Caucasians are from Central Asia, unrelated to European ethnicities. In Russia, they are considered non white.

There aren't many real Caucasians in America.

I agree. To me there are four types of Europeans: Nordics, Mediterraneans, Bo-Hunks, and Slavs. Caucasian describes nothing to me.

Hate to break it to you but Caucasian, referring to race, has nothing to do with Azeris and Armenians. It is derived from Caucasoid, which Azeris and Armenians are certainly a part of, just as Negro is related to Negroid and Mongol to Mongoloid(though no one would call an Asian a Mongol these days.)

Actually, "Caucasians" are from the Caucasas, which includes Georgia, Armenia, Azarbaijan and parts of southern Russia (i.e., Chechniya). You are right, Russians consider them non-white. (they refer to them as "black asses")

I would love to see Americans of Georgian, Armenian and Azerbaijani decent form a "Caucasian Club." What would the other minorities say?
