If my great grandma is italian?

Question

Ok soo my daddy's grandpa is 100% Italian and he married 100% Peruvian women

and my mom's grandma is also 100% Italian and she also married an Peruvian man

So i would be 25% Italian and 75% Peruvian...

right ?

Answer 1

Wow... what an equation.  As for ethnicity, you are 50/50.  But as for citizenship, I would guess you would be 100% Peruvian, right?

On another note, when you add the Peruvian side to the mix, you need to consider if your PERUVIAN great grandparents were primarily indigenous in ethnicity, or primarily European (Spanish) in ethnicity.  If they are Spanish, you might also want to consider if they have latin or arabic roots (Spaniards from the south of Spain have strong Moorish ancestry).  

Once you get to a certain point in ethnicity, it's really hard to define your background, even when you can identify it.

Answer 2

What math are you doing?

Your genes are half and half from each.

25% Italian from Dad, 25% Peruvian from Dad.

25% Italian from Mom, 25% Peruvian from Mom.

So 50% Italian and 50% Peruvain.

It doesn't matter where you were born, that doesn't make you more Peruvian.  If you take a 100% French woman who's having a baby with a 100% French man and she gives birth in Canada that doesn't make the baby 75% French and 25% Canadian.

Answer 3

Why would you think you're more Peruvian?

You're 50% Italian... 50% Peruvian.

Answer 4

you're doing the math all wrong. peruvian + italian = hawaiian.  

Answer 5

ya !!! u r calculations is exellent but u can learn both the languages thats --

100% Italian  &  100% Peruvian...

Answer 6

Well if they are all 100%'s then your mom and dad would both be 50% Peruvian and Italian and so would you.

Answer 7

100% Peruvian
