There are still people out there who believe in the existence of pure-blooded individuals or even entire nations. This is a myth, a delusion if you will, since all of us are a mixture of different bloodlines. We may not even know it. I tried and tried but I cannot find the article I read a year back ago that reported on, I think they were British, scientists who have proven that all humans are related much more closely than we would be lead to think by our traditional, still nationalistically founded, education. To put their discovery in simple terms I'll use their example: if you were to be sent back in time some 5000 years into the past, into any part of the Old World (Europe, Asia, Africa for us Old Worlders) the first person you would meet would most likely be your ancestor. If we were to speak of lets say an ordinary modern Macedonian, and let's say we send him 3000 years back into China, the first person he/she would meet would most likely be his/her ancestor. Sounds incredible? It appears to be true. People didn't marry just into their village, and they didn't just have three or four kids.
But I digress. My original intent was to ask you what ancestry you have, i.e. what ethnicity your ancestors were? I'm not asking about a definite answer. We don't know who our ancestors were 2000 years ago and with whom they married. So just list who could theoretically be your ancestors.
Judging from my origin, I can list the following:
Slovak (what I'm considered now)
Hungarian (I'm aware to be 1/8th)
Vlach
Czech
Polish
Moravian
Celtic
Germanic
Scytho-Sarmatian
Dacian
Pannonian
Roman
