Mongolian blood is pretty common because of all the raping and pillaging they did; I've heard that a very large portion of the eastern European population has some Mongolian blood.
According to my mum (who was the one who actually did all this research) they were able to pin it down to one specific area of Mongolia, which used to be under Russian rule at the time.

That's just what I've been told though.

I'm pretty boring, I'm white and Scottish. Though I will never identify myself as British, even if I technically am.

I'm apparently like 1/16th Irish, but I dont really take that into account.

I'd say white if someone asked me my race. Figure it'd be pretty obvious.
Ethnically I'm Swedish, with some Wallon and Indian gypsy blood in me. Not much though.

Race: white

How I describe myself; either British or Lancastrian, curiously I don't ever really think of myself as English.

I'm white with a splash of Irish and a pinch of Spanish.

Swedish, Musician, Atheist, Cat owner (Cat slave?), biker (as in motorcycles, not the lame regular kind) and asshole.
I think that about covers it all!

I know the thread was about race and along those lines, but answering the question just in the topic, this is what I came up with.

I'm an American, being born in America to American parents and so on.

My ancestry is almost completely Scottish and Penobscot (Native American tribe in northern new england), so when people ask my ancestry, ethnicity or race, I answer as such (except on official documents; I don't want hand outs for being part native).

I sometimes refer to myself as a Vermonter (though Vermonters take offense because I was born in Massachusetts and as such am a flatlander) or a New Englander (more accurate, since my family goes back in New England for generations). But I'm not that particular most of the time.

My "racial" makeup is more of concern to me due to the tendency of certain diseases and conditions to favour certain peoples.

I'm the whitest of white, but if you ask me enough, I'll say I'm British and Russian. My family comes from (somewhere in the England island) and (somewhere probably western Russia), as far as we know, and while there might be others thrown in, I dunno. Good enough. Now let me get back to my tea. (Did you know Russia consumes a whole lot of tea? They're just not as famous for it as the Brits.)

I'd go with Caucasian, British on this one.

While my ancestry reads Polish, German, Swiss and British, I identify as a white Brit, mostly for social reasons, though.

I don't really identify by race, myself or others. As ridiculous as it may sound having grown up in an environment with almost no "racial diversity" has really made race such a non-issue for me that I am leaning towards complete racial-apathy. I truly can't understand why anyone can feel so strongly about there race.

If pressed I would recognize that I am probably descended from Celts from Scotland and Ireland as well as Scandinavians from Norway and Denmark. Much like 90% of people here.

I hate when people talk about this. You always get the one Jackass who says "Half Chinese half Indian half Xenomoprh half Argonian half Dwarf half German half Kangaroo half Irish half Scottish half fudhfia on my dads side" and then talk like they actually know anything about the races/cultures they just mentioned.


As far as I know I'm either German or French or some combination of the two. However when people ask I just say Canadian as that's where I was born and raised.

I mostly go by Mulatto-american. I put it on all paperwork i can. We Mulatto-Americans dont get enough coverage in the global scheme of things. Products are always aimed at Caucasians or African-americans. But what about what Mulatto-americans want huh? We dont get a say in things?

White British. Granted I'm at least one 8th French, but traditionally that merely serves to make me more British. Other than that the furthest afield I have family members from is Newcastle.

i identify as a 'spectator'. but if you're interested in my body, it's classified as human. if you're interested in my dna, i have french, italian, blackfoot verified and X unverified ancestors.

the whole thing is uninteresting to me though. who i am and where i'm from is of no significance compared to where i'm going.
