First of all you would be an American. Compared to many other countries, people in the US have an above-average interest in their ethnic background. But only a few groups are commonly and specifically mentioned as 'ethnic' groups, such as African Americans, native Americans and Hispanic Americans. Many people in the US have a whole mixture of ethnic backgrounds and either don't bother with ethnicity or they will tell all the world that the are of Belgian-Scottish-Chinese-Turkish-Ukrainian descent.

Ethnicity often refers to the ethnicity of your ancestors and how strongly you align yourself with the traditions of that ethnicity. As examples: Italian-Americans, Greek-Americans, Polish-Americans, Mexican-Americans, etc.

Are you shaped by your ethnic background?

We all are to some degree. More so I think in how the group we are raised in views the ethnic group we come from. How a group is portrayed in the media is also going to effect how we see ourselves. Being from any given ethnic group does not in and of itself make us do or become something.
