1. IQ of Europeans in Europe

The average IQ is 99 for Central, North and East Europe. An IQ of 99 is the best estimate of the intellectual genotype of Europeans because the other areas are hybridized. The average I.Q is a little lower in Portugal (95) because the country has experienced an hybridation with Africans. It is the only country in Europe to have brought African slaves from its colonies and to hybridize with. Today, the Portuguese genetic pool has 20% of African genes, which explains their smaller brain size and lower IQ. This average IQ lower than the rest of Europe is in line with Portuglal’s low GDP per capita, lowest in Western Europe.

The average IQ is also lower in the Balkans, 92.5 on average, as these areas have been hybridized by continuous gene flus across the Dardanelles Strait. The average cranial capacity in these regions is also lower than in the rest of Europe.
