There is no way to determine that exactly. Humans evolved gradually, branching off from some other group of primate. Since the process was gradual, there is no exact individual who you could say was the first man.

However, it has been found that humans first emerged in Africa.

Which was the first being on earth?

The first living being on Earth was the human race. In further detail, it was Prophet Addam(aa-dhum)who was the first life form sent to Earth by Allah. Live evolved from lower orders of organisation, gradually getting more and more complex. Obviously there is no record of in existence of who 'who' was the first living thing. Some religions claim that man was created as he is today. Who that person was would depend on which religion you wish to believe. If any. Plants are the first in creation as far as scientific knowledge goes.


Was the first man on earth Asian African American or Chinese?

However you believe that man appeared on earth the first man could not be said to be Asian, African, American, Chinese or any other nationality. These are labels based on modern political divisions and although the earth's landmasses looked pretty similar to how they do today there were no countries as we have. The first people certainly would not have considered themselves as belonging to any of these continents or defined themselves as belonging to any of these races. If you believe in the Biblical version of the creation of man then he had no designated race, but was still in a celestial state. If you believe in the evolution of man then palaeoanthropologists agree that the first people on earth lived in Africa, millions of years ago. They eventually spread through the Middle East to Europe, Asia and Australia, then eventually to the Americas and the Pacific Islands.
