Crazy right?! I'm from, what was the territory of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, until Jamaica went independent in '62. Cayman is still a constitutional monarchy of the UK, like Canada. Independent but with the Queen/King still on the money.

A naturalized American but with dual citizenship in the Cayman Islands, but without the billions to hide there, so it's never mattered to me!! lol

So I'm descended from the last two empires with a mix of, most likely Indian, from one of their old colonies that colonized the world along with them.
