The term '''"race"''' in the [[Fallout world|''Fallout'' world]] refers mostly to different kinds of human mutants, such as [[ghoul]]s and [[super mutant]]s, as well as [[human]]s themselves.

Aside from the obvious mutant-ghoul-human and cultural bigotry (tribals vs. townsfolk, [[Vault City]] vs. everyone else), racism and sexism are alive and well. A person's skin color, status, and career are always good excuses for fear and hate to build upon, although communities like [[New California Republic|NCR]] and [[Modoc]] would have less of a problem with this. The [[Great War]] may have brought some communities together, but it has isolated others as well. Many races from previous games have made an appearance in ''[[Fallout 3]]'', while it also introduces new ones like the backwater [[swampfolk]], dead [[failed FEV subject]]s, [[trog]]s and [[abomination]]s.
