Brazilian, Portuguese, Moldova, Bulgaria and Romania. What caught my attention, Poland and Germany has people who are 100% Ashkenazi jewish

My closest matches are Brazilians and two cousins from Moldova, the later which I know very well.

Oddly enough, for some reason, a lot of those French matches are actually French, and most of them share this Genetic group in common

France (Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Occitanie) and Northeastern Spain

which, most of the Spanish matches also have it :eek: (one of the Spanish matches is an English spy)

A lot of the Portuguese matches are indeed from Portugal and they're from Northern Portugal, as expected.

It was a joke, the match is not an acual spy, lol, it's just a 100% English person "hiding" between all of the Spaniards.
