What countries and nationalities make up the membership of ATS/BTS?

IMHO, one of the best things about this site is the ability to interact with such a globally diverse membership.

Add yourself to our ATS member's map

Australian here, (born and bred) of Syrian & Lebanese/French descent

Born in Australia
Mother is Scottish
Father is English
But i swear my brother is from mars

I'm from Bosnia, but of hungarian descent actually, somewhat famous one.
Long time ago few members of the famous Arpad family from Hungaria came to Bosnia. They came to convert the pagans to Christianity but instead they themselves converted to Islam and stayed there
There is some jewish and some gipsy blood mixed in there somewhere too...

I'm English but I've always wanted to trace my family tree back to see where my roots are.

Another chap from England here.

My dad is doing some research into our family and has so far traced our family to back to Australia and India.

I am a North-Eastern European mutt. Mostly Ukranian, Polish and German.

However being Canadian now, all traces of my previous culture have been washed away with beer, hockey and the CBC. I do however still eat perogies and stuff made from pickled pigs feet called "headcheese". Yum.

Ireland here, could have been the first Irish person on ATS, cant be sure, theres only 4 million of us so I guess I stood a good chance

Mums side = Scottish/Irish

What she said..


Scottish mother with black eyes and hair and father Irish, red hair green eyes.

I got the middle.. just call me beige

USA-American here, baby. The most annoying person to come from this site. At least I think I am. lol I just love BSB, I was born and raised here, I'm part german and Irish, and a little Cherokee. But at the end of the day, it's very simple, I'm not rich or that powerful, but get BSB fans behind me, these ppl could be put in their place, who misuse power.Then me and BSB, except Nick and AJ for certian reasons could:w:, and you guys could all too*hugs everyone on ATS/PTS/BTS*.

I am an American through and true.
I have have a gallon of German blood in me too.
Due to the keen eye that I have for the Motherland.
I also have the blood of a Dutchman in me too.
This is because of my hair and eye color.
Plus, I got a little bit of Cherokee in me, true!
I got an attitude and I know how to use it!

I'd definitely recommend doing that, it will probably throw up some interesting suprises! A relative researched our family tree, and traced it back as far as the 16th century: interesting ancestors include Hednesford's Victorian version of a Goodfella' (later found that I used to live on the site where his mansion was), lots of publicans, and some Germans!

well...im a Mancunian ( a british person hailing from the awesome city of MADCHESTER!!)..living in Portugal.....with roots deep in Scotland...where i was a king and had lots of fine scotch honeys that used to feed me loveley pieces of lamb dripping in mint sauce and then make me tend to their 'needs'...but i had to abdicate to the Algarve and pertend to be just a normal person.

Regards.

I am glad someone has finally asked me this question.

My assistant, Mr. Beezer and I were just discussing this in length last Tuesday over a piping hot cup of Earl Grey.

I am originally from the Ulan Bator region (born but not raised there). My parents were there doing work for the Central Government Procurement Office when I was brought into this world.

At the tender age of just 3 years old, I was forced to pack my wares and move onto the island of Lakshadweep not far from the Hyderabad province. It was here that our family “rescued” Mr. Beezer who had been won in a high stakes poker game 5 months the prior. He had resided in England but was the stakes for an oil baron from Cyprus.

After grabbing Beezer and running from the local law, we found ourselves in the Cape town area. Who knew Mr. Beezer could find diamonds like that! That is how the family fortune has reached such a large bit. We hauled our diamond booty to Canberra and sold it trough a broker from Kuala Lumpur.

After hiding out until my 25 birthday, Mr. Beezer and myself bid my parents goodbye and we made the journey to Dar es Salaam. We have remained there many years and up until this day.

I like to refer to myself as a world traveler, at home only in cyberspace, and Mr. Beezer can still make one hell of a cup of Earl Grey!

ok ,
Dad's side: Russian Jewish, Irish, English, and Scottish

Mum's Side: Cajun French, Persian French, German Jewish, Irish, and English, i believe.

Though i have the blood of many nations in my veins, I'm mostly Cajun French (guess where i'm from ) and i am particularly proud of my Russian and Cajun roots.

Blood ties are strong, times when i can feel the Irish in me, or the English, etc.
