    I can't believe Iberians received two times more votes than Belgians and more than three times in the case of the Dutch

    The genetics don't follow this at all. There are a significant number of darker types in Wales, to the extent that other countries in the UK associate this type as the 'Welsh type' as it isnt often seen elsewhere in the UK, ie Kelly Jones, Gavin Henson etc, but it still only accounts for 15% of the pop in Wales.

    Most Welsh are along the Atlanto Brunn and you get a lot of brunns, red hair is common, along with KN types, N atlantids and some remnants of Norman/AS settlement, particularly in places like South Pembrokeshire (Pembroke was deliberately settled as an English colony town, protected by the castle, as was Caernarvon and elsewhere. More castles in Wales per sqm than anywhere else in Europe, and they usually weren't garrisoned by Welsh people.

    There was also a whole Roman Legion based at Caerleon, SE Wales, for 400 yrs, so they may be more Roman genetics remnants in Wales, however small, than elsewhere in Britain

    What would you say is the reason for the apparent higher frecuency of "dark brits" types in Wales? because I doubt it's because of the Romans.

    For me the Welsh do not resemble the Dutch, the Belgians a little better, my primary option would be Ireland followed by England and France and then Iberia and Belgium.

    Come on, don’t listen to the OP and his bunch of buffoons who love to make up garbage. The Welsh are not any particularly Western European population. They are obviously lighter - haired than any Mediterranean population. All in all, the Welsh are closest to the other British populations. Although as with every population, there are differences here and there.

    So you're saying these people look closer to Iberians than the Dutch?

    Yes, but not because of the hair color and the eyes, but because the Dutch give me another vibe, anyway the Welsh don't seem very Iberian either, I already said that they seem more Irish and English than Iberian and Dutch.

    They don't overlap with anyone. It's still legal to shoot a Welshman after midnight in Chester because they're so easy to identify (and irritating).
