As for Efim, he is a well known troll around, but you?

I'll message you, so as to not ruin this thread.

You are correct, Portuguese Princess, Albanians are muslims!

Neighbor Joining Tree (Euclidean distance), based on Dodecad v2 K=12 ADMIXTURE component values for populations:

The 12 components are:
West_Asian
East_European
West_European
East_Asian
Mediterranean
Northwest_African
North_Eurasian
Arabian
Inner_Asian
Sub_Saharan
East_African
South_Indian

Everything makes sense to me except;

1) Why the Spanish and Portuguese look closer to Germans than the French?
2) Why S. Italians/Sicilians are isolated?
3) Why Siberians and SE Asians and that group look so close to Ethiopians?

Unless I'm reading it wrong.

The spaniards have 0.9% Arabian, which is less than that of British Isles, Germans, French, American-Whites, Dutch, Balkans, Scandinavians, etc. But we are supposed to be half arabs right ?

Oh I know! Interestingly enough we all appear quite close to Germans at least on that chart. ;)

% of Arabian in Scandinavians (1.5%) is higher than Spaniards (0.9%). :laugh:

Can someone shed some light on what Mediterranean is supposed to mean genetics-wise? :coffee:

Hi cmariexo. This is not an actual phylogeny. Just a quick and simple way to display how populations relate to one another based on their component percentages. Serves as a rough guide. That is all.

After removing some of the African and Asian populations:
