Germany and "them Nazis" are off-topic here.
BTW, I neither have blue eyes nor blond hair.
I used to have blond hear as a child, because my father looked very nordic, but my mother looked rather like a mediterranean person, with brown eyes and dark brown hair, and I am a mongrel. My brother and sister have blue eyes and blond hair, but they are mongrels, too, because some of their children have blue eyes, and others have brown eyes.
Blue eyes and blond hair is a recessive trait, and it becomes less and less dominant, because this racial traits were only useful in the glacial period for a limited group of people.
Since the ice began melting many millennia ago, and North Europeans began spreading around the Eurasian continent, they mixed with different other groups, but could not preserve their Nordic racial traits, because these traits are recessive. Because of the high solar radiation of most parts of Eurasia, people with low degree of pigmentation cannot survive on a long run (millennia) without a protection from solar radiation, they have a good chance to die from skin cancer.
The nature has culled out this racial traits which were predominant in the whole of North Eurasia many thousand years ago, there is a lot of archaeological and genetic evidence for that.
That is the reason why around the Eurasian continent low degree of pigmentation is associated with upper classes.
Upper classes did not have to work in the fields, they could protect themselves from the sun in their palaces, they had money for clothes. The lower classes did not have this privilege, that is why the Northern Genes were culled out from their genome, and today in many societies around Asia and South Europe white skin, blue eyes and blond hair is still associated with upper classes.
As we see, there is a simple explanation.
Today Europeans (including Germans) are mongrels, we are descendants of all European tribes that lived in this region before the modern nations were created.
South Germans are mixed descendants of Germanic, Slavic Alpine and Mediterranean tribes.
The same with North Italians.

In Sparta, for example.
The same was in other Greek cities.
Piso asked as a personal favour that the man should be pardoned, but his request was refused, which made Piso very angry: if Theophilus had been pardoned, the brother would have certainly cancelled the debt. He made a violent Speech in which he said that the latter-day Athenians had no right to identify themselves with the great Athenians of the days of Pericles, Demosthenes, Aeschylus, Plato. The ancient Athenians had been extirpated by repeated wars and massacres and these were mere mongrels, degenerates, and the descendants of slaves.

Do you have any explanation why he should invent things?
noemon wrote:If you read anything about Greece you will notice than 90% of people had brown eyes and the blonde is always highlighted as exotic which further confirms that blonde was not widespread.
So you basically agree that there were nordic looking peole in Greece, and that Greeks were of mixed race.
So why are you so stubborn with claiming that the swarthy people, representing Egyptian mummies and some people who lived in ancient Greece are the typical representation of ancient Greeks?
Is it now obvious that the overwhelming majority of Greeks neither looked like Swedes, nor like Ethiopians or Mulattoes?
Here are three picture of Mummies from Egypt:
Is it not obvious that the three person do not belong to the same race?
The young woman may be of predominantly Greek origin, but the man is of predominantly North African origin, the man or woman with the bigger nose looks like an oriental person.
The three persons, who are presumable Greeks, do not have a lot of similarities, even if we ignore the colour of their skin and hair, they are totally different, which is a prove that the Greeks mixed with the peoples in the colonies.
Only the young girl looks like a typical European girl.
The man has rather African nose, hair and lips, the woman has rather Mediterranean nose, lips and hair.
Most Greeks looked like other Mediterranean or South Caucasian people, they were Caucasians with a higher degree of skin, hair and eye pigmentation, than the North Europeans, but they had similar facial traits and a similar scull shape.
According to Renato Biasutti, frequent Mediterranean traits included "skin color 'matte'-white or brunet-white, chestnut or dark chestnut eyes and hair, not excessive pilosity; medium-low stature (162), body of moderately longilinear forms; dolichomorphic skull (78) with rounded occiput; oval face; leptorrhine nose (68) with straight spine, horizontal or inclined downwards base of the septum; large open eyes."[37]

