Immigrants get “adopted” by a country

Just as Orphans get adopted by prospective parents

Then you get the International Adoptions which is bascially both combined… those probably have the most identity crisis…

    I immigrated when I was 3 from the UK to Australia. I also wonder how growing up in the UK would have affected me. I would be a completely different person. I’d only eat plain looking food. I’d think football is important. It’s weird to think about.

      In my alternate timeline, I most likely would not speak English…

      Or perhaps very poorly and with a heavy Cantonese accent.
