Wow she actually looks Slavic, Polish, Slovak, Czech or Ukrainian

I doubt she'd be genetically very different from a Venetian though.

Don't know. But she looks german, not venetian to me.

She looks German to me. I am guessing she is from the South Tyrol.

I don't think northern Italians look different from Germans.

No, they look different. And Gerda looks more Austrian than German.

[Also]

I don't think northern Italians look different from Germans.

I have venetian ancestors. They don't look like that, in my family at least.
