Approximately 4 feet, 10 inches

Is there any significant disparity in height between individuals, populations in your nation?
Rural populations are often taller than their urban poor, while wealthy communities are often the tallest, having access to good nutrition and usually descending of naturally tall populations. Variation is also caused by high racial and ethnic diversity.
What genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for height in your nation?
Most Malanasians descend from populations that are naturally short. Many Malanasians are also stunted from poor nutrition, usually in childhood. Although Malanasia has a high obesity rate, the overweight and obese usually eat food with little to no nutritional value. Even those in more well-off areas may suffer malnutrition in childhood due to neglect, abuse, and orphanhood.

At what height are males considered tall, short in your nation? 6'0'/182cm

At what height are females considered tall, short in your nation? 5'7'/170cm

Is there any significant disparity in height between individuals, populations in your nation?No, however heights are extremely varied among citizens and the average is not particularly common, as there are plenty of males well over 6'0'/182cm and plenty of females under 5'0'/152cm, along with the reverse.

What genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for height in your nation? A healthy diet with strict regulations that do not allow corporations to use things like corn syrup are one factor, alongside active lifestyles and a varied gene pool with significant contributions from the real-life Japanese, Mediterranean, and Nordic populations. Poverty is extremely low in Lanoraie as well, so stunted growth because of a lack of food is not an issue.

What is the average height for males in your nation?
Ephyral males reach an average height of about 6'0".

What is the average height for females in your nation?
Average height for Ephyral females is 5'4".

At what height are males considered tall, short in your nation?
An Ephyral man is considered tall if he exceeds 6'2", and short if he is below 5'10".

At what height are females considered tall, short in your nation?
An Ephyral woman is considered tall if she exceeds 5'6", and short if she is below 5'2".

Is there any significant disparity in height between individuals, populations in your nation?
Save between males and females, not really. The other races in Ephyra have a similar height ratio, though women from other races tend to be taller. The height difference between Ephyral men and women is more pronounced.

What genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for height in your nation?
Ephyral are adherents to Darwinistic ideas of reproduction. Men are on average taller because Ephyral women find such a thing desirable. Women are on average shorter because that's what Ephyral men find desirable. Multiply this by centuries and you arrive at the present day where most adult men are roughly around the same height with a four inch margin difference, and the same with women, only shorter than men.

people tend to be taller in more Northern areas, but really that's it.

What genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for height in your nation? In acient times we once where ruled by another people who where taller then us, the people up North probably have more of their genes then we do. Thought we all are mixed with them on some level and they are remembered as being very tall.

We can't imagine any way of keeping track of average height.

At what height are females considered tall, short in your nation? General Castro-Stalina is about five-foot-nothing and she's considered pretty short.

Is there any significant disparity in height between individuals, populations in your nation? Yes. We have people from every ethic group in the world, so there is a wide variety of shapes and sizes.

What genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for height in your nation? See above. Diverse genetic factors produce a wide range of heights. Since most residents claim some native Fatatatutian blood, it is difficult to explain the range in environmental terms.

What is the average height for males in your nation? The average height for an Alor male is 189.3 cm. This number is slightly lowered by minority Kheosan and Armadan populations.

What is the average height for females in your nation? The average height for an Alor female is 178.6 cm. This number is also slightly lowered by minority populations

At what height are males considered tall, short in your nation? Alor males are considered tall when they reach about 198 cm and short when they're below 179 cm.

At what height are females considered tall, short in your nation? Alor females are considered tall when they reach 184.8 cm and short when they're below 170 cm.

Is there any significant disparity in height between individuals, populations in your nation? On average, the two main minorities in the Empire have an average height that is roughly 10 cm lower than that of the majority Alor population. Intermixed populations tend to have a lower difference in height from the average Alor.

Among all populations height disparity is generally within the ranges given (barring the shift down for minorities) and individuals outside the ranges are fairly uncommon but not rare.

What genetic and environmental factors could be responsible for height in your nation? The main apparent factor in height is that it's an ethnic Alor trait. In particular, it is one tied to the genetic disaster that befell the Empire in its fifth century of existence.
