Belonging to a people from Europe, is 100% genetic. Thus you can be part one people and part another people. An american with irish ancestry is just as irish as one living in Ireland. That's the traditional way. Even if you had only one ancester way back, that would still make you part that people.
Citizenship to the country of a people is something else. A person from another country with no genetic roots can become a citizen with completely equal rights.
Thank you for the always great podcasts!!
