    As you can see, the Southern French councillors are not so dramatically different from their Northern French counterparts and, in most cases, do not look especially Iberian or Italian.
    If I didn't list southern French or northern Italian, who would you have then chosen?

    Well each ethnic group has distinctive types and more pan-Mediterranean or pan-European types.

    That way you would ruin the purpose of this thread, which was to single us out as "distinct".

    That was his words not mine.

    I mean the countries generally accepted as South Euro, and not ones that are considered Balkan, except Greece. Otherwise people will choose one of those as the most different, easily.

    If you do something, do it properly.

    I will choose Slovenia that way.

    Many Northern Italians look Northern European while all other southern Euros are Negroid/Arabid mixes .
    (MacDonald) A custom fit resolves the differences above and says:

    Irish 0.2294 Tuscan 0.7706 or
    English 0.4437 Sicily 0.5563 or

    I am interested in knowing only about Iberians, southern French, Italians and Greeks. Not Balkanites who will surely be chosen by nearly everyone.
