determines who you are...

For example if your parents are both irish but you were born in england, you can't be considered as an irish person, people say " well you cant be irish if you were born in england"

I think its bullshit, i think who you are is based on your genes and your blood, whats inside of you!!! not whats around you, how can the country change who you genetically are!

it cant... what do you think?

Your environment influences you incredibly. Unless your Irish parents raise you with Irish heritage, you're going to be English.

I think ti determines in some way.  You will be speaking with an accent you hear often but will be the same genetically.
