yes, Jonathon. I think this is the right way, to create <extend-entity> to include Nationality and Language. I mean to say, Nationality like child's place of birth or bloodline. This is personally for all life and can not be changed. I not mean citizenship. A citizenship can be changed or one person can have two or more citizenships. In this case concactmech with purpose is better idea. But in different country, citizenship and nationality can be different means or they can be the same. I think to use <extend-entity> and to include this fields.
