    Well genetically I always come up with North Dutch and I'm Irish not Anglo-Saxon. There is obviously some closeness in genetics whether it suits people or not. On any Gedmatch calculator I'll get North Dutch first or second. I look at this as a similarity in genes not that I actually have Dutch ancestry although I'm not 100% sure of that because I do get some French/German on 23andMe and I don't know what the reason for that is yet.

    Brown eyes and brown hair are common in Germany. Only the Nazis portrayed Germans as Nordics or Scandinavians.

    Who cares what the nazis portrayed now ? Its a fact germans looks more stereotypically nordic+cm meanwhile the british Islanders are very atlantid on average.
    65% of germans have some form of light hair (blonde, lightbrown or red)
    And 65-70% have light eyes.

    Uk is more dark haired and atlantid looking.

    Genetical matches not always translate into physical similarity. The Irish look very atlantid compared to the dutch. There could be some old substrata overlaping but the large % of dna could be different.

    What is Atlantid but an old racial term and not really very scientific. Anyway Atlantids are mostly brown eyed and dark haired that is not the standard in the British Isles. The dna doesn't suit you so you bring in some mumbo jumbo which doesn't mean anything. I don't really want to go back and forth on this thread talking to someone who has an obsession on this subject and will never change their mantra. I also get annoyed that people aren't honest enough to portray themselves as they are. You don't even post your true nationality.

    Brits have a lot of pale skin and light eyes, but they lack the hair blondism and nordid-cromagnid features (and heights/builds) of other northeners
    Says the guy who believes Brits look like Iberians.

    "Atlantid" is a made up term that means nothing.
