    I'd say they look more German.

    From personal experience: Can look like both but lean more towards Dutch.

    This is an absurd question: Belgians do not exist as an ethnic group. Native ones are either Flemings or Waloons. Flemings speak and look Dutch/German, Waloons speak and look French.

    Nonsense. French and Dutch each look different from each other. It is very well known that flemish and Walloon are not easy to distinguish from each other, so each leans to a neighboring population at most.

    Dutch women often are as tall as or taller than me, whereas I'm 183 cm. They have different phenotypes present there from ours alright. But it's not a bad feature necessarily.

    They look more like the French, imo. I’ve even met many Flemish people who have looked French.

    Walloons and Flemish mostly differ in language but not phenotype. It's a very tiny country so the divide in looks isn't that great.

    And the "local" phenotype continues beyond its borders, following the Rhine and Danube in Germany.
