europe before settling in Nova Scotia? Is it Denmark, where my ancestors lived before conquering Normandy? Or do I go back further? Or maybe I should live in Great Britain since my ancestors were forced to become subjects of the Crown? And I'm Roman-Catholic, so maybe Italy is my homeland? Especially stupid because for every single one of those places, some other group has a better claim as it being their "homeland" than I do, because it turns out it isn't that rare for multiple ethnic groups to have competing legitimate claims over the same area. Anyway, I ended up moving to Washington State, which is objectively not "my homeland" but, hey, weather's nice here. The U.N assigned the Land of Israel as the country of Israel, country for jews, who wanted to leave peacefully with arabs, but were constantly attacked, starting in 1948, just like this time, we are the one being attacked and yet they are the one screaming "look at those jews" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
