Glendale, in Los Angeles County, in Southern California, on the Left coast of the United States, in the Northern Hemisphere of Earth, orbiting a main sequence G2 star unexcitingly called the Sun.
Presently circling the heart of the Milky Way Galaxy, allbeit in the weak wrist of a random spiral arm, Said Milky Way being located in the Virgo local cluster of Galaxies--somewhere in the Cosmos.
Remember, where ever we go, There we are.

"The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'."

Is anyone keeping a track of the nationality totals any more?

Were we supposed to? Sorry, missed that meeting.
Unfortunately, some of the people listed aren't active much now, 'least I haven't seen their monikers recently...

sorry, been away for quite a while & there used to be someone keeping a tally. H'ever, understand what you say - I think many left at "the" handover, etc., so tally would be nigh on impossible now - should have thought before speaking

Sorry, Shirps! I was being flippant, not critical!
It's true, though, that many a familiar name from this convo are no longer seen in these parts.
If they'd just changed names, the list of posters would have the current ones, so I fear that a lot of the old posters have indeed moved along.
Seems to me, though, (and this is totally off the top of my head!) that the proportions are roughly 55% British, 20% Scottish and Irish, 10% from Down-Underish realms, 5-10% Americans, with the remainder from Continental Europe, Asia and a scattering from everywhere else.
Or not.
The top of my head is no where near reliable at times, I fear.

You're forgiven 
!
Must admit, having thought (very hard) about it, whoever began trying to do this did face an impossible task. Still, could be interesting to keep an eye on it - there may be someone from some real outlying region 
that comes on board.
At least you look to the top of your head & not your feet
