I know that in Latvian passports there is a column 'ethnicity'. It looks like such a thing exist in Estonia too. (Soviet legacy? Trollolol.) :tongue
Many could have been Russian who decided that their childs birth certificate should say "Estonian". I know people from Russian families, who according to their passport are Estonians.There is no such column in Belarusian passports, but in certificates of birth the ethnicity of the mother and the father of a child is specified.
I read somewhere on internetz that on demand one can get a stamp in their passport specifying the ethnicity of the bearer.
What about your country?
