Euronesian refers to any person of mixed European and Polynesian,[2] Melanesian or Micronesian descent. It is most commonly used in Samoa. Most Euronesians are descended from British or French people and with some from Spaniards and Polynesians in Isla de Pascua and from Spaniards and Micronesians in Guam, Northern Marianas, Marshall Islands, Caroline Islands, and Palau.
