In addition, France has a lot of Germanic types that are far less prevalent in Spain.
    I think northern Italians look more continental and like the French, while French rarely look Med in the same way that Italians can, so it is northern Italians looking stereotypically French rather than the reverse.

    Here is a thread I made yesterday about some French politicians. They may not look East Med, but they fit better in Italy (North and South alike) than in the UK.

    According to Feichy, who spent time in both countries, hungarians don't resemble croatians as much as their genetics would suggest.

    Egyptians, Arabians(esp. Saudis, Bedouins and Yemenite Jews), Palestinians, Jordanians and Syrians are genetically very similar to one another even though they look differently.

    I wonder why. One of them has an Italian surname (Marlene Schiappa) and the other is part Jewish and Maltese!

    Otherwise they do look more Spanish actually.
