    Default Do Tunisians strike you as closer to Moroccans, or to Egyptians?

    Moroccans and Egyptians are obviously distinct from one another.. Moroccans are the least Arab influenced in all of North Africa and Egyptians the most. Moroccans have more West African influence, Egyptians have more East African. Algerians to me seem closer to Moroccans and Libyans closer to Egyptians.

    So where do Tunisians fall, to you?

    Some are so brown they could fit in India while others are so pale they'd fit into Northern Europe.

    First gallery looks really cherry picked. The average Moroccan looks more like guys Svartalfar has posted. And Tunisians look like Moroccans - in fact it is hard to tell the difference between the two. Egyptians look simultaneously more Arab and SSA than the two other groups.

    To me they look more like Egyptians though many are french-speaking; they belong more to the west-maghreb sphere culturally.

    Egyptians look SSA? :S

    Maybe the EXTREME SOUTHERN ones that border the rest of Africa but I highly doubt it. They're Caucasoid.

    Not quite. They don't look Black but show visible signs of some SSA admixture. Genetic studies also show that they have Black admixture above 10%.
