    So CV is wrong and I'm not talking about hair and eye color.

    Yes, in features Germans resemble Scandinavians much more than Greeks too.

    Greece is its own thing. Comparing a part of a former trascontinental empire to a homogeneous secluded Northern country like Sweden whose population probably descends from bottleneck effects is a bit too far fetched.

    Haven't most Southern European countries been formerly parts of large empires (whether Arab, Austro-Hungarian or Ottoman)?

    Greece has had territories in Asia since the Mycenaeans. Not really comparable.

    So are you admitting that there is a considerable non-European element to Greek ethnogenesis and culture?

    Considerable relatively to Swedes and the Western Mediterrenean.

    Who are the idiots that voted for Sweden? Wtf, most Swedes are Nordic to at least Atlantid! They barely pass anywhere below fucking Poland. Greeks definitely have types that pass in the southeast, centre and even western Europe.
