  Well, Africans from almost all parts of Africa look more similar to each other than people from different parts of Europe (eg: Greece vs. Germany).  Bah. Europeans are a very homogenous group of people. Apparantly you have never actually been to Greece or Germany or been around many Germans and Greeks. I have been to Greece(but not Germany) and the people I seen looked White like anyone else I'd ever seen. I am from Michigan, and like the rest of the Midwestern states, the vast majority of Michiganians are of German descent, also SE MI particularly around the cities of Detroit and Flint(the region I was born and raised in) is home to the largest concentrations of ethnic Greeks and Macedonians in America. So I am very familiar with being around people of both German and Greek descent and I've never really noticed a striking difference in their appearance. Especially not between Greeks and South German Alpine types who have a tendency to be a bit more swarthy than north Germans.
