Most European and west Asian women look very similar to each other and it is hard to tell their Ethnicity. For some reason many Ukrainian woman look very distinct that it is very easy to tell that that is their ancestory is Ukrainian. Don't get me wrong I think that the look is very beautiful but I was wondering if there was some sort of genetic map or something that could explain their look. A perfect example is the girl from "That 70's Show. I cannot usually tell a Russian woman from a Scandinavian woman or English woman ect. But dispite the reletive closeness of Russia they look totally different. I hope this isn't coming out racist because that isn't my intent. Anyway thank you for your time.

The Slavs generally have a "look." It's all about ethnicity. Almost like "all black men look the same." Its mostly about people not leaving their environments and not inter-mingling. I can't explain genetics, but it is based on heredity and populace distribution. Strong jaws, bright eyes, and a sense of not traveling/venturing past your border for reciprocation. Plus, the Slavs rarely introduce sexuality toward anyone that isn't Slavic. They are selective.
As for Asians...it's the same game. You want to reproduce that which looks like you. Genetic difference is VERY BAD in those environments.

Evolution... the location can influence our appearance to a large extent. Russian women also have this distinct look. In fact, they are famous for it.
I'm from the UK and many English girls and guys are easily recognisable by their uniquely british appearance. How we evolved that way is beyond me?

The Vikings had settlements in Ukraine. I have noticed tall, statuesque, fair Ukrainians. Very lovely people. Is this what you mean?
