Mediterranean people are sub Caucasian and is not exactly a race but sub category of the Caucasian race.

Persian is an ethnicity and not a race or nationality.

Spanish, Italian and Turkish are nationalities and not race or ethnicity

You see there is a big difference but coming back to your question people who are Turkish and Persian are generally sub Caucasian.

They are not White. People who think that are the same dumb people who think Hispanic people are White :/.

Some Hispanic people are white. Go to Argentina and yuraguy and see.

I've seen Argentina women they aren't White but if you believe that that's cool. But I'm not going to agree with you on that I'm sorry.

They are white, just like Italian and Spanish people.

Seeing as they live near the Caucasus mountains it would be pretty dumb not to call them Caucasian. However the origins of the term white, which was a way to exclude various groups from the upper crust of society, would not allow them to be "white". Which is in itself a bullshit term just like "black".

[Milandoingthings]

Caucasian.. there's no such race as mediterranean ;-) but if you mean tan? Yeah.. mediterranean seems to be the right one.

The original Turks come from Central Asia.

They aren't white. They're Arabs.

[Raha17]

They're Aryans so they're as white as the german

Where is the need to make a comment when you know nothing. Calling a persian arab is gonna get you punched in the face.
