Using the tool "Taux de similitude" for mapping Eurogenes K36 here:

I've two questions based on my own results.

1.) Who are the Northern Irish closest to or what differentiates them from Scotland or Ireland proper? I ask because while not much a of a difference, Northern Ireland was my highest number at 91, with Scotland, England, and Wales at 90 and Ireland at 89. Is Northern Irish supposed to be closer to the Hebrides/Argyll compared to Scotland proper which includes the East and Ireland proper which includes other parts of Ireland?

2.) Are the Danes closer to the Dutch than they are to Norwegians, Swedes, and Northern Germans? I would have thought them closer to the latter groups, but on my K36 mapping my Dutch score was 89 and Danish 87, whereas Northern German is 83 and Norway/Sweden 81/82.

As a third question, where do Icelanders fall on Eurogenes K36? I imagine they are closest to Norwegians, perhaps Orcadians?
