My family is northen European. My mom's mother's mother was Polish (moved to Chigago, never spoke a word of English), married to a German. Her father's family was all German.

My Dad's family was German and Alsaician (that's Alsaic/Lorrein, where Joan d'Arc was from). So I'm more than half German.

Nice. WP have replicated the results for the US in Aspie-quiz 6 & 7. Afro-Americans have consistently lower prevalence than other races. Somebody will try to explain this with the discrimination of blacks in the US, but I won't buy it ;-)

Scottish, English and German ancestors, with some Huguenots who emigrated from France to Britain centuries ago. I am an Australian Citizen. I know a little about American race relations. There was some trouble betwen Anglo-Saxons and Lebanese in Sydney, New South Wales, but I live in Victoria. Specifically a rural place called St Andrews (not the one in Scotland) north/possibly north-east of Melbourne proper. Melbourne seems comparatively harmonious racially, though there has been crime related violence. Some of this may have racial underpinnings. The situation of the indigenous people of this land (Australia) is very inequitable.
