    Default Rank other European ethnicities from most to least similar looking to yours.

    For example, I'd say for southern Italians/Sicilians:

    Completely similar: Maltese
    Mostly similar: Greek, Cypriot, Central Italian
    Significantly similar: Ashkenazi, Sephardi, North Italian
    Somewhat similar: Spanish, Portuguese, Bulgarian, Albanian, Macedonian, Romanian, French, Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian
    Mostly not similar: Germans, Austrians, Swiss, Brits, Irish, Belgians, Dutch
    Not similar at all: Scandinavians, Finns, Saamis, East Slavs in general, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians

    Well you admit that the Portuguese are not so different to Sicilians and other Southern Europeans - that's progress I suppose.

    Anyway, for Brits it'd be more-or-less like this:

    Completely similar: Irish.
    Mostly similar: Northern French, Belgians, Dutch.
    Significantly similar: Germans.
    Somewhat similar: Southern French (they are not as different from Northerners as some think), Icelanders, Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, Swiss, Austrians.
    Mostly not similar: Iberians, Northern/Central Italians, Finns, Baltics, Poles, Czechs, Slovaks, Ukrainians, Russians, Albanians (I put them above other Balkan groups, given that some of their Borrebies can look passably British).
    (I am not sure whether to place Hungarians as "mostly not similar" or "not at all similar").
    Not at all similar: Southern Italians, Maltese, Greeks, Cypriots, Yugoslavs, Bulgarians, Romanians.

    Completely similar: ......
    Mostly similar: Spanish (not completely similar, although just mostly similar seems an understatement)
    Significantly similar: Southwestern French, Greek women, central Italians, Sardinians
    Somewhat similar: Greek men, Northern and Southern Italians, maybe central/western and southeastern French
    Mostly not similar: Irish, British, central, northern/eastern part of France, Swiss
