I find that these countries sometimes can really look similar at times.

One more thing to remember no arguments please and be respectful.

Thank you.

North-western population groups overlap with one another, with Germanics and, to a lesser degree, central and south-western ethnicities (not proffered as a choice).

Dear Aviane, Finland is not a Baltic country.

The British Islanders are most similar to the Northern French, Belgians, Dutch and NW Germans.
The Isles are where the Mediterranean and Nordic elements of Europe's population really met. In France they did too, but Britain and Ireland reflect it a lot more where you can find a lot of peripheral Nordish types, especially hybrids between the two phenotypes.

Here's a map:


Blue = us, Dark Green = most similar, Light Green = similar.

This map also explains historic relations pretty well too.
