The Denmark total is based on the 5 regions from the paper. The Swedish graph is based on a sample taken from Malmo.

Denmark National - 110 samples - 36.36% R-M269



Denmark West - 19 samples - 37% R-M269



Denmark North- 42 samples - 47.2% R-M269

Below you will find graphs for Belarus and Poland; both national graphs have been compiled by combing the data from their respective regions.

Belarus

Belarus National- 196 samples - 6.34% R-M269



Belarus West - 97 samples - 7.3% R-M269



Belarus Northeast - 99 samples - 6% R-M269



Poland

Poland National - 202 samples - 18.35% R-M269



Poland West - 15 samples - 33.3% R-M269
Ignore the title of the graph, it should read Poland West as opposed to Poland South



Poland North - 17 samples - 23.6% R-M269



Poland East - 13 samples - 15.4% R-M269



Poland ?- 42 samples - 21.4% R-M269



Poland South - 22 samples - 22.6% R-M269



Poland Southwest (Wroclaw) - 13 samples - 21.6% R-M269

Regarding tags, R1b is NOT Germanic, only certain subclades of subclades can be possibly attached to any Meta-etnicity/Ethnicty. So far perhaps R-M222, R-U198 and a few others.

R-M222 is Irish. The germanic subclade is U106 since it peaks in germanic counries and P-312/R-S116 is considered the Celtic branch :

"R-S116 shows maximum Y-STR diversity in France and Germany but maximum frequency in Iberia and the British Isles. In the latter region it is represented mainly by R-M529 with the R-M222 subclade being particularly prominent in Ireland but also North England. It would be interesting to see data for Scotland, and I do not doubt that R-M222 would be prominent there as well. R-S116 also shows signs of being a Celtic, or Celtiberian-related lineage."

so what ethnic group would R-M269 be associated with?

R-M269 is too wide to be attached with ethnic groups, however, the more frequent subclades of R-M269, which are only found in Western Europe, are the U106 branch, considered Germanic, and the P312/S16 branch considered proto-Celt

Estonia- 210 samples - 8.7% R-M269



Karelians - 194 samples - 2% R-M269



Komi - 61 samples - 13.1% R-M269



Sammi - 35 samples - 5.7% R-M269



Vepsas - 39 samples - 2.6% R-M269

R-M222 is Irish. The germanic subclade is U106 since it peaks in germanic counries and P-312/R-S116 is considered the Celtic branch :

"R-S116 shows maximum Y-STR diversity in France and Germany but maximum frequency in Iberia and the British Isles.

I would agree R-M222 is Irish, though there are minor frequencies in France, Germany and Sweden; could be the result of recent individual migrations. I would also say that R-S168, another subclade of M529, appears to be Irish. R-M222 has also been found in Scotland, with high frequencies in the West. This could be the result of both the Historic Gaels and modern Irish immigration; most of the Irish in Scotland hail from Ulster and Northern Leinster.
The Subclades of R-P312 (S116) are too widespread for R-P312 to attached to any meta-ethnicity; it probably pre-dates any ethnogenesis of any current European population. R-M529 is found outside of the British Isles, featuring prominently in the R1b make up of France, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden etc. I would say that the other subclades of M529, those defined and undefined, will shed more light on the ethnogenesis matter.
I cannot agree that R-U106 is entirely Germanic, though I would agree that some of its subclades are, e.g. R-U198 and R-L1. Looking at the information present, it could be that a subclade/s of R-U106 is indigenous to the populations of Eastern Europe.
