Not really. Both are among tallest Europeans and there are lot of highly depigmented, Cromagnon heavy types (Faelids, Borreby, Nordocromagnids, pure Nordics too to lesser extent)
Walloons are more alpinised, visibly shorter and more brunet with softer and pretty neutral west Euro features.

Dutch and Danes have visibly sharper features, they're more robust, have square jaws and visibly more blondism. Golden blond adults are pretty common in both, unlike among Belgians.

I thought Walloons are taller and blonder than other Francophone groups, even if not to the extent of the Dutch?

They're not far from Flemish and southern Dutch. Thing with Netherlands is that it has big genetic difference north to south, much more than between Flemings and Walloons in Belgium.
Northern Dutch are basically Scandinavian like and quintessential Germanics along with Danes.

South Dutch are more Germano-Celtic. And people call Belgium artificial state, lol. From genetic point of view it's Netherlands.

Differences between Flemish and Walloon are exaggerated. They aren't the same but they are close.
Flemish themself have lot of Celtic blood and Walloons have some Germanic, too.

But non-southern Dutch are totally different cathegory- they are pure Germanic.

I live in Belgium...I live in the capital city and my mother lives in the flemish part (+ have some family members who live in wallonia) I know what I'm talking about and in terms of look I can sometimes easily point the difference between the two.

Example these are typical flemish look that you will rarely seen or even not found in wallonia :

Danes.

The Dutch are one of the tallest (if not the tallest) of people in Europe, have good strong bones, and have a lot of hallstatt nordid types. I think the Dutch are phenotypically, culturally, and linguistically closer to Danes.

I've seen some Dutch people who look close to Walloons, but I think a larger percentage of them look closer to Danes.

Let us discuss.

Dude, the Keltic Nordid element is the predominant European Caucasoid racial element in northern Belgium (Flanders) and also the majority element in the Netherlands. Obviously many Walloons are Keltic Nordid though more are Borreby with Alpinid admixtures. In that way, the Dutch as a whole would be closer phenotypically to the Walloons than Danish folk. However, if we separated the North from the South Dutch, then it'd be a different story. The Northern Dutch would be closer to the Danish people, while the Southern Dutch closer to the Flemish and Walloons.

Belgians are the second tallest people after the Dutch. We are taller than the Danish people too. So your point's ridiculous.

I mean look at this extremely handsome right-wing liberal Dutch politician Geert Wilders from Limburg in the southernmost province of the Netherlands.

He's 6'4" tall and he's very attractive, dashing, and striking, and although he's a peroxide blond (known as 'Captain Peroxide' and 'Mozart' in the Netherlands,) his thick head of hair and features resembles Wolfgang Mozart - who was also Germanic.

His father was Dutch and his mother was mixed Dutch and Indonesian... but he looks Germanic. I think he looks a lot like Wolfgang Mozart. I think he looks closer to Danes. I usually prefer brunet hair on men, but Geert is an exception as he's special.

Look how tall he is! He looks like a tall Dane.

So cute and adorable... :heartbea: (and the koala is cute and adorable too.)

The Dutch generally look like Germanic people (remember not all Germans and Norse people are blond, and there's naturally brunet Germanic people too.) Their robust features and heights look Germanic.

Dutch people look very similar to Scandinavians overall.

Growing up in Sweden, people told their children folklores about whenever someone had brown eyes or hair, it was attributed to having Walloon ancestry from those who came to Sweden as iron workers in the 17th century. It was almost a little like the Swedish equivalent of folklores about Native American roots in the US.

They're not far from Flemish and southern Dutch. Thing with Netherlands is that it has big genetic difference north to south, much more than between Flemings and Walloons in Belgium.
Northern Dutch are basically Scandinavian like and quintessential Germanics along with Danes.

South Dutch are more Germano-Celtic. And people call Belgium artificial state, lol. From genetic point of view it's Netherlands.

Not just from a genetic point of view. Cultural too. Linguistically even as the even the rump state (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_Republic) had Middle Dutch dialects who were so different (because they were either Hollandic, Frisian, Low Saxon or Franconic) that people couldn't understand each other. This is why there was such a move towards Hollandisation which, linguistically, began with the publication of the official (Hollandic-based) States Bible (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statenvertaling). It's essentially a rump state of an attempted state that were a bunch of Middle Dutch and French dialect speaking cities and regions under French speaking nobles that rose up against a King. Not a state. Even during the 1610s, the cities along the IJssel considered joining the HRE because their dialects and their traditions were so different from the West (who was attempting to take over everything). The fact that this state survived is purely down to two men: Johan van Oldenbarnevelt (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johan_van_Oldenbarnevelt) who pretty much used his influence to set the laws and treaties that bound us together (except the Generality Lands (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generality_Lands) which were Catholic and just occupied and sucked dry for centuries to come) and Maurice, the Prince of Orange (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice,_Prince_of_Orange) who did the conquering.

