I... am looking at them now! :D I'll comment later. I'm running on like four hours of sleep (which isn't a lot, for me). ;) Gimme a minute to wake up. I have to have my tea first.
Oh, and out of curiosity (don't feel like you have to answer this question if you don't want to) - are you descended from one of these white people, or are you one of the oppressed natives?
Just for reference - I'm kind of a mutt, like many Canadians and Americans are. My mum is British (my parents actually met in Paris on separate vacations), but her family was from a line of oppressed British Catholics, you know? Anyway, so I have British citizenship through her, which is sweet (yay European Union!). My dad is from a Polish family - his grandparents came over in the early 1900s, which is why we have the long Polish last name - Markewicz. (I'm told it means "Son of Mark") His mum, though, was a Dutch war bride - his dad went over and fought in the Second World War, and they met when he was helping to liberate Holland. :)
I also may or may not have had a Spanish great-great-something in there, because we kind of look Spanish in our looks. And we tan a lot. ;)

So yeah. Mostly European.
