I love telling Welsh patriots that their patron saint was an Arab.

I think that was 2010.

No way. Syria Palaestina is a fucking made up country. He was Roman...for the most part.

So is America.
And it wasn't a country, it was a province.
> In c.390, Syria Palaestina was reorganised into three administrative units: Palaestina Prima, Secunda, and Tertia (First, Second, and Third Palestine), part of the Diocese of the East.[17] Palaestina Prima consisted of Judea, Samaria, the coast, and Peraea with the governor residing in Caesarea. Palaestina Secunda consisted of the Galilee, the lower Jezreel Valley, the regions east of Galilee, and the western part of the former Decapolis with the seat of government at Scythopolis. Palaestina Tertia included the Negev, southern Jordan—once part of Arabia—and most of Sinai with Petra as the usual residence of the governor. Palestina Tertia was also known as Palaestina Salutaris.[18]
ie: Arabian. Roman in a context like that means nothing.

The Roman empire, but that still has no relevance to his ethnicity. American isn't an ethnicity either, for a whateveryoucallit. Analogy I think.

So then, hypothetically, if he held a driver license it would read Rome and not Arabia. If being a Roman had no impact on ethnicity then what was Caesar? It's either one or the other.

It would.
And afaik Roman wasn't an ethnicity. The Roman empire was many different places all cobbled together, with their own cultures and ethnicities. It did have its own culture and justice system and everything eventually, but...not an ethnicity.

How very convenient that it had it's own laws, customs, traditions, etc but did not have an ethnicity. Just sayin. Doesn't have me convinced.
