Born to/of
Hi, there
I’d like to know if I should say “to” or “of” in this sentence.
The following people are Brazilian by birth: those born in the Federative Republic of Brazil, even if OF/TO foreign parents, provided that they are not at the SERVICE of their country;
Which of the two is right? And does it sound to to say “at the service of their country”?
Thank you

Yes, it sounds natural saying "to foreign parents".

I think it would be more natural to say to. The latter part of the sentence with service is also fine.
