That guy on the left lmao

Those guys would be pardos in Brazil. What percentage of East Europeans are like them, 5%?

but you cannot consider Galati to be typical Moldovan, lol. it's just at the crossroads of Wallachia, Dobrudja and Moldova, not Moldova-proper. the same as you cannot post Suceava people to be typical Moldovans.

so typical Moldovans should be Iasi, Vaslui, Ungheni, Hincesti...

The pop was barely 80k after WW2 and it was pumped up by people from all over Moldova brought for working at the Combinat, that's how my family ended up there. You are right but Galați is not that much a city made of pop from a point of crossroads but rather a mix of people from all over Moldova with a statistically more prominent south Moldavian percentage.

1948 80,411 −20.1%
1956 95,646 +18.9%
1966 151,412 +58.3%
1977 238,292 +57.4%
1992 326,141 +36.9%

No idea, I've seen Romanians scoring between 22-28 Baltic on K13. Commercial ancestry tests are not helpful at splitting Slavic from Balkan.

pretty much, untill mid 19th century it used to be part of Moldovia so it was just another moldovian city,, its barely darker than northern Moldova and we are talking here about the city not the county, cause the villages(spare a few which were populated from the south) will pretty much be the same as those in northern Moldova.

First one don't have anything dubious, but the second one really looks exotic.

The left looks like a gipsy and the right like a greek.

And my highschool class had about 40% pure blue eyes, few with deep blue irish type ones and i had 2 blonde girls and by blonde i mean yellow type not brown and 1 ginger redhead.
A classroom is not representative.
It's just the city and some new villages in the southern Moldova that are a little different, why would old villages be any different when they have not received any foreign input and until mid 19th century used to be part of Moldova like Iasi, Vaslui etc...

They look different to the Romanians in general I see in the UK... I do see some gypsy influences on a tiny number of Romanians in these pictures.
