You have a lot of research to do before you are ready to tackle this. You are mixing nationalities and ethnicities, and caucasian is a meaningless term, unless you are an anthropologist digging up bodies.
Decide if you want to do a chart of nationalities, or if you want to do ethnicities. Then actually find the nationalities or ethnicities of the people who you want to put on the chart.

Sounds like your moms side of the family wasn't to particular on who they slept with as opposed to your dad's side of the family. They kept the bloodline pure, until your dad met your mom, they your moms side of the families values kicked in, made it with a vietnamese, and produced you. So that makes you half vietnamese half mutt. There is no percentage available for your moms bloodline since there is no definitive bloodline to trace. Sorry to fu*k up your project but your moms side just screwed anything that moved so really there is no telling what they really are. Doubt if you could even trace it back to the original 2 that started her clan.
