They do overlap with all but the most with Russia, they are however more homogenous than Russians and are overwhelmingly light-eyed.
Light hair is also bit more common (on par with Latvia and Lithuania)
But most importantly, facial features wise they differ from some their neighbours like Poles.
). I'd say Russia > Ukraine / Lithuania > Latvia / Poland.
There are certain Belarussians that can hardly be Polish. These are foreign looks.
This one looks East Slavic AF. His surname though is distinctly Belarussian so he surely isn't simply a Russian from Belarus.
I've seen this fleshy lips shape copy-pasted on many Belarussians, among Poles you would have a hard time finding it.
And some who can very well.

They are not though. They were inhabitants of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, unlike Russians. Belarussian language distinguished itself from Ruthenian language as early as the fourteenth century (the other language stemming from Ruthenian is Ukrainian and Lemko-Rusyn Ukrainian). Very similar language to Belarussian was in common official use in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
Obviously Belarussian is similar to Russian, and together with their dominating political course is the reason for its modern downfall. It's a shame because it's one of the most beautiful Slavic languages.Some authors take the year 1300 as the date of the disintegration of Russian and Belarusian-Ukrainian dialects and the year 1600 as the date of the divergence of Belarusian and Ukrainian dialects. In all three environments, their own language was still called Ruthenian The differences, initially insignificant, have been increasing more and more over time, and therefore it is impossible to indicate the exact date. The disappearance of the Ruthenian literary language in the Polish-Lithuanian lands in the seventeenth century and its replacement with Polish literary language increased the influence of the Polish language on the Ruthenian dialects, deepening even more the differences between the Belarusian-Ukrainian dialects and the Russian language.
