Albanian Australians

Kosovan Australians or Kosovar Australians is a community of Kosovo-born people in Australia. The majority, as in Kosovo, are ethnic Albanians and belong to the wider Albanian diaspora. Their number is unknown since the 2006 Australian census did not record figures of people born in Kosovo [1] or of Kosovan ancestry. [2]

Trinidadians and Tobagonians People identified with the country of Trinidad and Tobago

Trinidadians and Tobagonians, colloquially known as Trinis or Trinbagonians, are the people who are identified with the country of Trinidad and Tobago. The country is home to people of many different national, ethnic and religious origins. As a result, Trinidadians do not equate their nationality with ethnicity, but with citizenship, cultural identification with the islands as whole, or either Trinidad or Tobago specifically. Although citizens make up the majority of Trinidadians, there is a substantial number of Trinidadian expatriates, dual citizens and descendants living worldwide, chiefly elsewhere in the Anglosphere.
