Introversion seems to be a common (even celebrated) european personality/psychological trait, I could be wrong, but especially in the Germanic countries this seems to be common. Many of the Germanic peoples tend to be very orderly even slightly neurotic. Could these traits be a result hundreds of years of high culture, education and wealth?

High culture?
I thought we were just a bunch of primitive hacks who got lucky(speaking about my own people here)


Norway was pretty much a poor and backwater place hundred years ago.

well, Scandinavia not son long ago was not Wealthy, I would say it has to do with climate

If you're comparing Germans and Italians, the differences are probably cultural. But if you're comparing whites to blacks and East Asians, the differences are genetic.

Human behavior/psychology differs between each race. Idiots that say "we are all alike and all humans, we have no differences" are fucking retards. We differ in every damn way from our intelligence, to psychological ways, to physical ways. This is because we all have evolved in different ways and have had different cultures.

Both. 'The bow made the man', as they say.

The differences between Europeans is as great than that between European and other races. Irish/Scots and Swedes are hardly similar in this sense even though both are Northern Europeans. Also, Scandinavia hasn't enjoyed any great length of "high culture, wealth and education", so forget "hundreds of years".

I wouldn't imagine any european country to be composed of one race. Differences exist within any population. Culture did in the past and does today diffuse.

Genetics is a factor, but I have not found it as significant.
