Caucasian is a reference to the Caucasus. This region is located between eastern Europe and Asia or Eurasia. The region is also known as the "powder keg of Europe" because it was an area that had conflicts that sparked both world wars. The Caucasus is also a region that has one of the highest frequencies of blond hair among it's people.
