Who or which

Hi, Treasure,

We can find both "the nationalities who" and "the nationalities which," but I think the first phrase refers more clearly to "people of different nationalities," while the second one refers to "different national identities."

A. Who

B. Which

C. Both

I'd choose "who" in your sentence, mainly because the verbs "live" and "share (their culture)" can be predicated of people rather than abstract concepts.

Hi, Treasure—I think Gustavo has made a good argument for choosing "who" in this particular sentence. As usual, I don't feel obligated to confine myself to a fill-in-the-blank task, rejoicing in my freedom to revise a sentence at will.

(1) It's a chancefor people of all the different nationalities in Dublin to share their culture.

(2) It's a chance for all the different nationalities of Dubliners to be shared.

I'd say that saying a person of a certain nationality lives somewhere is different from saying that the nationality itself lives there. And, yes, I am aware someone could object that some definitions identify nationality with a group of people. Personally, I'd say that nationalities are not sentient except when personified.
