Most dominant Celtic group?

[Euroball]

The q Celtic culture countries and peoples ie. Gaelic Scots and Irish or the p Celtic Welsh britons cornish etc? By dominant I'm talking overall soft and hard power, self-autonomy, fame among other parts of the world. Merry Christmas

The Scottish created the UK.

Q, Irish and Scots are the most famous Celts

[tipirneni]

More than 100 Million q Celtic people spread over the World in Anglo-American diaspora. The Scot & Irish have a major dominant presence in the Business & Govt of the new world countries Like USA, Canada, Australia etc..

Big number of people at the top have this ancestry. Some have p-Celtic ancestry.

Scots always had disproportionate power and influence in the UK and the Empire, although not particularly Gaelic Scots. It's often said Scots effectively ran the Empire. The Irish are the most culturally dominant group today (St Patricks Day, Irish pubs, Irish music, Irish diaspora etc), and their political influence has been huge. Of course the Kingdom of Scotland itself was a creation of Irish Gaels. Wales has been an appendage of England for around 600 years without much influence and Cornwall for around 1200 years with even less.

Obviously, the Scottish. Not only did Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson layout the main two forms of possible government in the United States (Federalist vs States rights) the Scots also have more political power than the Irish and Cornish via the United Kingdom since Ireland is a small blip on the radar of the EU. The Scottish have their own parliament unlike the Cornish and Welsh too.

1. Scotland
2. Ireland
3. Wales
4. Cornwall

Good post I agree with this.

Also, there have been lots of presidents of the United States with Scottish blood in the past and present. Barack Obama is half Scots-Irish and Donald Trump is half Scottish and half German.

The House Of Hamilton are Scoto-Normans and I1-Z63 like myself so I'll go with the Scots.

n terms of YDNA James Hamilton is assumed to have carried the I-L1237 subclade of the I-Z63 haplogroup

The Hamilton DNA Project compared the Y-DNA of four descendants of Alexander Hamilton, one of the a Founding Fathers of the United States of America. All shared very close STR values, proving beyond reasonable doubt that they shared a same recent patrilineal ancestor.

The men in the tree are all Hamiltons

Jefferson wasn't Scottish, Ireland has more political power than Scotland, being an (theoretically) independent country, and Wales has a devolved Parliament as well.
