lol.. yeah. I always thinking different cartoons design are just inspired by nationalities.

Maybe Nicole is British and Richard is American. And their kids are British-American. Sorry... but I don't think that makes any sense. But by your logic I'd be British-American, too. Yes. From your great(15x) grandfather. You wouldn't know.

So, any better theory? Well, my mom was born in England, so was my grandma and her mother and so on (I'm the first generation American on my mother's side).

But yeah, I usually think of being Canadian, American, British, Australian etc. as a "membership" of a country. I usually think of race as affecting the way you look and your genes. Like, you can be white and be born in or a citizen of South Africa. Racially, you're some form of European, but your nationality would be considered South African because you were born there.

Going back to my point of Canadian, American, British etc. of being nationalities, all countries (except for England) were originally occupied by Native Americans/ American Indians. Australia was originally occupied by Aboriginals (they looked really dark with blonde hair- again, probably not the image that pops into your mind when you think of an Australian.). The people you see occupying these countries all originally came from England, Spain, Italy, Portugal, France etc.
