I'm 1/4 British Indian, 1/4 Arab (probably...) and 2/4 Pakistani
Well just call me Pakistani since 3/4 of my family is in Pakistan and the rest are in India...

I've got ancestors all over the world (Jewish diaspora). Poland, Galicia (the part that is currently Ukraine but was Polish and Austrian), Egypt, Turkey, Belgium, Brazil, South Africa.
I consider myself a full-blooded Israeli, though

Half German, one eighth Russian, one eighth Swiss, one eighth English, one eighth Irish. Northern and Western Europe pretty much. One interesting thing about my family tree, a part of my father's side came to America before the revolution. My mother's side earliest known ancestor to arrive in America was right after the civil war was over in 1865. So we both are Swiss then?

I'm only 1/8 swiss through my mother's side (she's 1/4 swiss herself), more predominantly German than Swiss tho. I do have some German from my father's family as well. Irish, 1/8 equally from both sides. Russian and English from my father's side. English and German last names dominate the tree though, there's Russian women marrying into the family and left their maiden names behind. No Russian bride jokes please...

Just safer to be pre-emptive and make a request to lay aside crude jokes about one's ancestry.

Aryans are all over the world a lot are in Iran (which literally means Land of the Aryans), India, Pakistan, etc You're correct, but we are talking about the notion that we are Caucasians of non Jewish descendent. Edit: Or shall I say, Indo-European Aryan! I think that's the official term.
