And yet in both of those countries everyone is shorter than the average person from the Netherlands.
And yet 150 years ago the average person in the Netherlands was shorter than the average person in NK today.

OK, and how tall was a person in East Asia 150 years ago. A persistent gap that does not go away despite improvements in nutrition can best be explained by...
Asian and European heights were statistically identical until they began to diverge circa 1860. This is all very well-know, perhaps you should read up a little on the field from an actual textbook and not Wikipedia articles and papers linked on /pol/.pic.twitter.com/ubaAC7W7FO
Those don't appear identical to me (particularly the lines for West Europe [where the Netherlands is] and East Asia).

he did. Blacks are about as tall as Whites so the convergences there arent weird
Height is in fact known to be strongly environmentally determined
