Hi,
Yes and i would like to add, as it was me who sended the bad message at
first about all americans being of europe origin. This was a stupid thing,
it was not intended to be of any type of racism or anything, just a blubr
from my part.
I should have said that every american has origins from the old world, not
europe. Sorry about this.
What about russia, dont russia count in as european? I really dont know.
Everytime i visits the gustavians in Sweden, i can always tell they are
swedish, and that even that we are so close neighbors, Denmark and Sweden it
is very typically the way they look like. Something about their eyes, and
their shape of face. Off cause many swedes are very pale and has blue eyes
and golden hair, but it is not only that.
Here in Denmark we have many danes with very dark hair and also dark skin.
They have their origin from Spain, as Denmark had a lot of spanish troops
living in Jutland, during the wars in 1864.
Funny how our past still have so much influence for us all.
Bjarne

I'm mainly of Irish and French-Canadian descent, with some Swedish, Welsh,
and English thrown in. Apparently, I'm very Irish looking with extremely
fair skin and green eyes. My costume obsession: early 16th-century
Florence.