Germans did not have significant colonies in Africa, and no Europeans brought any Slaves from the provinces to their European countries in the past, they had a sufficient high birth rate. But we can see today with our own eyes how the people from the colonies will eventually flood the countries of the former colonisers, and how quickly the demographic situation can change.
noemon wrote: People do not transform on a wholesale scale even if there is a certain level of interbreeding in their nation as we clearly observe all these parametres in the UK, Germany and France but we do not observe wholesale transformations.
Well, if the trend continuous, you will see a transformation very soon.
Do not forget that in the case of Greece or Roman empire we are talking about a period that lastet many centuries, after these countries became empires, speak conquered large foreign provinces.
What to modern Europe, they created their empires a couple of centuries ago, but they had enough of white Slaves (called serfs), who were reproducing so quickly, that they could populate North America and Australia.
Today we can see unprecedented quick transformation of Europe, due to the subversion of European institution and general decadence of European culture.
The promotion of degeneracy led to decadence, the decreasing birth rates, and, as a consequence, to the flooding of Europe from people of the former colonies.
In France and England this process began decades ago, people who spoke English or French from former colonies flooded France and England. Today all Europe is flooded, because the European civilisation became very decadent, and therefore prone to subversion.
The late Greek and Roman civilisation were also very decadent, they could not reproduce in sufficient numbers, and that is why they needed foreign Slaves, and after their collapse these empires were flooded with people from the provinces.
Slavic and Germanic tribes were the main people who flooded the Byzantine and Roman Empire, after the Romans and Greeks became decadent, that is why Europe, as a whole, did not significantly change in racial terms, and the European civilisation continued.
Today Europe is flooded with low-IQ-people from backward countries with a very different racial type, and this will be the end of European civilisation, as we knew it, if the trend continuous.
How did the term Caucasian Race come into existence?
Well, it is because the today Georgians and other ethnic groups look similar to the ancient Greek sculptures, regarding their facial traits and scull shapes.
Greek scriptures became the standard of beauty and perfection for Europeans, and European anthropologists could find people who looked like their imagined standard of beauty only on the Southern slopes of Caucasus. That is how the terms "Caucasians" and "white Caucasians" were born.
It is obvious that ancient Greeks looked similar to today Georgians, and the population of ancient Colchis was similar (in racial terms) to the population of ancient Greece. Colchians could preserve their racial traits, because they remained isolated, today Greeks are mongrels who could only preserve the Greek language.
Colchis (/ˈkɒlkɪs/; Georgian: კოლხეთი Kolkheti; Greek Κολχίς Kolkhis) was an ancient kingdom and region on the coast of the Black Sea, centered in present-day western Georgia. It has been described in modern scholarship as "the earliest Georgian formation" which, along with the Kingdom of Iberia, would later contribute significantly to the development of the medieval Georgian statehood and the Georgian nation.[1][2] Internationally, Colchis is perhaps best known for its role in Greco-Roman mythology, most notably as the destination of the Argonauts, as well as the home to Medea and the Golden fleece.[3]
Colchis was populated by Colchians, an early Kartvelian-speaking tribe, ancestral to the contemporary Western Georgians, namely Svans and Mingrelians, as well as the related Lazs.[4]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colchis
The name "Caucasian" derived from the Southern Caucasus/Transcaucasia region (or what are now the countries of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia) because he considered the people of this region to be the archetype (cf. taxonomical "neotype") for the grouping.
...
Caucasian variety—I have taken the name of this variety from Mount Caucasus, both because its neighborhood, and especially its southern slope, produces the most beautiful race of men, I mean the Georgian; and because all physiological reasons converge to this, that in that region, if anywhere, it seems we ought with the greatest probability to place the autochthones (original members) of mankind.[9]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasian_race
As we see, anthropologists did not care a lot about the degree of pigmentation of skin, eyes and hair, they cared about the scull shape and facial traits.
The Georgians rarely have blond hair and blue eyes, they have rather pale skin, but their scull shape and facial traits are very similar to what Europeans believe is the standard of beauty, which was very heavily influenced by the ancient Greece, speak the ancient Greek sculptures.
Here is an example of how typical Georgians from Colchis region look:
Any Europeans would say that these Georgians are beautiful, though they are not blond and do not have blue eyes, because this is the standard of beauty for Europeans.
That has nothing to do with "racism", that is just something subconscious, influenced by the ancient Greek art.
Some today Greeks look like their ancient forefathers, but most portraits of Egyptian mummies do not look like that, and that is the prove that they were of mixed race.
Other races have different standards of beauty, but why should we, Europeans, care about this?
