Your ethnicity refers to your background heritage, culture, religion, ancestry, or sometimes the country where you were born. It is a group of people who share distinct social attributes such as culture, heritage, language, history, religion, and other characteristics. Ethnicities are usually identified with a specific geographic region where their group originated. If you are interested in finding out your ethnic background, you can consider taking a DNA test, such as the one offered by MyHeritage, which provides an Ethnicity Estimate based on your DNA results. Additionally, the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) provides specific categories for collecting data on race and ethnicity, including Hispanic or Latino and Not Hispanic or Latino, as well as racial categories such as American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, Black or African American, Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, and White.
