Thanks.
I do think the shire plays a large part in who the Hobbits are but I agree with you that there is more to it. Where we live e very much shapes us we are all still individuals with our own strengths as each hobbit is. Also each race seems to have inherent quailities that make them different and Hobbits from other places than the shire probably share alot of the Shire hobbit traits.
