Since you live in Ireland, everyone who meets you can safely assume you are Irish, born and bred. But to use America as an example… the melting pot concept has taken great effect. Most white folks have 30 different nationalities in them, and even tribal or African roots way back in the past. Distinctly ethnic names were ‘Americanized’ once families passed through Ellis Island. The term ‘white’ seems to be the only thing that can establish the mixed up gene pool of fair skinned, light eyed and haired people. Also, the term ‘white’ was created in the heyday of white supremacy/colonialism to seperate European peoples from everyone else. Racism is only a 500 year old concept; before that it was nationalism. Back in the Roman Empire, a man from north central Africa with full Roman citizenship would be considered far superior over a red-haired tribesman from Briton or an Italian slave.
