ethnically

Regarding ancestral background

Ethnically relates to ethnic background—shared culture, ancestry, language, or national origin that distinguishes groups of people.

It describes how something connects to or varies by ethnicity: an ethnically diverse neighborhood, ethnically motivated violence.

The word often appears in discussions of demographics, identity, and discrimination.
