India help: what is the race for people in india? - Help.com

I believe they are just referred to as Eastern Indians

They’re considered to be ‘Indian’.

Um… since when has “Indian” been removed? I hate when people refer to native Americans like that. >_

Well, we are all part of the human race. So they are humans.
Some Indians are Caucasian, I’m not sure of the other Indians.
And, well they are referred to as Indians, if that is what you mean.

The indians are a mix between Aereans who migrated there I forget how many thousand years ago, and those who were there before. The caste system originally marked how much arean a person was, but the two mixed over a long time. However, this is why some of the higher caste people have a tendency to be lighter in pigmentation than other indians.

even gypsies are indians

Yes, to slimline, and No to Betta. The caste system is pretty much eliminated and has NOTHING to do with skin color. :P

The Arians who emigrated there were lighter in colour, they established themselves as the top caste. Yes the system is no more today. No, it never had to do with colour, but they did generally tend to be lighter.

I dont think they classify themselves in a race. I work with a few of them and some have skin dark black to light brown.
