Thats still alot though... In australia the aboriginal population makes up less than 2% of the whole country...

 

[..::ERIC::..]

Its more like 12% are Maori. But, in saying that they are all part European. Many of that 12% will be more European than Maori and some of the "European" population will have Maori blood in them. It is very hard to draw the line as to what people are.

Yeah, skin colour isn't what determines a maori, Edinburgh, I mean, I'm mMaori, and I'm the palest guy I know.

Also, Maoris (even though noone is a full maori) aren't as dark as many Island nations, or aboriginals or many other countries natives.
