JK Rowlings Nationality is ENGLISH
What's all this discussion about JK's nationality? She is English. Fact. End of. Her CITIZENSHIP is British. Fact. End of. The UK of GB & NI passport is the only one in the world that ansers the "Nationality" question with a different answer - hence it always says "British Citizen". No other passport in the world answers the question with "citizen" and that's because every other county states the nationality, eg French, German etc. The UK is a political union of four nationalities, but in the Wikipedia question, it asks "nationality", therefore JKR is English. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.110.2.102 (talk) 02:43, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Please read the archives regarding here nationality/Ethnicity. It's been discussed to the death. We don’t need another. 88.109.238.194 (talk) 19:11, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
Can I also add JK, has stong connections with Scotland, where she lives. This makes her more BRITISH than English. Does any one agree?
Légion_d'honneur
JKR has been awarded with the Légion_d'honneur by the French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
