Awesome. We have them in most major cities, they're always great. Hopefully I get to go to one this year. Regular christmas markets are great too.

One thing that is common in the US is talking about heritage.  A lot of people will say they are German, because their family came from Germany to the US some time in the past 200+ years.  

But I feel like that probably doesn't happen in Europe.

I learned that supposedly pre WW2, German was the second most popular language in America. It was only because people didn't want to be associated with Germany during the war that the language fell out of style.

It doesn't really. no, at least not among white europeans. Europeans of middle eastern, african or asian descent are probably more like to talk and think about those things, but that's probably linked to the fact, that in many european countries people with heritages from those regions have problems being recognized as Europeans even if they were born and raised in a europeans country.
