I can tell at 2000 % that there is NO WAY 10 cm of difference between Dutch and French. I know that Dutch are taller than French, but it is no that much. It is pretty funny that all this studies are taking the shortest results when it is french people (I start to think that it is french bashing) and the tallest results for other countries (especially Spain). French people aren't the tallest in Europe, I agree, but we are not shorter than Flemish Belgian (181 of average in Belgium is more than a joke), Luxemburgish (about 20 % of luxemburgish are portuguese so the 179 cm as average is a joke), Italian (even in north of Italy), American, English, Russian, Brazilian, Ukrainian, etc. The shortest people I have met were people from Hong Kong (while the average there is theorically 173).  And I don't say this by national pride.
Recent studies (2001) shows an average between 175 and 177 for young french people depending on their region

People in Paris are theorically the tallest with an average of 177,5cm (almost 5'10) but I don't believe it.

here is a map about height in Italy
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Statura_Italia.png
in the red areas the male average height it's around 177cm
in the yellow area the average height it's between 175cm  and 177cm
in the blue part it's between 173cm  and 175cm
in the green part it's lower than 173cm


I can't wait the dutch average to be debunked. There is so many strangers in Netherlands (especially in Amsterdam) from Africa or other parts of the world, so the average can't be 184.
180,000 arabs
367,455 berbers
more than 9000 armenian and more than 9000 angolans and nigerian
more than 32 000 indians
more than 9500 people from Hong Kong
more than 400 000 Turkish people
more than 15 000 kurds
more than 35 000 iranians
more than 16 000 filipinos
141 000 CuraƧaoans
more than 21 000 Cape Verdeans
more than 21 000 chinese people
60 000 afghans
more than 21 000 vietnamese
350 000 Surinamese
34,631 somali people
etc (at least half of them if not more have the dutch nationality)
and this in a country of 17 millions of people. It's the same in France, UK, Germany, Belgium or UK but it is more populated countries (except Belgium) so finally it's less important
I don't know how the found this average, maybe they don't take strangers in consideration but except on internet I didn't heard anybody who went there telling me Dutch are all giants and looking at tourist they don't look taller than czech or german people. They are about the same

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Ethnic_groups_in_the_Netherlands

My conclusion is that all these numbers are bull. The proof ? Some studies show an average of 176 in Lithuania or Belgium and others shows an average of 182 in this same countries. However some numbers looks honest.

I have found some studies about african tallest ethnicities
according to Jean Hiernaux Tutsis are 176 cm in average, Masai are 173 cm, Somali and Agews (kushi.tic ethnicities) are about 172-173 cm and it is about 172 for Oromos. The study is pretty old but it's still look legit.

I put French between 1.74 and 1.77 in some regions, it is not a low average,
we know that French people have high average height, they are facts.
there is nothing to discuss further knowing that Normandy is a region formed by mostly vickings which in its time already was 1.75-1.77 average which was already a high average.

2-3cm more than 1.69 which says the survey.
I don't think that the average Brazilian is not even 1.71.
in fact the average of Brazilian men is 5.9 in the cities and 5.7 in the rural area
