Miscegenation is marriage or admixture between people who are members of different races or ethnicities. Long-term genetic and cultural admixture has been a widespread feature of human populations across much of the world, while only a few geographically or culturally isolated regions show limited historical intermixing. Historically, it has been sometimes subject to controversy or legal prohibition, typically in societies with strict racial/ethnic separation, hierarchical social structures or cultural conservationism. Adjectives describing miscegenation include "interethnic", "mixed-race", "multiethnic", "multiracial", and "interracial".
