Most unmixed Slavs?

Those are fantasies. Byzantine sources say native population was greatly reduced by warfare and diesease, but it certanly did not dissapear.

Yep, Justinian's plague depopulated the Balkans, leaving a vacuum for the Slavs.

False. He considers western Russians very similar to Belarusians. And yes, he is very objective. I don't care for his political opinions.

Lol, the guy literally claimed one needs to be 55-60% East European on Dodecad V3 in order to be "genetically Belarusian", while as a matter of fact even Latvians get only about 40% on that calculator. My father is 35% for example. No one is 55%, that calculator is weird and cannot be taken seriously in the first place.

He probably scores such inflated amount because his sample was taken as reference for that calculator, or is very close to that. I agree with you on that.

No darling, I am not genetically similar to Moldovans. I just have some North Caucasus admixture, that artifically pulls me close to Moldavia.

that north caucasus admixture u also got it from your romanian side. i also score around 10-11% on gedmatch calculators.

Northern half of the Balkans was sparsely populated until late 18th century.
There was always space for more people.

So who repopulated Romania and where did they come from.
I know I heard Vlachs came from Macedonia but I actually think most of Romania was repopulated by Carpathian Highlanders who came down.
