There's a difference between nationality and the so called ethnicity. Nationality tells you

which country the person is born in or is a citizen off, ethnicity attempts to describe the

person's racial makeup. If the child is born in Africa, then his nationality would be of a

African country, like Zimbabwe, Congo, South Africa, Ethiopia, etc.

If they are only temporarily living in the UK, the child would be considered a foreigner by the British, but probably wouldn't become an American until the US birth documentations were filled out.Answer.I would have thought the lucky child would have dual nationality as the birth would have to be registered where the child is born.Answer.That is a tricky question.

For the child to have UK citizenship the parents must be UK citizens or be settled in the UK.


Can an adopted child take on his adopted parents nationality?

Nationality generally means genetic origin. In this case, the child can take on the national cultures, the name common in the nationality, and otherwise identify with the nationality. However, taking on the parents' nationality isn't totally possible, since nationality has a DNA component. However, if the child's DNA in some ways parallels the DNA of one or both of the parents, then the nationality in the genetic sense already matches. In America in the recent past -- as late as the 1950s -- children were commonly 'paired' physically with adoptive parents so that if the parents wanted to keep the adoption a secret from the child, it would be possible. Today, however, this practice is not so common.


What if a baby was born in space what would be it's nationality?

Because pregnant astronauts are not allowed to travel in space during their pregnancy, this situation would never really arise. Hypothetically, however, I think that there would be two possibilities. 1. The child would automatically inherit whatever nationality the mother is. 2. The child's nationality would depend on which country the spacecraft belongs to. It's a very interesting question, though I doubt that we will ever actually need to know the answer.


What would a child from a biracial father of black and white descent and a black woman likely look like?

Not being an expert, my personal answer is that it depends on where you live. If you live in the US, for example, a place were we have a lot of baggage about black people, I would imagine the child would have the features most black people have- kinky hair, larger nose aperature, thicker lips etc... Someone from Africa, however, might feel that the child looks "white."
