So I looked for factual basis in this, because I remember reading this somewhere, and goddamn it I couldn't find it, but I swear I read this theory somewhere recently...I'll keep looking...at any rate...
...the theory goes way, way, way, back...that some ruling King basically had the hottest women from all over Eastern Europe and Russia imported, if you will...these were the spoils for his generals and the like...and the theory goes that over time, many, many years mind you, because these women were placed into a concentrated area, and lived and bred there, the good looks continue to appear today.
Take what you will from that. Actually kinda makes sense. I fucking wish I had proof to back this **** up...like I said, I'll keep looking for it...
