Examples in the Old World where a more southern group is fairer than a more northern group

Thanks, but I specifically said Old World. You cannot apply this to the New World, since those countries are made up of much more recent immigration and settlement patterns.

True.

Romanians on average are taller than Moldovans, despite having a more darker complexion.

Romanians have higher Dinaric racial input hence influences average height as well.

Sami peoples from the far north are darker than their more southern neighbours.

Yes! That’s the best example, but the vast majority are indeed ignorant of this fact.

Could be.

South east English than Welsh? lol that probably is true, also i would say Dutch are fairer than the Baltic peoples and possibly Poles, some Balkan peoples are likely lighter than northern Italians and the northern Spanish, Also probably many middle eastern groups might be higher in lightness in places south than north i.e some Lebanese might surpass some Turks in lightness, also Lurs in Iran, Kalash in Pakistan.

From my sources. The Southeastern English aren't too different from the Welsh as a whole, but they do show a higher ratio of fair or blond hair.
Fair or blond hair - Wales (>20%) vs Southeastern England (>30%)
Reddish or red hair - Wales (> 10%) vs Southeastern England (>7%)
Blue eyes - Wales (45%) vs Southeastern England (44%)

I've already posted some South Asian cases on the other similar thread so I'll post one that I didn't talk about and it's about East Asia. Basically, I'm 95% sure that Okinawans/Ryukyu Islanders are lighter skinned than most Han Chinese from central China.

I also think Han Chinese are a bit lighter than Mongols.

You might have a point about my cousins or brethren the Dutch. They are well among Europe’s lightest - haired. I already know that they are the lightest - haired in Western Europe.
