There’s an entire community of blondes in Paraguay

In 1887, Elizabeth Nietzsche, the sister of Friedrich Nietzsche, established a community of blonde people in Nueva Germania. As the name suggests, Nietzsche aimed to create a “New Germany” with predominantly white people. To start it off, Nietzsche shipped off all the qualified people to an isolated village in Paraguay. While it may sound like a mastermind’s plan, Richard Wagner’s ideals influenced Elizabeth’s decision. To this day, the village still exists.