In fact you see that process reflected in our very name: we were once known as de Nederlanden (the English are the ones who get it right: the Netherlands - in plural), but during the 19th century there was a move towards a singular term "Nederland" (although, still officially, it's called het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden) because this was during a period of overpowering centralisation by Holland (something we still deal with today).

South Dutch are more Germano-Celtic. And people call Belgium artificial state, lol. From genetic point of view it's Netherlands.


However, if we separated the North from the South Dutch, then it'd be a different story. The Northern Dutch would be closer to the Danish people, while the Southern Dutch closer to the Flemish and Walloons.

Pretty much. South of the Rhine (southern Netherlands+Belgium) the looks are very varied; North of the Rhine, the Dutch look very Nordic, closer to Dane.

Danes.

The Dutch are one of the tallest (if not the tallest) of people in Europe, have good strong bones, and have a lot of hallstatt nordid types. I think the Dutch are phenotypically, culturally, and linguistically closer to Danes.

I've seen some Dutch people who look close to Walloons, but I think a larger percentage of them look closer to Danes.

I am 197cm tall (6’6) barefoot and 125kg. When I go to the Netherlands, I don’t feel small, OK. In America where I learned to speak English properly, people thought I was some wrestler or a bouncer. I don’t think I have ever been to Denmark, but I did go to Stockholm, Sweden ( definitely not short there).

I know I am not average in height. However, I am trying to make a point that Belgians aren't that different from the Dutch. In terms of male height, our country comes second in the world after the Netherlands. Thibault Courtois from Bree (Flanders) the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment, is also one of the tallest goalkeepers in the world at 199cm. We are about the same height. My brothers are around the same height as I am. One of them is 200cm.

Let us discuss.


I’d say Danes, but remember in both Denmark and Wallonia, it is the Borreby phenotype which makes up the major racial element. Slight differences in admixture, Dalofaelid and East Baltid in Denmark and West Alpine and Subnordid in Wallonia.

Denmark is more blonde and blue - eyed than the Netherlands. Although the ethnic Dutch are the blondest, bluest - eyed group in Western Europe.

Not really. Both are among tallest Europeans and there are lot of highly depigmented, Cromagnon heavy types (Faelids, Borreby, Nordocromagnids, pure Nordics too to lesser extent)
Walloons are more alpinised, visibly shorter and more brunet with softer and pretty neutral west Euro features.

Dutch and Danes have visibly sharper features, they're more robust, have square jaws and visibly more blondism. Golden blond adults are pretty common in both, unlike among Belgians.

What? Walloons are much more CM than the Dutch! The Dutch are not more robust, rather less stockier and more Nordid - looking. Remember, Belgians have the largest head size in continental Europe outside of Ireland, a perfect characteristic of the Cromagnid types ( large head size).

Northern Dutch are like 95-100% Germanic. Central Dutch tend to be around 80% so it's not that unlikely. You will have a few areas which drop to 60-65% Germanic in Limburg but 70% is pretty accurate.

Are you basing that on Y-DNA? Cause I'm talking about autosomal (overall) ancestry. South Dutch are genetically closer to Northern French than to Danes on average, hard to see how they're much more than 50% Germanic, if that. Celtic influence there is clearly massive, as it is everywhere below the Rhine.

Southern Dutch and Flemish are the most closely related, than Walloons, West Germans and at last Northern French who are themselves 50% Germanic at best according to autosomal dna. You have to understand though that the difference between Walloon and Northern France is visible let alone Flanders and Northern France.

Yes, it is true that the Southern Dutch is genetically to Northern French, they are more southern - shifted than all the British groups. It doesn’t necessarily mean it is only Celtic influence, as Northern French are the most Germanic people of France.

South/West of the Rhine (South Dutch, Belgians, West Germans, North French) is fundamentally a Celto-Germanic mixture. Above the Rhine is fundamentally Germanic, although I believe Holland is a bit of melting pot. England is also Celto-Germanic but with extra British Beaker ancestry that makes them more Northern than the South Dutch/Flemish. Central/North Dutch must also have some Celticised Beaker ancestry rather than true Celtic, as they're Western shifted towards Insular Celts, rather than Southern shifted towards Continental Celts/French etc.

