Similar case is the king of Holland. Is he German (as oldest memory says) or Slav (as hg points)?
I would not be able to say clearly, becasue it could be that some "slavic clades" were earlier as
we think they were. Maybe with time and more kopalnych samples it could be determined easier,
but in such cases the farest as I would go it is familiy's matter to decide with which identify more.
Probably. But I would not totaly exclude Szottish element.Quote:
But it also does not correlate with Germans. It was probably from Celts who settled in Poland.
As they started to going stupid at that time, I trust more polish wikiQuote:
In 1980 census, English was the most frequently reported ancestry in the USA:
which says 80mln, and what was not so far ago on english wiki too.
The points in Lithuania could suggest Szots.Quote:

So if some Polish person has a German ancestor with similar genetics, then this Polish person is still not different than an average Pole. Because that German ancestor was very Eastern.
You say, that it is not true, that 80 mln people comes from england, becasue Americans are mixed (as it would be not known). So I asked you - what about people, who came to America on Mayflower. They were from England so logically were Englishmen, so now, since they landed, are american English... or - as you supposed - they in some way became Indians (becasue they live on their land), Germans (becasue as you said, Americans are overwhelmingly of such provenance) or maybe someone else? If so, then how and when they totaly change themsleves and lost their roots replacing them by others? How?Quote:

You can began to foolow chinese culture, but it will
not make you chinese ancestry - or maybe will?
Another reason why it is sensless.Quote:

Now, give me my percentages :p
Mixing with later European migrants. The North-American culture is a fusion of several Northwest-European and even Southern European cultures (with the English/Anglo-Saxon still being the main component) that, thanks to the several years spent in a totally different continent, developed his own particularities.Quote:

So what is your problem with English or Germans in this case?Quote:

Not following the culture doesn;t cancel the blood. One can always
start to cultivate some meaningless customs, if it hurts you so much...
It doesn;t work opposite way...
