What nationality are you most of? I checked Italian because I am 40% Italian, but I'm also 1/8 Irish, 1/8 German, a little Scottish, and even 1% Native American Indian (believe me, you would never be able to tell by looking at me).

My family immigrated to the States in the late 1600s. I have some french and a little bit of Irish, but I'm mainly German in family background. However, so many generations have passed that I don't know how true that might be.
 
Basically, I'm an American because my family has been here too long to really trace roots to different countries.

Because there was no North America until other countries began migrating here?   Roll Eyes  Wink

Yeah, I know, but I still think it should be added.  Roll Eyes I'm 1/8 Swedish and I think 1/8 Japanese. I don't know. It's really far back. I'm probably 1/1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Both sides of the family came over from Norway in 1850 something.  If there was any mixing before that, I don't know about it.

Sorry Pau! I'll correct it right away! Also, I'll add Canadian and Swedish as two more options, judging from the fact that there are a great deal of Canadian members.

So Pau, do you speak Mandarin?  Cheesy
 
I think I should be nearly 100% Chinese. I have no idea whether my ancestors had any mixing. I believe that most Chinese are pretty much pure, maybe because they had been a closed country for centuries.

Bit of a mixed breed here...
 
25% Norwegian
50% German
25% Irish
 
I do have a lot of adopted people on both sides of the family so I could really be a mix of anything.
 
My wife is adopted too so we don't know anything of her mix.

I was adopted, and all I know is that my mother was Cuban. My father could have been anyone!
