The Sami are the indigenous people of Norway, Sweden, Finland and parts of Russia.
The Ainu of Northern Japan and Southern Russia also have very striking features.
The Basques have existed culturally in Europe for tens of thousands of years.

>>2841114The comanche adopted horses like many tribes, but unlike many they developed a full pastoralist economy around horses that allowed them to project power and collect tribute from a large area, much like the horse lords of the asian steppes. For over 50 years they held all the surrounding tribes in subjugation or alliance or just absorbed them, collected regular tribute from mexican states of new mexico and texas and chihuaha, and regularly raided deep into mexico. I think it would be cool to do a trip following one of their war trails.
>>2841114I hate Russia and Russians, OP, but the various reindeer herding cultures of Asia are based as fuck and aren't really Russians. I've written papers on them, read books on them, watched every documentary I can on them. There are similarities among reindeer herders from Scandinavia to Kamchatka, but each culture is unique.Here's a list of traditional reindeer herders, of which some to almost all members are still practicing:AlyutorsChukchiChuvany (Chuvan)DolgansDukhaEnetsEvenki/Ewenki/Evenks/TungusEvensKhantyKomiKoryakMansi/VogelNegidalsNenets/YurakNganasaOroqen/Orochen/Orochon/ElunchunSámiSelkupBasedotTofalarTozha TuvansUil'ta/Uilta/Oroks/Ul'ta/NaniYukagirAnd here are some documentaries on YouTube that I watch in the dark of winter in my cabin:https://youtu.be/8gI6q4R8ih4https://youtu.be/KDIC4pvgXqUhttps://youtu.be/-kIbHN7PmWQhttps://youtu.be/Xi80xrE3MkIhttps://youtu.be/FaMStAZCfGAhttps://youtu.be/UGQ5W4IJM5Ihttps://youtu.be/uSMhKYqeHwghttps://youtu.be/WWj2JTyjND8https://youtu.be/hmqb3Y5pMssAnd here's one of the greatest /k/ films of all time: https://youtu.be/sFaL03SKEzE
