  1. Indo-europeans were differentiated by their red or blonde hair, pale skin and blue eyes. Some Afghanis still have those features in isolated regions as they are survivors of the various migrations since. Central Asia still had such populations prior to the Mongols, but before Russian Imperialism Asia was pretty thoroughly Arabised, Turkified and so on, the famous pathians had European features, as did many other steppe nomads, they even existed in China for some time, but were wiped out by the Chinese, who noted it was easy because of how they looked. The most purely descended people today are Germans and Scandinavians, but historically the nobility of most European countries had strong Germanic roots, and going before then there is considerable debates over whether ancient Mediterranean people's had more generic influence from them, it is quite likely that they did, though by no means certain.

  2.  @Hotasianchick  Most steppe cultures are noted as having a loose relationship with languages, with different ethnic groups changing them depending on the preeminent power at the time. However the interest in such peoples is related directly to their relation to ourselves, this is the only part of them very much worth discussing, as the study of them is largely along the terms of influence upon the later cultures. Given that we exist I will put no stock in anything you say, historians and experts are constantly talking about genetic genealogy and historical accounts relating to this region, and these people's. And though I take much less of an interest in it myself I will trust the fact that definitive stable populations which features that would not be retained without a good deal of genetic isolation (which is unusual from steppe populations) was required for them to exist both now and in written historical accounts. I will trust that the goths were germanic considerably more than that they appeared out of nowhere in a land full of people accounted to much later. People's like the Alans and Avars still exist in southern Russia, it is not hard to link current people's to those of thousands of years ago, the problem is with liars and distorters who wish to justify the eraser of people in current existence by claiming they didn't exist in the past.
