African Alpinoid Adjacent

Which phenotype subsets can you claim?

:The most brachycephalic Maghrebi type, shows close morphological similarities to Alpines and in a lower degree to Armenids and Berberids. Probably not directly related to other Alpines, but the result of a similar adaption. Common in the Atlas Mountains of Algeria and Tunisia. A subvariety exists on the island of Djerba. Extends in lower frequencies across Libya, Egypt, and Morocco.

Physical Traits: Light brown skin, straight or wavy brown to black hair, usually dark, sometimes mixed eyes. Medium height, mesoskelic, endomorph. Rather brachycephalic, orthocranic with a leptorrhine, straight or convex nose. Features more angular than in other Alpinids, deep set eyes.

I can count this type as well. Being American probably upped my odds

Description: Alpinid proper, historically found in the mountain regions of Western Europe. Often a cohabitant of a second mountain type, the Dinarid. The nucleus of Alpinids lies in the Western Alps and Central France (e.g. the Swiss Disentis, the French Savoy, Auvergne and Massif Central regions). Common in Southern Germany as well (e.g. Franconia, Black Forest), the Apennines of Italy, Northern Spain, and Belgium.

Physical Traits: Fair to light brown skin, straight or wavy, usually (light) brown hair with a blonde minority. Rather short to medium height, mesoskelic, endomorph. (Hyper-)brachycephalic, chamae- orthocranic. Face wide and round with a great interorbital distance and soft features. Leptorrhine, short, small, sometimes concave nose. Female snub noses common. Forehead steep and round. Body hair not very strong

Todd Bridges? Let's see with this handy guide

This website illustrates different anthropological types of the pre-colonial world1. To start you can either click on one of the six faces above or one of the fields below.

1 There are two levels of detail: On the meta-level 38 basic types are described, that were sometimes called human "subraces". On the detailed level more than 200 local varieties are shown. Please note that the maps and most descriptions refer to the distribution around the year 1500 before the processes of colonisation and globalisation. The yellow color indicates that a type is common, the dark yellow that it is occasionally found, and the black that it is rarely found.

And Silvid

Native American group that was typical for the vast forests of modern Canada and the North American East Coast. Developed out of various Stone Age migrations across the Bering Strait. After reintroduction of the horse to America by Europeans, Silvids started to populate the Great Plains to hunt buffaloes. Later wars and disease dramatically reduced their numbers, today a few hundred thousand remain. Silvids are tall with robust bodies and large skulls of medium length, face relatively long and angular, mildly flattened, nose prominent and convex, occasional Mongolian folds, broad mouth, sturdy chin, thin lips, yellowish light brown skin. From Canada to the Great Plains, the Planid variety shows lower and broader skulls combined with longer noses.

The Appalacid variety, native to the East Coast states, shows broader noses, higher and longer skulls, as well as thinner bodies.

Just how many types of white people are there? Fascinating.

Started to develop during the Upper Paleolithic when Cro-Magnons settled in Europe. Reached its modern form after the influx of Indo-European migrants from the East around 5000 BCE (e.g. Corded Ware). Modern East Nordids (ProtoNordids, Aisto Nordids) still resemble those early migrants, the broader-faced Dalo Faelids still show similarities to Cro-Magnons.

In the East, Nordids tend to be high-skulled, in the West, low-skulled. The Hallstatt type is usually seen as the most typical modern variety. Trønders are common in Scandinavia, the Anglo-Saxon variety in Western Europe. Colonists spread Nordids all over the world (e.g. America, Australia, South Africa)

Is this the new race the social construct with a smattering of half baked science.

The OP (original poster) is a Frau troll, and those phenotypes are based on rascism and national socialism.
