Most people fall under the Caspid, Transcaspian phenotypes (blends of Mtebid, Iranid, Turanid, Pamirid, Armenid..)

Your pic is not clear enough for classification, but you appear to be Turanid mixed

All of them look typical Baku Azerbaijanis and very different from proper Azerbaijanis (mostly Iranid) from Iran.

iranid Azerbaijanis cant be found in all Azerbaijan , different places have different look and also many people are mixed

I agree. I remember one Azerbaijani guy from Baku said: "Мы туркмены заблудившиеся в горах Кавказа" ("We are Turkmens lost in the mountains of the Caucasus")

I suggest reading a bit about "Azerbaijani" tribes and where they settled:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azerbaijani_ethnic_groups

Not all people from Azerbaijan Rep or Iranian Azerbaijan descend from these tribes so they are just turkish speaking. Obviously mixing with local people also happened in all areas. I see no point in seperating between these two populations, which is mostly done by Armenians(you) and Persians for their own personal agenda.


There is no "proper Azerbaijani"

Thanks for the link, but on your supposed agenda on my part regarding this question you're absolutely wrong. I just believe my eyes. Just compare for example the guy from this forum Meson who is Azerbaijani from Iran and these photos in this thread. Zero resemblance!

Agree phenotypical differences are there obviously. But Meson is half Lur (southwestern iranian) too so he shouldn't be the best example.

Btw only two of the guys in OP would look out of place in Iranian azerbaijan.

Well I've never been to Iran so I am not going to claim that I know the whole picture. I judge only by those Iranian Azerbaijanis whom I saw in Armenia and by those Baku Azerbaijanis whom I saw in Russia. And the difference between them in appearance is huge.
