So would this make me partially asian?

I'm a mixture of nationalities, but mostly Russian. Like 70% russian. Since Russia is in Europe and Asia, would I be partially Asian? I was wondering about this today.

    70% Russian? Have you actually lived in Russia? You're nationality depends on where you're born too, you know. Not just tracing back to your ancient ancestors...

    If you have lived in Russia then you'll know which part is considered in Asia. :)

    Most of Russia's population lives in Europe, even though their country is Eurasian. Even so, Russians are just considered Russians.

    Depends.

    Are you from European Russia or Asian Russia?

    I'm gonna take a wild guess and say European Russia and say no you are not Asian.

    I could be wrong, though. Who knows?

    Technically yes, but russia is considered a European country. Again technically, being in asia, you are "Asian".

    If you refer to "Asian" as being, perhaps, Chinese or Korean, or looking like someone from what is usually called an asian country, you will have to search farther into your ancestry. =) hope that helps

    Possibly. You could have Tatar, Turkish or Mongol ancestry on your Russian side. Do a DNA marker test then you can know for sure.
