Thread: People in Eastern Russia

What are their facial features/physical appearance like? Do they resemble the Native Americans in North America, or Japanese people? I'm just curious.

Traditional ethnic groups
The original population groups of the Russian Far East include (grouped by language group):

Turkic: Sakha
Eskimo-Aleut: Aleuts, Inuit, Siberian Yupiks (Yuits)
Chukotko-Kamchatkan: Chukchi, Koryaks, Alutors, Kereks, Itelmens
Tungusic: Evenks, Evens, Nanais, Orochs, Ul'ch, Udegey, Orok
Isolate: Yukaghirs, Nivkhs, Ainus

For details about each group see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Far_East

Thank you.

There are also tons of Russians there who look the same as in Mosseqoi.

What is that? Did you mean - as in Moscow?

Of course there are many other people. I was talking about traditional, original language groups of the Russian Far East.

Sounds as if the "Far East" of Russia is really "not Russia" but "Asia".
As we say in America "What goes 'round, comes 'round!"
