If you were a country, which one would you be?

My great gramp came from Finland back when it was still a part of the Russian Empire.

Well heck! One of my ancestors came from Finland. Whoa.., we might be related!

That question doesn't make any sense.

@Vortex and Wayne: It's not Iceland. You're not related just because you have ancestry from the same nationality.

To be fair, I don't make any sense on the best of days. It's like my brain leaked out of my ear one morning and now I have stupor powers.

Hetalia anyone?

Pfft it spam nothing makes sense!

And you never know! There is a chance (but yes a small one) that we are related.

Perhaps. My great gramp was a Finn of the Swedish variety, if you need a little bit more clarification.

The possibilities are endless!

I could be descended from Genghis Khan, for all that I know. Even though I have no Asian ancestry at all.

Aren't most Asians descended from him or something?

I would be the Roman Empire.
No one is quite as big as me!!!

To torment you, I'd imagine. Don't mind me. I'm still a newbie and getting to know all you weirdos like me.

Apparently for every 200 hundred people in the world there is 1 descendant from Genghis khan

His moustache was a pair of handlebars for the ladies.

By the way ActRaiser, 16 other empires beat out the Romans in terms of size. This is according to Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_empires

In case you can't access Wikipedia for whichever reason, that's the Brits, Mongols, Russians, Spanish, Umayyads, Qing, Yuan, French, Abbasids, Portuguese, Rashiduns, Brazilians, Achaemenids, Japanese, and Sassanids. The Ming and Han Dynasties are tied with the Romans, apparently.
