If we had been evolving for so long wouldn't there be a dominant race by now or at least much more uniformity? It just seems strange that there are so many different races of one species and they are so different in appearance.
Don't get too hung up on appearance. We're really not that different at all.
Two randomly chosen Koreans may be genetically as different as a Korean and an Italian. Any ethnic group contains 85% of the human genetic diversity of the world. Genetic data shows that no matter how population groups are defined, two people from the same population group are about as different from each other as two people from any two different population groups.

Hence compatibility with breeding, yet I am hung up on the fact that the longer we have gone the further the diversification. According to evolutionary theory should one or the other have a competitive advantage and win out?
