Technically, it would make you a British citizen. As for example, both parents are of an African origin- Ghana. Therefore, you would classify yourself as an African. You r parents would be Ghanaian, and British, which is of dual nationality; if they were born there and immigrated to Great Britain. If you were to have both a British passport and a Ghanaian one, you would be of dual nationality too. You would then classify yourself as a British Citizen, with a Ghanaian background.

Can you play for northern Ireland if your born in another country but your great grandfather was Irish?

You can as long as you are a citizen of N. Ireland. As it was your great grandparent then your parents need to be registered as a N. Ireland citizen by the time of your birth. If they were not then you will need to work in Ireland for 5 years under a work permit. This then entitles you to gain a N.Irish citizenship, and so you can play for N.Ireland
