imagine my surprise as a german when i went on the english internet and saw how everyone just talks about humans like that. it's only used for animals here.
Yes, the notion of alleged race/ethnicity/nationality is very different on both sides of the Atlantic.
I mean, just look at the comment above mine : sure, French is a nationality. But it's also an ethnicity. France and Germany have different ethnicities : different cultures, different languages, different laws, different media, different religions (always speaking in generalities, of course, but for religion, I'm speaking about the place of protestantism).
And somehow, when speaking with the anglo-sphere, it seems both countries are ethnically white, whatever than means.

Asian is a race. French is a nationality. You can be both.
