    Persians are very diverse here because I see here at least some of blondism in them apart from them fitting in the Middle East, even a good amount of them could fit in certain parts of Europe mainly Southeast or perhaps even South Europe and not because of hair or eye color just but in their facial features.

    In my own experience, the incidence of light pigmentation among Persians proper is rare. [It is likely, however, that those that are called Persians proper today are partially mingled with Arabs.] Lighter skin is not uncommon among the Kurds and Azerbaijanis of northwestern Iran and the Kurds of northeastern Iran. But even among these groups, light eyes and light hair is unusual.

    This is perhaps the most unrepresentative sample of Persians I've ever seen, and that's assuming most of these photos are of actual Persians. We have a lot of Persians here in Sweden and they all look like typical middle easterners, no lighter than the average Iraqi.

    'The fiercest fighting zone of nationality is Macedonia, and here the races so shade into one another that it was possible for the Bulgarian professors to find only seven hundred Serbians, where the Serbian statisticians found over two million and the Greek enumerators no Serbians at all.'
