		An ethnic group or ethnicity is a population of humans whose members identify with each other, usually on the basis of a presumed common genealogy or ancestry (Smith, 1986).
		Ethnic groups are also usually united by certain common cultural, behavioural, linguistic and ritualistic or religious traits.
		Members of an ethnic group generally claim a strong cultural continuity over time, although some historians and anthropologists have documented that many of the cultural practices on which various ethnic groups are based are of recent invention (Friedlander 1975, Hobsbawm and Ranger 1983, Sider 1993).

	CWIS - The Fourth World Journal - Strategies in "Ethnic" Conflict by Gevork Ter-Gabrielian (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Since the level of mobilization of ethnic groups in a violent conflict is high, their leadership is able to organize referenda and elections and to achieve the declaration of independence and creation of primary state institutions in a legitimate way (of course, this way is not legitimate from the perspective of states).
		Ethnic groups would have the opportunity to express their grievances against states within the borders of which they are included and to seek common systematic solutions to their problems.
		Ethnic groups' demands to enhance their status are not merely a result of irrational proliferation of the ideology of nationalism; rather they are a reaction to the inability and inflexibility of the nation-states' framework in guaranteeing a fair distribution of power and rights among all the significant group actors within the states.

	Chinese Ethnic Minorities
		The largest group, the Han, make up over 92% of China's vast population, and it is the elements of Han civilization that world considers "Chinese culture." Yet, the 55 ethnic minorities, nestled away on China's vast frontiers, maintain their own rich traditions and customs, and all are part of Chinese culture.
		Even though the modern concept of 56 ethnic groups is often considered an arbitrary and conservative summary of the hundreds of diverse peoples in China, it pales in comparison to the simplicity by which the ancient Han people distinguished their nomadic neighbors.
		Although over 400 minority groups answered a call to register, studies found that there was a lot of overlapping, and a significant number of groups that claimed to be separate were actually the same with different names.

	Ethnic Group Definition
		I think a group would have to be around for generations with there new traditions as these would be new traditions as they do not directly come from living romans but they adopted the beliefs of ancient romans beliving they are emulating them.
		This group however if it did last a few generations would be an ethnic group but only of the new Roman-Latin one and not of the old ancient one.
		So it kind of interesting to me, cultural group and ethnic group seems to be the same exact thing especially when you are of the same race, and even if you are not.

		A comparatively small group, the Baloch, like the Pakhtuns, are a tribal population whose original territory extends beyond the national borders.
		A Pakhtu expression, reflecting on ethnic relations as well as on geography, describes Balochistan as "the dump where Allah shot the rubbish of creation." Subsistence is hard in this environment and is achieved by pastoral nomadism, dryland and irrigated agriculture, and fishing.
		Suprafamily groups formed through patrilineal descent are significant mostly for the elite hakim, whose concern for rivalry and politics is not shared by other groups.
