Best Answer

Mongoloid is a historical race category referring to people of a certain skeletal structure. This group includes the Chinese, Japanese, Korean, South East Asians, Polynesians, Austronesians, Maori, Inuits, Arctic people and several Central Asians. Sometimes, Native Americans are included in the category, but they are sometimes classified as their own distinct race.

Mongoloids look the same because they share a lot of the same DNA traits and characteristics. This is the same reason why people with Down Syndrome all look similar or why little people all look similar.


Are the natives of America mongoloids?

Under that racial classification, yes, at least most of them are. Native Americans descended from somewhere around the Altai mountains. Altai people are Mongoloids. The Arctic Americans are neo-Mongoloid, and are recent arrivals from Asia. However, it may not be a good idea to classify people based on Mongoloid/Australoid/Negroid/Caucasoid/Capoid, as the system is arguably outdated.


What race are the people of Pakistan?

Majority of the Pakistanis are classified as Caucasoids, while their are sizable minority of Capoids and Mongoloids. South Asia has had a history of migrations and invasions from different parts of the world leading to population exchange, which has blurred the lines of race. In modern Pakistan, Ethnic groups are a measure of race more than the color of skin or eyebrow ridges. Some of the most prevalent ethnic groups in Pakistan are Punjabis (who are mixed), Pushtuns (who are majority Caucasians), Sindhis (who are mixed) and Baluch (who are majority Caucasians). Capoid groups include Brahui, while Hazara, Tajik and Uzbek groups are Mongoloids.
