I was more curious about the whole thing of multiple white cultural groups that sometime conflict, but I have heard a similar thing about Italy, in relation to someone criticising medievalPOC's very American-style view on racial issues.

I think she has a pretty good point. The Roman Empire included most of North Africa, and the Renaissance was fueled by aggressive trade agreements (including slavery) with Africa and Asia. There were people of African (frequently called Moorish) ancestry in Europe. They are documented through dozens of sources and works of art.

Now of course, any serious discussion of that would acknowledge that the life of Saint Benedict the Moor in 16th century Sicily wasn't the same as Ida B. Wells in 20th century America. Or that the Romani Diaspora which entered Europe in the 12th century isn't necessarily connected to Ramanujan in the 20th. But recognizing the existence of either in Europe isn't "ahistorical" as frequently claimed.

The Sami might be a good example for you. Also Romany gypsies and Irish travellers.
