Yes, it is possible for Dominicans to be part Italian. The term may refer to either the people of the Dominican Republic or practitioners of the Dominican Order. The former trace their ancestry back to the settlement of their island through the navigational skills of Genoa-born Italian explorer Christopher Columbus (October 31, 1450? - May 20, 1506) while the latter will not exclude Italian Catholics from their ranks even though their formation goes back to a Spanish Catholic and their current head is French.
