A group of people originating in the Dnieper area. The 'Dnieper river' runs through Ukraine.
They spread as far east as the Urals, as far south as the Bulgars, as far west as Slovakia, and as far north as Siberia.
They can be seen with the highest Slavic % of blood in areas near central Ukraine, unlike places such as Yucogslavia where they integrated with mediterranians and turkic peoples.
It is said that 300 million Slavs live in Europe, with many of them migrating to western countries like USA, UK, Australia, Canada, ect. during the past 2 centuries.
In these places, a Slav is generally very proud of their background and language, but they are known for their good-looks, with some exceptions.
Slav In a western society: a normal person (generally attractive with high cheek bones and a firm brow), someone who is intelligent, and generally a little too proud or stubbourn.
