Genealogy question, please help.?

You were born in India, and therefore you have Indian nationality. I was born in England, and therefore I have British nationality. BUT my mother (like yours) is of mixed cultures, so although my passport may say I'm British, I say otherwise. Your father is 100% Indian, and therefore it is your Indian genes that take priority. BUT you can claim to be all of the above, no matter how much or how little of that nationality you carry. They all make up you as a whole, and therefore all a part of you.You say you think you look more Hispanic than Indian, but that you have NO Eruopean looks in you. BUT it's your mother's European side that makes you look more Hispanic than Indian. The Hispanic/Mediterranean look about you is a result of the two very different cultural looks blending to make a third. So you DO have a European look about you; you just saw it as Hispanic. Remember that the Spanish and Italians living near the Med will have a similar look to you, and they too are European. Perhaps it's a Mediterranean look you have, and not a Hispanic look.
