Answer 1

It means that you are a of Indo-Germanic decent. The' race was a warrior race from the steps and over ran middle Europe . Hitler's Aryan race was Indo-Germanic with Nordic features, Good luck with that. Your Russian father would have excluded you for Hitlers Aryan race. Slavs and Jews were supposedly the full Russian race. But all the other nationalities would suggest you are of Aryan decent.

Answer 2

Because of historical racist use of Aryan, and especially use of Aryan race in connection with the propaganda of Nazism, the word is sometimes avoided in the West as being tainted, in the same manner as the swastika symbol. In the English language, the word "Aryan" is no longer in technical use to refer to an ethnic group or race, and the popular use of the term to mean "white person" fell out of favour during the 1930s when the obvious obsession of the Nazis with the word became a matter of ridicule in Britain and North America. In the USA, the established and less contentious term "Caucasian" became dominant in official usage. Currently, India and Iran are the only countries to use the word Aryan in a demographic denomination. This usage, however, carries no racist connotations. Aryan is also a common male name in India Afghanistan and Iran. And Aryana was the name of the modern day Afghanistan, which means The Land of Aryans.

Answer 3

It all depends what you mean by Aryan! If you are asking if you qualify to join a Nazi-style skinhead racist group, probably. Although the Russian, makes you part slavic, and any Italian defininately would cause you to fail Hitler's test.

But remember, Hitler was full of S&@t, and was obsessed with mysticism that he altered to suit his twisted Wagnerian induced fantasies.

Even the Hachenkreuz (sanskrit Swastika) symbol that the Nazis used was stolen and bastardized from Indian Mysticism. The Aryan tribes originated from Northern India as far as I know, so in that sense you have no Aryan lineage at all. Then again, Dolf Baby was an Austrian (Not German) on Slavic descent and should have been sent to the camps if he applied his own standards on himself.

Why are you concerned with this?

Answer 4
