I know you're being sarcastic but if the map is correct then English sperm is mostly Germanic or to put it "un-metaethnically" North Sea region derived via migrants

percentage in Portugal and Galicia makes sense if we go by history as well.

[Bobby Martnen]

I'd love to raise those percentages

But English aren't Anglo Saxons.

English are between 25-40% Anglo-Saxon according to a study, with the average around 1/3 on an autosomal level. If the y-dna is about 50-60% then this makes sense, assuming none of the mtdna is Germanic. This is lower, both in y-dna and autosomally, in England's north, west, and southern extremities.

As we also see, the eastern coast of Ireland is about 30-40% Germanic by y-dna, likely due to Vikings or indirectly Anglo-Saxon from English settlers there. Most of the rest of Ireland is 10-20%, likely for similar reasons, with the far northwest around Donegal and the far southwest in Munster such as Limerick, Kerry, Cork, and Clare being 5-10% because these regions did not mix much with non-Irish people.

That's impossible. The Anglo Saxons brought families when they came over, wifeys and whatnot. I'm not sure if mtDNA is even suitable to be called this or that different Indo European language group. It doesn't mutate nearly as often as yDNA does.



According to the study quoted here, The East Englishmen are 38% and even the Welsh are 30%.

BTW, they're all women. (And the majority are not mixed with native Brit)

The two Iron Age samples from Hinxton are male, all other samples are female, based on Y chromosome coverage and consistent with the archaeology....



...There are striking differences in the sharing patterns of the samples, illustrated by the ratio of the number of rare alleles shared with Dutch individuals to the number shared with Spanish individuals (Fig. 2a). The middle Anglo-Saxon samples from Hinxton (HS1, HS2 and HS3) share relatively more rare variants with modern Dutch than the Iron Age samples from Hinxton (HI1 and HI2) and Linton (L). The early Anglo-Saxon samples from Oakington are more diverse with O1 and O2 being closer to the middle Anglo-Saxon samples, O4 exhibiting the same pattern as the Iron Age samples, and O3 showing an intermediate level of allele sharing, suggesting mixed ancestry. The differences between the samples are highest in low-frequency alleles and decrease with increasing allele frequency. This is consistent with mutations of lower frequency on average being younger, reflecting more recent distinct ancestry, compared with higher frequency mutations reflecting older shared ancestry.

ancient Anglo-Saxon from Norton, England. Y-dna I1. MtDna H1a. Germanic as fuck.

Please hush! If you don’t know anything.
