There is actually empirical evidence to support the Finns.
From memory....
Their Olympic basketball team has been the tallest in the Games many times.
They also lead the world in several diseases that are statistically linked to height, like Marfan syndrome.
They have a very high rate of Atrial Fibrilation, which is linked to height.
Regionally, they have the highest rate of Melanoma, which is linked to height in countries that do not have high sun exposure.
Also, Holland is 5 times more diverse than Finland.
30% of Hollanders are not native born.
About 95% of Finns are native born.
I'll send you some medical citations later this evening - no time at the moment.
We have Marfan Syndrome in our family.
Any information on the Neanderthal %age found in Finnish DNA? Is it all in the 1 to 4% range, or does some go higher?
