Croatian - Romanian - Moldovan DNA Connection - My 23andme Results

It's unusual for Dalmatian Croat to get Greece as likely match on 23andme, as well as Romania/Bulgaria. It's possible you have some recent non Croatian Balkan ancestry that you don't know about.
But that's just possible ancestral connection, nothing more. You don't share DNA affinity with Greeks because Dalmatian Croats are very far from Greeks genetically.

knez01 and Bosninensis also got Peloponnese in their 23andme results, it's obviously 23andme failing to filter out some older medieval admixture.

Absolute nonsense and fairy tale fantasies. Not worth of a serious reply.

Yeah? I am open minded I don't know anything lol. Then what is the reason that Dalmatians and Moldavians score so closely together? Maybe SOME Croatians are Vlach originally (like me given my EV13 Haplogroup?)

However Knez has recent south Italian and probably Arbanas admix (his words), while Bosniensis is quarter Gorani. But may be what you say nonetheless.

I've already wrote, Slavic and native admix. Moldovans are most Slavic Romanian speakers, with more than 50% early Slavic ancestry in regions you match with.
We have Illyrian samples from Croatia and they were genetically closest to modern north Italians, south French and Spaniards.

Maybe SOME Croatians are Vlach originally (like me given my EV13 Haplogroup?)

Paternally some are. In general DNA all Croats are part Vlach, but they are primairly Slavic. It's simple really.

Almost everyone is having Peloponnese under "likely" and other random Balkan regions, especially Dalmatians. I'm actually one of the few people who didn't score any.

They also gave me 2% of Ireland/Scotland which is incorrect. As Vbnetkhio said, it's a probably a bad filtering.

My Dalmatian matches don't get any Greece usually. They are Islanders mostly. They just get Croatia and BiH.

How can you even look at your matches countries on 23andme? Do you have to connect to the user? Norm I have seen on various forums/reddit with the most recent update, is for SW/SC Slavs to score many Balkan nations on 23andme (excluding Albania which I never see scored) usually with Greece + Peloponnese at possible or likely match, but only the "highly likely" ones are ancestrally accurate. I think the older updates with the star system were more accurate since people would usually only score a couple of nations.
