Pardon me for pointing this out, but I'm coming up with 9/8 of a person there Danman :P
Someday, when we look back on this, we'll both laugh nervously and change the subject. More is good. All is better.

I'm German, Russian, Irish, Scottish, Czechoslovakian, Austrian and Polish.

Not sure about percentages, but I do know that the three biggest out of that pie chart are German, Scottish and Russian.

There's an inside joke in the family that my Nana married a "Mutt", because she is pure 100% Scottish and my Papa was Russian, Czechoslovakian, Polish and Austrian.  :P




EDIT: I double checked with my mom, no Hungarian. Oh, well good thing I asked!  :mowwink

Hey, a fellow Slovak!

I'm 1/4 Polish, 1/4 Slovak, 1/4 Anglo, 1/4 Saxon (seriously, I've got English and German heritage).  Fun fact, my grandfather was Slovak, but both of his parents were American.  They both immigrated to the US, not knowing each other, discovered each other and had my grandfather.

Edit: I also have some Scottish in there somewhere.

Hmm, it seems there is a lot of czechoslovak blood on Clockwork forums.
We had some family in USA too ,about 30 years ago - they emigrated during the twenties. And we still have some in argentina, same time.
The first republic sucked, apparently.

It can mean a lot of things - maybe just some person had him on his head or back , and then he descended

This is an ethnic heritage discussion, not a Species discussion.

Aisha deCabre

According to my parents, I'm nearly four quarters of different: Irish, Scotch/English, German, and French.  Heh, currently a hybrid European born in America.

...Well heck, that's quite a chunk of the population here anyway. :3

Otherwise, as agreed with many here who gave that answer, I am in fact 100% pureblooded Homo Sapien.  With perhaps a mind more sympathetic to other species.  :rolleyes

If it was, I'd inform you that I'm advance scout from another race that was sent to monitor your planet and see if there were any redeeming qualities about your species, but UNFORTUNATELY, the report I sent seemed to give the High Command the impression that the planet should be quarantined and they're refusing to send a ship back to pick me up. So thanks... Thanks. A. Whole. Friggin'. Bunch.

*Cough.* Whoops... I mean, that's my char for an RP... Somewhere... Yeah, totally.

Native American (Cherokee, I think, for specifics.) and Irish for the most part. (At least, on my mom's side.) To be brutally honest, I've never really bothered to remember, nor have I really asked. To be blunt, I'm here, and that's all that really matters. Oh, and due to said heritage, I've got a pretty nasty temper. (Normally, it's pretty well contained, though.)

Kafzeil

I'm a mix of English, Scottish, Irish, German, and Ukrainian. SO yes, I have a big ass family too. :B

Mostly Irish, Italian and French, with smatterings of Scottish, English, and Native American (specifically, Huron).

Mostly? Irish, Ukrainian, Polish, and British. I've also got touches of Italian, a dose of Native American (Mohawk, Bear Clan), and a wee bit of Scottish and Welsh mixed in with a bunch of other things. (My family is huge.)

Oh yes, and pirate.

What? Pirate totally counts as an ethnicity. One of my ancestors was a privateer during the American Revolutionary War. Legalized pirate.  :P

Unsilenced

13th generation American by paternal lineage, (father's father's father's...) so my family name has been in America since before it was America, IIRC.

Other than that, 1/4 or so German, 1/8 Korean/Chinese/Native American (they don't know which), 1/8 British and the rest... well... I have no idea/it's too diluted to be worth mentioning.

Mostly Mexican, some Spanish, and at some point I had Jewish ancestors as well.  Don't know what else.

Hey, maybe our ancestors were allies!  My ancestors were arms traders!  Did your ancestors collaborate with Benedict Arnold, too?

Hmm! I don't know; I'd have to consult the family records to know for sure. That's cool, though! c:

Baal Hadad

Heh, at least one of my ancestors was a priest, and some of my ancestors were first cousins....

If they'd been upstanding citizens I wouldn't exist....

well , the great grandmother of my grandmother and the great grandmother of my grandfather were sisters.
Funnily enough they both were from different villages

Yep. Full-out East Asian here. I kinda expected more around here, considering the nature of DMFA...

Speak for yourself. I'm proudly of weight, a proper weight.

Also, kill whitey. *cough* I mean, yay multiculturalism.
