    Default Are Norwegians the most similar looking ethnicity to the British?

    Apart from the Irish I think that Norwegians can often exhibit very similar looks to the British compared to other European nations, they are less alpinised than the Germans, less tall and robust than a lot of Dutch, more varied than Danes and less eastern than Swedes.

    Norwegians are way too dolichocephalic to resemble us. Lots of thin heads too, like Dutch sometimes have too.

    I meant that, apart from the Irish, the Northern French and Belgians resemble the British the most.

    Norwegians are still blonder than Brits.

    Dutch, Flemish and West Germans are by far the most English-looking foreigners, followed by the Irish.

    After that you can stress places like France and Scandinavia.

    I have been told that coastal Norwegians are different than those from more inland areas.

    Well they are among the most similar groups to the British, which is hardly surprising, given history and geography.
