Why do so many modern day Greeks look Middle Eastern and not white? I am Korean...

Do you know how big Russia is?

Yes I do. I read a book about Russia and it said "some descendants of the Persians reside in Russia". My friend who is half Greek, half Russian has olive skin, light-colored eyes [Blue], and dark hair [Dark brown]. Her dark hair [dark brown] is very very curly. Russia is so big that some Greeks and Russians have mixed.

Thanks! By the way, so many different ethnic groups reside in Russia that mixing [say half Greek, half Russian] is becoming dominant in people of partial Russian descent.

So why ask. People intermarry. People migrate. Get a DNA test for about $100 and your own ethic background may blow your mind.

like that lady [half greek half russian] i mentioned, are you greek and russian?

decent. That's an American thing. You're an American but of Italian, Irish, German and Native American decent. In other words, like the rest of humanity, we're mutts. We're all mutts. Some intermarriages go back a long way and some are more recent but ultimately we're all the product of human migrations.

descent not decent

I said I'm of Korean, Ukrainian, Japanese, Turkish, and Azeri descent, but I look completely Korean.

You mean you look Asian which is dominant. I have a Korean relative who has an adoptive cultural family in Japan. She is pure Korean but Japanese people stop her on the subway and ask for directions in Japanese. There no difference between a lot of Asian peoples. I'm extremely fair. I have a very strong feeling I have gypsy blood, as well as Russian and Jewish and Irish and Polish and Swedish and maybe more I don't know about but I was flaxen green-eyed, peaches and cream blond. So what?
