    Default North Macedonia eye colour (graduate study)

    I conducted this study a while back on a now defunct website fotojasmina.com which had very high quality images of graduates from university of Skopje, but are probably from all over North Macedonia.

    Results

    N=750

    blue and grey 18,9%
    green or light mixed 6,1%
    hazel or light brown 8,5%
    brown 47,5%
    dark brown and black 18,9%


    Total 18,9% light eyes and 25% if you include light mixed ones. Overall fits pretty well with only scientific study done on Macedonians which showed 18.4% eyes labelled "blue". That study has 59% labelled "brown" which is a bit lower than what I found, but I think this is a result of the fact my source although relatively HQ still wasn't perfectly and equal to viewing the subjects live (it's difficult to distinguish dark hazel and brown unless you observe eyes very closely).

    This is what I call true research, not The Blade's bullshit where he finds Bulgaria 57% light eyed. (Macedonians are not far from Bulgarians in pigmentation)

    Once again they classify medium brown as blonde and light mixed as light. Show me a random group of "Macedonians" (aka Bulgarians) where 20% are blue eyed. Last scientific study with Romanians done in the inter-war perior showed that roughly 15% had light eyes and 5% "blonde" hair (anything lighter than medium brown). Are Bulgarians lighter?

    Your "AKA" you can put in your backdoor.

    I would show you, but that website which had a large collection of HQ photos is down. 19% is for blue and grey not just blue. By grey I don't mean grey-blue but rather grey or light green eyes.
