Turks, Pakistanis, Afghans. Which one do Iranians look like the most?

Poll added.

[Impaler]

Halfway between Turks and Afghans.

[Demhat]

Genetically they built clearly a cluster with Turks. Physically they are unique in their own way.

Genetically they built a cluster with Turks. Physically they are unique in their own way if with Iranians you refer to the Persian speaking core of the country.

IMHO, although they are genetically very close to Turks, they look more like Afghans.

[Immanenz]

More like a mix of Kurdish, Iraq and Afgan imo- but overall they are their own thing

[Zoro]

Genetically they cluster with Kurds, Afghans and Balochis and Azeris.

S Iranians have much less steppe, whg, E Asian, Siberian, scythian than kurds and afghans but more iran-n and AASI and many look like Indians and Pakistanis (kurds and afghans less numbers who look Indian)

Kurds make up almost half of Iraq.

Stop with your BS. Almost nothing of your comment is true.

Oh really what part is BS? I can prove every part of my comment can you disprove any of mine?

In case you are not fully awake dumbass the definition of Iranian is everyone within the political boundaries of Iran

You want to prove your point with Kurds from Turkmenistan again?

1. S.Iranian don't have less Steppe than Kurds.

Yazd, Kerman which can be considered S.Iran has more Steppe than Kurds.

2. S. Iranians don't have less East Asian/Siberian


As you can see Fars region (South Iran) has more East Eurasian than Kurds. North Iran probably even has a bit higher because of the number of Azeris living in North Iran. Overall I would say Iranians as a whole definetly have more East Eurasian than Kurds.

3. You didn't prove Kurds have more Scythian. You just showed that Kurds from TURKMENISTAN have more Central Asian similarity than all other Iranians from Iran including Western Iran meaning Kurds. A laughable attempt to twist facts.

4. Yes Iranians tend to have more Gedrosia/Indian than Kurds. But they don't look Indian. Afghans have higher numbers of Indian looking people as Iran. As they also have much higher Gedrosian and AASI than Iranians. But both groups don't look Indian.

5. Iranians don't cluster with Balochs at all.


Iranian groups cluster except for Balochs:

"Principal components analysis indicated that, apart from Baluchs, Turkmen and Persian Gulf Islanders, who form their own clusters, rest of the population were genetically linked, forming a super-population"


I don't respect you anymore as you are willingly and I assume knowingly spread misinformation and I hope you will be banned someday. And I think that most Kurdish members here would agree with me on that.

Afghans. By the way, there is no definite Turkish look. We are phenotypically very diverse.
