    Lebanese and Cypriots look the same to me, and then as I have mentioned, people like Sicilians and Cretans look on their way to those groups when compared to other Southern Europeans.

    People on here exaggerate what I say and make it look so outlandish but if you actually read my posts, you see they're common sense.

    Georgians and Bulgarians can look alike too though.

    They don't - Lebanese people have noticeably higher amounts of Arabian and even some SSA admixture than Cypriots.

    I don't think these threads are stupid, but some are more interesting than others. I definitely go for Lebanese and Cypriots. Georgians and Lebanese are both "West Asian" populations, and Bulgarians are much more European than Cypriots.

    Cypriots look pretty Levantine though. They don't overlap much with Greeks or with any European group minus the Mediterranean islanders (who all look alike regardless of the country they belong).

    Lebanese and Cypriots overall; I do think there is some overlap between Bulgarians and Georgians though (25% maybe)

    Cypriots and Lebanese/Syrians have overlap, but they don't look the same to me. The former looks like a more Middle Eastern shifted version of Greeks or Italians. The latter looks like lighter Arabians with some Armenoid or Med influence.

    This does not acknowledge the Balkan influence in Greece lacking in Cyprus. Cypriots have no Balkan DNA.

    Replace the Balkan with Middle Eastern.
