While this humble American is surely wrong
; I'd like to point out that Phillip is also German. No Greek blood at all - House of Schweswig-Holstein-Sonmderberg_Glucksberg. All his sisters married Nazis. Still. they married better than Melania - poor thing.
Not really Paborn. He was born in Greece, as was his father.

I think she's been saying "I dont" ever since their son was conceived which would account for The Donald's permanently foul mood. I wonder what the reason for Scottish Guy's is?

Perhaps, but her eggs are delicious.
Yes, I know but the monarchy was imported and never intermarried with anyone who was ethnically Greek. People here tend to say the Queen is German, but if one says that then Phillip is German. If we use nationality alone then the Queen is English and he is Greek. I know it gets a bit sloppy but when the Queen is called German we are really discussing the family tree and interrelationships among royal houses. The Queen's father was of Hanoverian and Saxe Coburg descent - he married a Scottish noblewoman, finally injecting some British blood into the lline. Prince William was the first royal born in a couple of hundred years who had English blood. Phillip and hid line is absolutely pure North German. That's all I mean.
Paborn. One can assign almost any nationality to the royal houses of Europe depending on how far back you wish to go. Under your model the Queen is French because she can trace her family tree back to William the Conqueror. The reality is that royal houses show total and unwavering loyalty to the country in which they reign. Including sending their children off to fight in wars. Therefore the royal houses can probably all be lumped together under the 'nationality' of Royal.
Actually, I agree with you. My point was most posters here poke at the Queen with being German, when she is as English as farmhouse Cheddar, but then mix and match to make whatever point they want. Your model is the same one I use - nationality.
