Further, would rather identify yourself by your nationality (Canadian, American, Brit, etc) or by your hometown or city or county?

Personally, I'm far more likely to say I'm a Texan than that I'm an American. Even with members of other countries, they tend to know where Texas is since it's so large and has such a sense of pride in statehood. I don't really have a hometown, since the longest I've lived in one place is 5 years, and that's the house I was in for high school as well as the dorm I've lived in at school. Here at Texas A&M, people ask me where I'm from, and I answer with my dorm name, as it's an ingrained sense of identity for me, and home to the greatest group of men I've ever known outside my father and paternal grandfather.
