    That's quite a good selection regardless, Romanians are quite varied though the large proportion unfortunately don't look at all British

    She belongs to the 10-20% that look like the Rus people (very common in NE, much less common in SW). Average Romanian doesn't look like that... Romanians don't resemble either Brits, nor Afghans

    Romanians may be swarthier than Brits because of Mediterranid influence. But I wouldn't say they're closer to Afgans, nah.

    Maybe Afghans is too much of a stretch. But would you say that Romanians are closer to Brits or to Georgians, Armenians, Turks and maybe even Lebanese and Syrians?

    Georgians, Chechens, Turks, the Lebanese and coastal Syrians have transcontinental populations.

    About 10-15% of Romanians have phenotypes that are a mix of European and non-European traits. These Romanians do overlap with certain Turkic/Turkish and Caucasus populations.

    Overall, Romanian do not have a larger overlap with Turks than Italians have with Lebanese/Tunisian populations. Romanians have been for centuries on the edge of Europe (they have assimilated Jassic (Iranic) and Cuman (Turkic) tribes and were neighbors to the Golder Horde) and it makes sense that some amount of non-European phenotypes to be now part of the Romanian mixture.

    Regardless of the percentage she represents within the entire Romanian population, what could be more 'British' than the British Royals? The irony of a Romanian-born individual (from Focșani) being chosen from, presumably, tens of applicants for the role of Queen Elizabeth II in a movie, might ironically address the question 'Do Romanians integrate better in Britain or Afghanistan?'.

    Please pardon my irony, as I am weary of this type of insidious questioning that goes against the evident truth

    I would say closer to Georgians and Certain Turkish populations, possibly Armenian( I'm not too informed about their types so I can't really have a opinion on that) and then British . To say Afghans is a stretch but mention Lebanon and Syria is quite intriguing. The latter have types passing in southern Europe but very rare for them to look eastern euro / Balkan. Meanwhile for Afghans you can find types that wouldn't look out of place in Romania, just look at my thread with the Afghan contestants https://www.theapricity.com/forum/sh...-in-Game-Show)

    Either way, my answer is Britain just because both are European countries and I don't want people getting their knickers in a twist.
