Ofcourse they look alike in almost every aspect because the Altaic peoples exist despite some trying to refute it.

Japanese look like Kyrgyz. Not the other way round. Kyrgyz are older and if you look at migration routes Japan would have been colonised after Centra asia. The theory is that Japanese were a tribe of Kyrgyz that left and colonised the island. In fact the Kyrgyz word for wild is жапайы pronounced japai. This isn’t definitive proof and none exists as records of this part of world were held by china and then stolen by the Japanese during Second World War.

Even here in Australia where I live its like that. You do of course get the white guy asian girl couple every now and then but that's not to say the white guy will ever have asian guy friends or suddenly start hanging out with asian guys or the asian female will have white female friends because you hardly see this happen as well. The kids from these relationship from my observation usually end up hanging out with asians as they don't seem to be accepted by whites in the friend circle for some reason.

Japanese and Kyrgyz people have a lot in common

[@eger-ok]

There is absolutely no similarity if not taken into account what both people are Asians only in this regard, genetically kyrgyz Kazakham Mongolas and other Turkic backgammon are close to Hungar, And Japan is close to such nations as China Korea Vietnam Thailand Philippines and Malaysians, the Japanese may have ever had similar genes from the West Siberian race in the past but now there is nothing in common For them, the Japanese are the same Chinese, they do not particularly distinguish the language of the alphabet culture the same and these countries do not like the Chinese Japanese Koreans You know why they love more Russia not because of the Russians just in Russia there are truly native people such as Tatars Bashkirs and so on their many and all of them Muslims

[@mn8931]

huh? They don't look Japanese at all... closer to Koreans and Chinese

If you ask random people in the streets they will say you that their Muslims. Because people don't want to be judged, there are a lot of aggressive believers , so people just want to avoid conflict with them. Usually those are southerners, they have more religious traditions. Nomad people before USSSR were not Muslims, they believed to their own god. During Soviet Union we became atheists, but women in countryside usually cover their head , not like hijap , just traditional way of covering. Covering hears for married women is our kyrgyz tradition that's why they do.

[@Asanbai746]

I advise you to read the history of the Kyrgyz before the USSR, there were Muslims under the Kokand Khanate, and before that, too, why are you writing all sorts of nonsense if you don’t know the History of the Kyrgyz.

[@lili-i9s]

@@Asanbai746 I am kyrgyz from Issikkul, that's why I know my history. In Issikkul before and after usssr there are were not many Muslims. I remember my great grandparents who were nomads before usssr, even they didn't know anything about this religion. In practice they still believed in our own god "Tengri" . Kokand khaganate tried to spray Islam into our life's, but it didn't affect as much as they wanted.

It is just you're wearing a mask, don't be offended... Also, Kyrgyz climate and weather is almost same as Tohoku region in Japan. Especially, Sendai (excluding radiation). The air is so fresh and clean so you breath it deep in your lungs.

[@keikeikeiland]

Copy/paste: "No I only wear my mask for the few seconds that it takes me to show my face on camera, the rest of the time I'm not wearing it so that's not the reason."

[@keikeikeiland]

Except for Bishkek where I was coughing because of the air pollution.

[@jpbilim7905]

I see. But yeah, in winter the air quality was the most polluted in the world. The smog out of the central powers station is the reason of CO2 and pm 2.5. As I said, all is the same as Tohoku region, especially Sendai where people still use coal for heating the houses. Also, your outfit could be the reason as well why people stared at you. Hope you liked Kyrgyzstan.

[@keikeikeiland]

what do you mean??? why not to say just Kyrgyz??? they have no common things with Japanese, and what's wrong if they speak russian? what's wrong if they are muslim?? btw russian language spoken only in capital, also not everyone is muslim there. that's not cool walking and taking a video of random kyrgyz people without their permission

[@TehAbdullah]

He didn't say all Muslim ☪ from what the street people say is 95 percent are and always when I ask that's what they say also the greeting amongst men is asalaam alaykum and men to women say salamaat cizby or salamaat chylyk. And the locals it's the same thing as asalaamalaikum with just Kyrgyz honorifics styled like the way Japanese categorization of greetings based on the type or level of person you are talking to.

[@zeromiedo1227]

So is this a mixture of Asians and Russians?

[@sardoruzbek6409]

Nope. This is mixture of ancient iranics + asiatics (turkicmongols)

[@0dyssey987]

where are the Russians from? the ancestors of the Kyrgyz lived on the Yenisei and were fair, even the Chinese spoke about this in ancient sources, we were in the Soviet Union for only 69 years, we could not mix so quickly

[@nasersaleh6836]

When I was young, I wanted to marry an Asian, but due to faith differences I knew I couldn't marry a Japanese or a Korean. Since Kyrgyz are of the same faith and Asian (along with other factors), I ended up marrying a Kyrgyz woman.
