    Default Who looks more alike: Swedes and Germans or Greeks and Italians?

    An interesting comparison. After all, Swedes strongly overlap with North Germans but less so South Germans; similarly, Greeks strongly overlap with South Italians but less so North Italians. Therefore, who looks more alike?

    About equal. Swedes do not overlap much with South Germans, and Greek mainlanders do not overlap much with South Italians because they look too Balkan.

    It is North Germans-Swedes, and Aegean islands-South Italy that are alike.

    Thanks for that, but I am discussing all Italians here. Even mainland Greeks, despite the Balkan influences, still look closer to Southern than Northern Italians imo.

    They might look closer to central Italians actually.
