My race is human. As for my descent...there is really no "pure" ethnicity, the people of the world have been interracting with each other a great deal in the past several thousand years...so most of the human race is of mixed ethnic ancestry, unless they are part of a remote tribe, such as ones found in the Amazon rain forest, or New Guinea, to name a few places. The people in such remote tribes are really the only humans who haven't had much interraction with people outside their tribes. The rest of the human population, over 99%, are of mixed descent/ethnicities. We may have a certain nationality, but we have ancestors who come from many countries, etc. For example, I have Arabic, French, Russian, and Spanish descents, and most likely, more than than just those ethnicities too...those are just the only ones I know of. So your question is a very vague one, because most humans have mixed descent, there is really no such thing as "pure" ethnicity, like I explained before. Yup, Anita_reel is right. We're all "Heinz 57"! (and it's a great thing!)

I am Bangladeshi, Bengali by race (each of the major divisions of humankind, each having distinct physical characteristics).
Common descent is 'Dravidians' and origin of our ‘Bangla’ language is ‘Sanskrit’, I suppose.
Thanks for clarifying the mis-category matter. Did you mean descent: lineage, family origin? By the way, decent adj. 1 a conforming with standards of decency. b avoiding obscenity. 2 respectable. 3 acceptable, good enough. 4 kind, obliging. decently adv. [Latin decet is fitting]
