How exactly? Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese have both similar diets and similar genetics.
- kevin_thibedeau 11y agoModern Japanese are an admixture of earlier aboriginals who populated the islands first and an isolated group of later immigrants that was likely distinct from other East Asian groups. There is plenty of room for them to have unique phenotypes due to this.
- maaku 11y agoJapanese and Koreans are basically the same people, genetically and linguistically. At least among the consensus of non Japanese researchers. Japanese uniqueness infects the humanities as well...
- volaski 11y agoAccording to your definition of "same people", all English speaking caucasians are the same people, genetically and linguistically.
- hinoka 11y agoYes?
- 91edec 11y agoAm I missing something? English speaking countries: UK, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada. Last time I checked they all came from the UK so are genetically the same. So his definition is correct, friend.
- volaski 11y agoRead the context, friend. The original comment this guy replied to was pointing out that people may have different traits because of their exposed environment even though they had same origins. Are we all same people since we are all homo sapiens? Is a Japanese person whose great great grandfather was an American "same people" as pure breed Japanese? What is "Same people" anyway?
