well since race is mostly a western construct, I suppose you mean most Asians are racially Asian. But I'm really not so sure that you can say Asia is very homogenous, culturally, ethnically, or genetically. Indeed, the issue wrt being Chinese is that the history of China is one of a enculturation into Chinese culture of a diverse set of groups throughout the mainland... where being Chinese is about acting Chinese more than it is about genetic and geographical roots.
- robjan 8y agoI meant that individual Asian countries (especially in East Asia) are usually homogenous e.g. most people in Japan are Japanese, Korea Korean, China Chinese etc. So much so that often race and nationality are conflated.
