In my previous post(s) I described some typical traits of people from the Germanic countries. These Germanic countries are all in mid-north Europe and share some typical things. First, they all have a high percentage of blondes. Second, the most common eye colour is blue, green or grey. Germanic countries are for example The Netherlands, Sweden, Iceland and Germany.
 

Of course, not everyone looks like a typical person. These Germanic countries also have a lot of people with brown hair. Also black and red hair are no rarity.

The southern parts of Europe

When we travel to the south well see different people. France, Spain, Portugal and Italy all have different looking people. The most obvious difference is hair colour, followed by eye colour. People from southern parts of Europe are more likely to have brown or black hair. Also, they tend to have more darker eyes (brown in different shades). 

People from France are called French. France is a very large country and internationally very famous for a lot of different things. The capital city is Paris, also known as the city of love. It is actually hard to describe the typical look of a French person because the country is extremely large (in comparison with other European countries). French from the norhtern parts of France are ususally lighter (more blond, lighter eyes).

People from Spain are called Spaniards. Spain is also quite a large country all the way in the south of Europe. Its capital city is Madrid. Spanish people have brown eyes and dark coloured hair. Of course, not all Spaniards are typical. There are also Spanish people with blue eyes and blond hair, though less common. In some areas (east coast), light eyes are very rare. 

When we go to Spains neighbouring country, we see Portugal. People from this coutry are called Portuguese and they tend to look a lot like the Spaniards. This is of course no surprise since both countries are neighbours and share a lot of common things. There are differences between Portugal and Spain on some specific domains (political, cultural), but when it comes to the physical looks there are hardly any real differences. 

Italians are from Italy. This large country is also part of the European latin world. People from Italy speak Italian and the capital city is Rome. The typical look of an Italian is actually very hard to describe since this country is extremely long. People from the north of Italy look very different than those from the southern parts. People from the north are lighter and have lighter eyes, though brown is still most common.
