      Like this, China – India is quite interesting pairing. Both ancient cultures that have thousands of years shared history. Still distinctly different.

      Afghanistan-China though at the province level Xinjiang isn’t as dissimilar

      Has to be China and India. Or France and Suriname if you’re not playing fair.

      Edit: I think the question is asking, if you plucked the most average person from country A and country B, how similar are they? Obviously people near borders share similarities.

      They’re religiously different, there’s a few cultural similarities though, especially with areas the Moors were in. I’d vote China/India, or somewhere like Malaysia/Thailand.

      It would have been Mongolia and Russia if not for Russia semi-colonizing it and introducing many of their practices into their country.

      Morroco and Southern Spain share a lot, it just isn’t always evident on the surface.

      I love this question, Papua New Guinea – Indonesia is an interesting one. It’s also not crazy to say South Africa – Lesotho, though you could more easily argue similarities there. Bonus answer is Mongolia – Kazakhstan, although they technically don’t border they’re only about 10 miles apart i think that’s close enough

      Spain and Morocco share a lot more similarities than you may think

      People who are saying India/China need to read up eastern/oriental history. There’s a lot in common between the two countries.
      Music, art, philosophy, literature, teas, Buddhism, cultural practices and medicine to name a few.
      Just google a bit and you’ll know.

      Christians and Muslims can at least agree on most of the prophets and the ancestors of both countries here have been passing their chromosomes, languages, art styles, and philosophies back and forth for 2000 years (like the Romans, Numidians, and Vandals). The theocracy of the Vatican vs the Italian Republic? Sudan vs Central African Republic? Indonesia vs Papua New Guinea? Mongolia vs China? Hong Kong vs China?

      Depending on your definition of “countries”, I would think the sovereign governments of any country in the Americas with it’s indigenous peoples would probably be most distinctive — or that of New Zealand or Australia. Also depends on which culture in a country we are talking about, the uncontacted people of Brazil with Venezuelan urbanists? Either way, no, I don’t think so.

      At one point China and the UK would be a fun answer but that’s in the past now

      This line of thinking is making me think of France and Brazil or Suriname but idk enough about those countries to say anything certain

      Norway and Russia

      Economically developed Nordic social democracy with a Germanic language and Protestant religious background, with high levels of respect for human rights.

      Middle income kleptocratic autocracy with Slavic language and Soviet and Orthodox background, with high levels of militarism and imperialism.

      Also, honourable mentions for North and South Korea (share a language but very different in many other aspects), Brazil and France, Israel and Egypt, Yemen and Saudi Arabia (vast economic difference).

      As Dave Letterman once said:

      >American bacon: crispy and delicious
      >Canadian bacon: neither crispy nor delicious.

      That’s a cultural divide!

    24. cowcaver on

      Turkey and Bulgaria? Pakistan and China? Sudan and CAR? I’m feeling like there might be some more in Africa.

    25. kinkade on

      Japan and Russia would have been an awesome one for this when they shared a border in Sakhalin

      Mongolia and Russia?

      Mongolia is primarily Buddhist, don’t eat much fish, and live very primitive herding lifestyles overall.

      Russia is primarily orthodox, love fish, and seem fairly technologically engaged.

      One is a former super power. The other is still barely known.

      Completely different languages and genetics.
