Our humanity belongs to the species "homo sapiens", which in turn is divided into races. These subspecies can be defined as biological groups that have some differences in morphological features (color of eyes, hair, skin; shape of the face, nose, lips; body proportions), which are hereditary and arose under the influence of the environment in the distant past. Each of them has one origin, formation and place of origin. Scientists distinguish three largest categories: Caucasoid (white race), Mongoloid (yellow) and Negroid (black). Although, in general, there are more than 30 of them.
On the territory of Africa, Australia and Oceania live radically "dark" people. They have a slender, long-legged body, black or brown skin, and eyes and hair of the same color (hard and curly), as well as thick lips and a wide, flattened nose. Negroids are Africans, Australians and Melanesians. Currently, a large number of them live in America, since in the old days slave owners forcibly took them out of Africa.
The white race characterizes its representatives with fair or swarthy skin; soft straight (sometimes wavy) hair,the color of which can be from wheat to black; eyes can also be different: from blue to brown; narrow long nose and thin lips. They inhabit Europe, North Africa and parts of Asia. In recent centuries, the European race has spread widely across America, New Zealand and Australia.
The third species is the Mongoloids. They have yellowish skin, broad flattened face,
straight dark hair, narrow eyes, prominent cheekbones, short flat nose and medium lips. They originally lived in Asia, but, like others, they gradually expanded their habitats.
Because all races of people have the same origin and have repeatedly mixed with each other at all times, it is impossible to establish a clear boundary between them, so there are various mixed groups.
How were the above groups of people formed? The descendants of each of them lived in different places, and under the long-term influence of natural factors, due to a specific climate, peculiar morphological features were fixed in people. Thus, the white race owes its protruding narrow nose (for warming the air) and white skin to a cold climate and mild sun.
After such a classification, some scientists suggested that in human society, the driving force behind development is the struggle for existence, and this war should be waged between human species, and it was based on the natural laws of nature. They believed that the white race is biologically stronger people compared to others, and did not recognizetheir common unity. Thus, racism arose with its division into "higher" and "lower" peoples, which supposedly justified the fascist extermination and brutal colonization of Africans and Asians. who studied the history of the formation of human races and their characteristics.
