I have to disagree with the whole "It's in your blood thing" because honestly it isn't. You might be related to someone from country xy but that doesn't mean you're from there.

Of course it's different if say your grandparents/parents are from xy and you grew up learning both cultures but it's not in your blood. Just cause you share some genes with someone from somewhere doesn't mean you are from the same country.

Also what if someone was say French but lived a considerable time in Spain, then came back to France and had children. Can those children claim spanish heritage? Since after all their mother lived in that country and absorbed big parts of their culture.

On another note I don't see what exactly makes you "culturally irish" I mean a person who doesn't doesn't take part in any irish tradition but grew up and lived in ireland all his life is still Irish right?

I really hope I'm not offending you here, I know this is probably a touchy topic and there are a lot of personal feelings involved. My nearly complete lack of identifying with my own country probably doesn't help much in understanding other people in this aspect^^

not offended, just still in disagreement with you. identities like "german" and "irish" are less nationalities and more ethnicities, which can be carried genetically through heritage. if people are identifying with nationalities then i would agree that they have no real reason to be if they never lived there, but ethnically i definitely understand and support.

so in your french-spanish scenario, the kids can't call themselves spanish because they're not genetically spanish and they can't claim nationality to spain either. if the french parents were ethnically spanish then their kids are by default part spanish too.
