Turks. They're Turkmenian people, not arabs and not white. Kinda like Afghanistan.

White looking Mexicans they're either labeled as Caucasian or Hispanic.

Argentinians are kinda like Latinos, excpet mixed with Aboriginals Aztecs etc.

Egyptians are Arabs, no doubt.

I had to ask my dad for this across the room, and he knows alot of about that stuff...

Race is a huge point of contention--there (were.are) 3 races--caucasoid, mongoloid, negroid, but science has moved away from race altogether.

Most everything now is based on ethnicity--which is simply put, a people group that identifies with one another.

Turks are just Turks, etc. "Arab" is not so much a racial distinction, but simply identifies "those who speak Arabic".

I myself am Cajun French and English, but look hispanic. Ive even been called "Spic" on the odd occasion.

Yeah it is hard, im samoan myself, so even samoans at times get it twisted, but Tongans dont have the slanted eyes as much, cos quite a few samoans have chinese ancestors and german ancestors, there was quite a lot of german/tongan marriages over a hundread years ago, i knew 1 dude that was dark as hell but his grandad was german, but tongans on average are darker.

Turks can vary in appearance, some look like white Europeans some are mixed with white/mongol but most are a mix of white/mongol/persian.
Not all Egyptians are arab, about 10 million are Coptic who are the original inhabitants of Egypt prior to the Arab invasion.
Argentinians are mainly white from Spanish, Italian and German heritages, Argentina has to be the most white place in all of south america after southern Brazil. Meztizos are very hard to find in Argentina they basically have no natives left.

Ethnicity/race: white (mostly Spanish and Italian) 97%; mestizo, Amerindian, other 3%
