I'm Canadian, but my family is half Dutch and half Italian. They came over to Canada following world war II. What are you? :)

Well, I'm fully Polish, maybe with some distant German ancestors. But it's weird as I dislike German language in general :P

English with English parents, grandparents and great grandparents. The generation before that was mostly English, but mother's mother's mother's parents (my great great grandparents) were Irish.

I think there's a few other things in there too from that generation and back. I'm brown haired, brown eyed and tan easily so I'm clearly not fully British/Celtic stock. :P

A bit yeah. Hardly though, I'm just not virtually see through like a lot of them. :P

I'm really not that tanned, I look pale next to this half Italian lad I know, he looks permanently tanned. :P

Some guys look good tanned but some not (even better when pale). It depends.
Same applies to girls :P

I'm American ("Merica). I'll probably be the minority over here but my parents are from Vietnam :P and they came over to America during the end of the Vietnam War. Both are successful engineers for the US Air Force so I guess you can say that war is money for us? Lol

With me swimming all year, my hair starts to lighten up to like a chocolate light brown :P so with my natural tan I get mistaken to be either Mexican/Hispanic or some natural tan European. And I'm taking Spanish classes so that doesn't help haha

They're Vietnamese. No they're not Europeans but somehow I ended up looking like one :P and they moved here because of the communist takeover in Vietnam back in the late 60s.

My mom's side is 100% Canadian, my dad's side is mostly Northern Irish. I have brown hair and extremely dark brown eyes (they look black from a distance), but some of my facial hairs grow red if I grow a beard.

I'm Greek. Three quarters of my great-grandparents were ethnic Greek immigrants from: Crimea (then part of the Russian Empire, now in Ukraine), Instabul, and deep Asia Minor (then Ottoman Empire, now Turkey). They all came to northern Greece with the mass wave of immigration that took place during 1923 (the so-called population exchange).

The other quarter of my great-grandparents were resident in northern Greece from the 19th century (when it was still part of the Ottoman Empire).

British. Mostly northern. Parents are from Liverpool, as were 3 grandparents (the other from Bolton). Both sides have traces to Scotland, which makes me possibly an enemy of my (Campbell descended) girlfriend. My surname is Anglo-Scottish, with the Germanic Halli in there. Name means holy day (which is an arse, since my name translates as Christ Bearer Graced by God Holy Day). Dark brown hair verging on black, eyes that vary between blue and grey, and I'm the tallest in the family.

Since the parents are from Liverpool, I certainly have some Irish in me. I'd like to think I also have some native blood in me, and as my origins trace into the old Danelaw, I'd say theres a chance of some Norse blood.

Oh, possibly entitled to wear tartan. My surname is also a clan which has it's own tartan

My family's heritage is rather complicated. I will post more concerning this later when I can construct my thoughts better.

I'm half Polish, half Russian...Russian great-grandparents came over pre-WWI and Polish grandparents came over after WWII, wasn't really much for them to go back to after the war.
