    Isn't that because the Burmese have more Indian influence?

    Yes, that and the Vietnamese have significant Han and Tai Kadai ancestry. Probably the same goes for Laotians. But I'm not sure.

    I believe so, after all they have a significant amount of Northern European ancestry for such a southerly location. Whereas Northwest Italians are closer to Iberians genetically.

    Germans can be blondier than Brits. However, the Brits on avarage undoubtedly lighter complexioned than Germans on avarage imo.

    People from Konya and Aksaray is lighter than people from Çorum on avarage, but this is a micro example. Çorum is more Northern these two.

    Skin colour differences between Europeans are not that big. (Even the difference between Finns and Maltese is not as severe in this respect as one might think). It is discrepancies in average hair and eye colour that are more pronounced, and I can assure you that Germans are definitely blonder than Britons, even if not quite at Scandinavian levels either.
