That way Hamburg and Lübeck were able to control nearly all traffic between Russia, Western and Central Europe.

    Thus it can be stated that Germany and Scandinavia arose as distinct culture domeins in opposition to each other.

    Germanic not Scandinavian, certainly more exposed to other influences, at least until certain Scandinavian countries decided to become colonies of the middle east.

    Germany is not much better in that sense I am afraid. Questioning the details of the supposed holocaust could get you thrown in jail.

    Our numbers are actually shrinking in the last few years and at least Sweden has more than we do percentage wise.

    And while the Turks are scum they are more famous for killing their own daughters who they deem too westernised than raping European woman.

    I wouldn't say that, to be honest. Germany and Scandinavia became Germanic through cultural diffusion of Indo-Europeans. There was a time when much of southern Germany was Celtic, for example. I'd say in many ways these Germans originated along the same lines of their neighboring French than North Sea bordering ethnic groups/Scandinavians. It mostly depends on where in Germany you're speaking.

    I was referring to Northern Germany. The craddle of the Germanic people is said to be modern day Denmark, Southern Sweden and Northern Germany then those people migrated South further into Germany, North further into Sweden and over into Norway and later on West over into England.

    Oh really?
    And how come R1B-S21 is more present in South Germany than in North Germany?
    R1B-S21 is typical for germans.
    I guess you did not noticed either that R1B-S21 is very closed to R1B-L21 which is typical for celts.
    And you also did not noticed that in german language is a very weird resemblance to old latin (latins are typical R1B-S116 which is tens of thousands of years closer to R1B-S21 than I1 typical for Norway,Denmark and Sweden) - the presence of verb to the end of sentence.
    You do not find such a thing in norwegian/swedish/icelandic/dane languages.
    Germans and celts are closed populations,look at admixture also,they both have a decent percentage of med admixture.
    Thing is old germans got plenty of balto-urals admixture from old prussians and after mixing with these formed current population of Germany.
    So I think is rather people from England who are more closed to old germans,genetically ,than current day people from Germany.
    I saw saying that Denmark and Sweden are obvious behind Germany as culture,industriousness economic development and so on.
    Norway have a good situation,but they are buffed by small population in a huge country - Norway is larger than Germany as surface but have only 5 millions inhabitants and plenty of natural resources.
    Germany have more 80 million people and they are humilated on daily bases by unhuman jews so they are not at maximum and still are owning every other nation by far.

    No, Germany is not the same in anything these days, we share some cultural and linguistically similarities, but thats about it, we are not the same people and have never been so, although the city of Bergen and various other locations around Norway have had allot of German immigration, which accounts for my own German ancestry, but that does not really make us Germans overall, just gives us a hint of German in some of our DNA make-up..
