Why do people from Africa look so alike?

People from Africa have historically been connected by culture, language, and trade which has resulted in them appearing more similar to each other physically due to intermarriage and sharing of the same environmental influences. This geographical and cultural unity has also given rise to genetic homogeneity that can be found among individuals with African ancestry. Additionally, the migration of people from sub-Saharan Africa across oceans resulted in African diaspora communities across the globe who still maintain many aspects of their traditional heritage, further contributing to an increased awareness and identity among those whom may originally share cultural roots originating in Africa.

People from Africa look so alike due to common ancestry. Generations of intermarriage within certain ethnic groups has created a genetic and physical uniformity among African populations. In addition, many African ethnic groups have similar environmental adaptations that have shaped distinct facial features over time.
