Whats your heritage?

[Buzzer]

One thing I've always found funny about the Irish though is that we seem to get around a lot, for such a small country so many around the world claim at least one Irish ancestor

You actually are really onto something. One of the very first things I learned in demographics in college was about self-reporting, and the example the professor used regarding how ethnic backgrounds regarded as "cool" to have will be over-reported in self-identification, and ones "not cool" to have will be under-reported, and that in the U.S., is that five times as many people claim Irish ancestry as could possibly have it based on the number of immigrants who came to the U.S. from Ireland. Of course it used to be a very "not cool" ethnic group to belong to, but these days it's just sorta "cutely" associated with "yay, beer, fighting, Notre Dame, ST. PADDY'S DAY!", and is very 'cool' to have.

There is a similar over-reporting of Cherokee blood, because many families in America have a grandma or aunt or mother who at one point in the 60's was a hippie who tried to trace any sort of link to Pocahontas (who I guess they thought was Cherokee..?) or any "native Princess" when "being in tune with Nature" and having Native blood was temporarily super cool during that time period. (Why just Pocahontas and the Cherokee specifically became the posterchild of the flower power imagery, I don't know.)
