Black People in Europe

[Lonehunter]

OK I know the title might sounds like trouble, but I have a serious question

In America people often refer to Black people as African American's. I just say Black, I'm not lazy I just do. So in Europe are they refered to as African British? African German? Or just simple Black?

Sorry if this sounds incredibly stupid but I think it's time I knew.

or maybe they're not the stuck up dicks that americans are and they're just called british or german. or they're called by thier first name.

Yes because everyone of a dark skin tone is from Africa.

Well I mean when refering to someone's race. If I see a black guy on the street I don't say "Hey Black DUDE!"

It used to be on applications but not anymore, when choosing a race it said African American, Caucasian, Latino etc. I'm just curious what it's like over seas.

I think it depends what country in Africa they are from, since I think most of them are semi-recent immigrants. For example, you would say, "oh you know, that Algerian/Moroccan/etc..." guy. It's more of a culture thing.

Because Caucasia is actually a real region, and I bet you're not from there. Lots of people don't know about Caucasia, and they they still check that little box on forms and such.

In Europe (especially in Russia and the surrounding area), Caucasian usually refers exclusively to people who are from the Caucasus region or speak the Caucasian languages.
