    My ethnic groups? Well, they are all from west africa, so a lot you might nit be familiar with them, i'll do just a little explaining, not too much.

    Fulani: i'm roughly 75 percent fulani, one the largest ethinc groups in africa. All my great grandparents are a hundred percent fulani, but we don't speak the language anymore, because they got integrated with the temne people of sierra leone. All that's left is my last name, which is distinctively fulanite.

    Temne: i'm about 15% Temne, but not really, this is just the language my family speaks, and i think my mom's grandma was half temne.

    Arab: about 5%. Some of my ancestors a loooong time ago came to africa from yemen, and married into the people. I guess there responsible for the green eyes XD

    So, those are my 3 ethnic groups( really just two.) this was a really interesting thread idea, still.

    Mexican, which is made up of Indian/Spanish, then the Spanish origins from Iberia peninsula, whatever groups were there during the Roman period in Spain through the middle ages.

    Maybe you have some origins to the Romans.

    I'm Hispanic and I assume my great-grand 100x grandfather was some Roman soldier or something.

    I'm 1/2 Scottish, 1/4 German, and I/4 English with a little more Scottish tossed in. My name translates from Gaelic to son of a sea raider so there is some Viking blood in the mix as well.

    Well, my ancestors are mostly Quebecers, but if you go beyond that, they originated from France (obviously). Normandie, to be exact. (Might even have so viking blood *-* )

    Though, I have other ancestors. My mother's ancestors are Irish and came to Quebec in the late 1800s. Of course, my grandparents don't speak a word of English, so it's not too close.
