She wasn't born in Greece or Greek territory, are you saying because her father was Greek that made her Greek or something? That's also your argument for George, doesn't that make every person on earth African then?

Not if they have a child there, Boris Johnson has recently had to renounce his American nationality because he was born there while his parents were on holiday

Indians living in the British Empire didn't stop being Indian.

That's completely different, if Indians come to Britain and have a child that child is British.

The fact they were both Greek is evidenced by their names. If they were actual Romans, they'd have had Roman names. NOT Greek names.

As did many other civilisations, however at the time in question and hundreds of years surrounding, it was dominated by the Romans.

He was on the emperor's guard, that's basically the most important position a soldier could hold in the Roman empire, and you think they didn't see him a a citizen?

Being 1/4 English I can only celebrate 6hrs worth of St George's day. So I may have a beer, and a curry, and pick a fight with someone who supports a random football team, urinate in the street, and throw up on myself. :p
