I think it's a similar quandary with Arabs, minus the shared religion of course. I'm Tunisian and I consider myself Arab, but many other Tunisians consider themselves (ethnically) Maghrebi and/or Amazigh. Tunisia and the remaining Maghrebi countries are part of the Arab League, though. I'm sure it's even more complicated for Tunisian Jews :P

Complicated in a good way, because so many Tunisians committed to building a country for all Tunisians. For Lybian Jews, it's not complicated at all.

  Of course! I'm definitely proud of the heritage I share with my fellow Tunisians of Jewish faith.

  Even, in Tunisia, to quote Wikipedia: "In 1948 the Jewish population was an estimated 105,000, but by 2013 only about 900 remained"... That said, the 2014 Tunisian constitution and its protections for freedom of religion was a huge step forward, and gives me a good bit of hope for the future.

Do you have a good Tunisian tuna sandwich recipe? I recently had the opportunity to try one a few months ago. So good.

  Tuna is a staple of Tunisian street food, so you'll find a variety of different types of tuna sandwiches. If you are looking for a standard Tunisian sandwich, I asked my wife and she said this one looks good: https://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Tunisian-Tuna-Sandwich https://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Tunisian-Tuna-Sandwic.... Fricassee is another tasty Tunisian tuna-based sandwich, but it requires that you also prepare the bread: http://www.afooda.com/tunisian-fricassee-fricasse-roll/ http://www.afooda.com/tunisian-fricassee-fricasse-roll/
