DNA Differences Between Northern & Southern Europe…
What are the DNA differences between northern and southern Europeans, and how different are they? Now the first difference is in how Europeans look and physical traits, and this actually speaks to the genetics in many ways.
For instance, there are noticeable differences in average height across the continent. Northern Europeans, especially Dutch and Scandinavian populations, are among the tallest people in the world, with northern Europeans generally taller than those in the south. The Dutch are the tallest people in the world, with men in the Netherlands averaging around 183–184 cm tall (or about 6'0"–6'0.5"). Dutch women are on average roughly 170 cm (or about 5'7") tall. Blond hair is also much higher in northern Europe of course. Blue eyes.
But why is this?
