Kinda a boring question but still wanna dispute over this on this forum.
First off, the rank ordered and the statistics offered by Lancet are all bs and you can check them out in one of my last posts which made the jig up. You'll see Lancet's true colors and how hilarious it is being. (Reminder: It's literally bs that North Korea's average height is 174cm)
IMO, South Sudan or Montenegro can win the champion in the average height cuz for once I searched their offcial average height statistics and they showed that the former was as tall as the latter and they were equally around 183.8cm tall barefoot.
More interesting, there is a ytuber posted a vid about the highest race——Sudanese. And you can enjoy it here:
