How do the facial features of the Chinese differentiate from those of the Japanese?

And other Asian races, such as Vietnamese, Korean, etc. Because I would like to be able to tell the difference at a glance, just like Asians usually can. Thanks.|||China is such a huge country there is actually quite a lot of difference in appearance between people from different regions. In places like Manchuria which had a heavy Japanese influence, you might have a hard time figuring out a person%26#039;s ancestry just from appearance. It%26#039;s like going to some foreign place and identifying someone as being %26quot;American,%26quot; there%26#039;s no one standard face and you might go by clues having to do with bearing or clothing.





It%26#039;s also a myth that Asians can tell other Asians apart with perfect accuracy.

They tend to be darker than the other Asians, although not by much. And their eyes are less %26quot;squinty%26quot; - that%26#039;s the best way to put it, I hope the term doesn%26#039;t offend anyone!





I can%26#039;t tell the Chinese, Koreans, and Vietnamese apart, unfortunately. There are differences, though, I%26#039;m just not good at spotting them.
