;D ;D ;D

That one gave me a decent laugh. For those who say Pakistani IS an ethnicity, it is NOT. If were born, raised, and reside there, you are a Pakistani NATIONAL, nothing else, if not, you have NO relation to it but a language you've probably forgotten, maybe not. If you are Pakistani-born, you're probably Indian/Turkic/Persian/Mongol or other Central/Southern Asian ethnicity, or a combination as most likely.

As for me:

Nationality: Eh, I really don't have one. I'm not a US Citizen despite living here my whole life but a few years, my parents never applied as my dad still has his odd dreams of "returning home."

Birthplace: Jamame, Somalia (100 Miles south of Mogadishu).

Ethnicity: Hamito-Semitic (it's African, Arabic, European subcultures combined), same goes for most people in East Africa.

Languages: English, Spanish, Somali (sadly, no Arabic:uhwhat )

Where were you born? London, England.
What's your ethnic/ancestry? Afghanistan.
What languages u speak? English, Pashto, Urdu.
