I'm genuinely curious, what is the point you're trying to make?

Do you think American doesn't have cultural differences within? Or that those cultures don't correlate at all with geography? Or with ancestry?

It's the international part, if there's such a difference between west, east, south and north it just doesn't seem necessary to say where you Mr grandma's from

Edit: I want to move to the Netherlands, if I have kids there they'll be Dutch

They’ll be Dutch when they’re in America, and American when they’re in the Netherlands. So it goes.

They would have Dutch passports and be Dutch citizens, yes. And if they live there for long enough they would take on the culture. But let me ask you this. If you breed a German Shepard, with a German Shepherd anywhere in the world, what do you get?