I find Walloons extremely hard to find pictures of, it's like they're almost a non-existent ethnicity(same with Flemish). Their sports are dominated by minorities, Spaniards, Italians, and overall they just don't seem to participate on the world stage or even EU stage. Nonetheless, of the pictures I did find, certainly nothing close to the CM/Borreby paradise half-Russian weirdo Septenrion makes them out to be. Nothing even close to approaching a Dutchman like Semmy Schilt.

When I was doing my pigmentation study, the largest difference I noticed in the Dutch was south of the Rhine and north of the Rhine. You can see here, Utrecht is just ontop of Noord Brabant and Limburg geographically, but north of the Rhine, and much more northern shifted. Holland does seem more mixed as you suspected.

Southern Dutch and Flemish are the most closely related, than Walloons, West Germans and at last Northern French who are themselves 50% Germanic at best according to autosomal dna. You have to understand though that the difference between Walloon and Northern France is visible let alone Flanders and Northern France.

Belgians and French people from Nord - Pas - de - Calais are 40% - 45% Germanic genetically.

I find Walloons extremely hard to find pictures of, it's like they're almost a non-existent ethnicity(same with Flemish). Their sports are dominated by minorities, Spaniards, Italians, and overall they just don't seem to participate on the world stage or even EU stage. Nonetheless, of the pictures I did find, certainly nothing close to the CM/Borreby paradise half-Russian weirdo Septenrion makes them out to be. Nothing even close to approaching a Dutchman like Semmy Schilt.
Pictures of Walloons are hard to find because in Wallonia it's hard to find someone who is 100% without influence from somewhere else (italian, flemish, polish...), in that case it is similar to France. However, the pictures I posted of people from page 6 are all Walloons, specifically place I know without foreigners.
The pictures you provided are very mixed, and francophone belgians who participate in club culture are more often than not of Italian descent so it's hard to take a picture of a club scene to have an idea... and Italian descended people are the majority in Hainaut. Also absolutely no one ever said that Belgians look like Semmy Schilt. Only the Dutch look like that.
And yes, fundamentally, there is nothing such as a "Walloon" ethnicity, but just part of the continuum of the countries around, with strong provincial differences; with "pure" people few and far between as the natality of the region fell strongly during the 19th century (same as in parts of France) which was compensated by external immigrations (flemish and italian first).

One of the most controversial Dutch, Thierry Baudet, has roots in Hainaut. He's a descendent of a Walloon who migrated to the Dutch Republic from the Austrian Netherlands. Not really a period in history when Walloons moved to there.

Also interestingly, the province of Hainaut has a flag/emblem with two Flemish and two Hollandic lions due to having been under a duke who ruled over Holland, Hainaut and Flanders. Not that they ever were in the same country. ;) Anecdotal irrelevant info.

EDIT: Pierre Joseph Baudet emigrated to the Batavian Republic in 1795. Hainaut was integrated into Napoleonic France at the time. That makes more sense.

I think that is more in the industrial areas, i found some relatively "pure" Walloons in more rural towns in schools and colleges and in general they look similar to the Flemish but with less really blonde hair(though still quite fair haired in general)

Septenrion did. He implied so, anyway.

I agree Belgium will have a lot of foreign ancestry, but I highly, highly doubt the majority of Hainaut people have partial Italian descent lol. Belgium has been among the top 3 prosperous areas of Europe for the last 700 years now, so it's easy to see why they attracted a lot Italian, Spanish immigrants, etc. It's a shame really.

They have obviously less CM than Danes since most Dutch will be some kind of Nordid with a bit of CM instead of vice versa generally. Though CM admixture is within 40-50% of the population Danes are like 70-80% CM.

Danes are very rugged and robust together with Norwegians, Icelanders and Irishmen, although they are shorter than the Dutch. Borrebies are the majority component in Jutland. Denmark has a large presence of Faelids too and a few Anglo-Saxons. The Hallstatt Nordid presence is overlooked probably marginally higher compared to NL.

Danes.

The Dutch are one of the tallest (if not the tallest) of people in Europe, have good strong bones, and have a lot of hallstatt nordid types. I think the Dutch are phenotypically, culturally, and linguistically closer to Danes.

I've seen some Dutch people who look close to Walloons, but I think a larger percentage of them look closer to Danes.

