You got white (Caucasian races) and black (Negroid races).<br/><br/>Asians are White. Not one country in Asia is officially labelled as negroids. So even Indians, Thai, Uzbek, Azeri, Japanese, Mongols, Russians, etc are all officially white. The only original negroid races are from Africa. <br/><br/>My ex girlfriend was Asian (Azerbaijan) and she referred to herself and her family as white. I worked with people from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, they all said they are white. And they were. Not black or yellow or Orange (which in Britain is a skin tone I found out today).<br/><br/>I agree that Indians and Vietnamese and Thai and other countries in that inhospitable part of the world are darker than the 'normal' white.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Couple of more things after some quick research:<br/><br/>Terms like "negroid" come from typology in biological anthropology, which has been discredited.  There were different systems and one had five races - Negroid, Caucasoid, Mongoloid, Australoid and Capoid...<br/><br/>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typology_(anthropology)#Typology (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typology_(anthropology)#Typology)<br/><br/>I once met someone who looked Asian but spoke English with a Russian accent.  Talking with him was pretty cool.  I asked where he was from, and it was one of the former Soviet republics.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6540976#msg6540976">Quote from: Dashenka on 05-07-2012, 15:25:13</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Have you ever seen people from Kazakhstan?