The Dutch have a lot more Keltic Nordid than Hallstatt. Their tallness could be linked to the Borreby as it is taller than the Hallstatt. Rather their tallness as such, is more linked to proper nutrition. As not so long ago ( 200 years ago), the Dutch were among Northern Europe’s shortest.
The Danes are much more Cromagnid than the Dutch, despite the fact that they might be more Hallstatt Nordid.

Not. 40% - 45% is too high for the Netherlands for CMs only. It could only be so, if one adds Nordid + CM mixes.

i would not say KN has Hallstatt influences- it makes more sense to say they diverge from a Proto-strain which is already partially a result of blending of most likely different types. After all Hallstatt isnt a pure type as well, but gets mysticized on anthroboards probably because of the reason people did not understood this. Ironically many of those people posted are craniometrically Hallstatt-like or almost indistinguishable to Hallstatt Nordid, many times even closer to them than Hallstatt examples posted acutally since they can have a strong Corded element at times or go into Troender direction, which KN can do too but in a different way (aka Keltic+ Brunn for example)


Just to show a quick variety:

more of a standard type

https://i1.wp.com/i39.photobucket.com/albums/e181/Borntobeking/Keltic4.jpg

if we are strict, Cruyff would not be Keltic N- but Atlantid-Dinaric hence also the resemblence to Modric, overall he might fall though in a mesocephalic range. Jaap Staam is a better example, he is a bit high headed- so more of a Corded element present, but otherwise he fits in that more loose KN describtion

Yeah i'll give you Hallstatt influence on Will Hughes.

Harry Kane is another good example of a KN with Hallstatt influence imo.

Will Hughes is textbook Iron Age Nordic or KN. Remember that the KN hair color is much larger than that of the HN. It could vary anywhere from platinum - like blond to very dark brown. His morphology is perfectly KN.

I really don't understand why ethnic French people are so welcoming of foreigners... It seems like they have no sense of identity whatsoever!


In the beginning of 2012, people of foreign background and their descendants were estimated to have formed 25% of the total population.[4]

Of these 'New Belgians', 1,200,000 (49%) are of European ancestry and 1,350,000 (51%)[5] are from non-Western countries.

This is for Belgium! For France, it's definitely worse. ZERO popular movement against this phenomena... Fucking disgrace!

Atlantid+Alpine(not long faced at all), with minor Dinarid

Lotte is pred. KN, I'll give you that, but with Faelid admixture.

Sabrina Culver is CM+Atlanto-Med, and is a half Scottish American. Fake blonde btw(KNs shouldn't be blonde anyway, someone like Charles Dance being an exception)

Absolutely clueless.

Sabrina Culver is a generalized KN type. I don't know idea that she had a Scottish father. This explains why she looks KN but perhaps not purely so.

Carice van Houten may be KN with Subnordid tendencies shown in her cepahlic index.Her facial features are Nordid. There could also a North Atlantid element too.

Sub-Nordid admixture.

Hallstatt admixture.

Tronder admixture.

All of those being pretty obvious too.

Yeah, I don't think actual KNs:

are even common in the Netherlands, let alone making up the majority of Nordics. Hallstatt, usually with North Atlantid influence is probably the most common Nordic type.

The examples here like Peter Cushing etc aren't even common in the UK. The KNs here are almost always less extreme than the "pure KNs" you posted, i.e. mixed with other influence, brunn, tronder, subnordid, atlantid etc. Chris Martin or David Wenham types are v common KN types for example, Bruce Forsyth etc are outliers.

The Netherlands does seem to have a lot more KN influence than NW Germany and Scandanavia, where it is almost non existant, whilst at the same time being the most germanic nation around along with the Danish

Denmark is more blonde and blue - eyed than the Netherlands. Although the ethnic Dutch are the blondest, bluest - eyed group in Western Europe.

This makes no sense...

Most Dutch people live above the rivers or rather belong to the North Dutch group. Naturally, I think the majority looks closer to Danes. When looking at the extremes, for example, Friesland or Groningen and Limburg or Brabant I think the picture is pretty clear.

For anyone interested I found a few extreme North Dutch (Friesland, Groningen) and extreme Southern Dutch (Limburg) scaled G25 samples.

The Frisians/Groningeners seem to have some substantial WHG admixture, while the Limburgers have rather low levels of WHG and oblivious higher levels of EEF. The average probably accurately represents the average Dutch as a whole or Central Dutch.

Another interesting one. Germanic vs Celtic samples. Celtic samples are mostly continental but there are two British ones included. It's clear that the Limburgers have a Gaulish/Continential Celtic pull southwards. While the Frisians/Groningers are pure Germanic, Finn's parents have a Northern Celtic/Bell Beaker like component.
