Moldovan/Romanian GEDmatch Resuts

[Pribislav]

No problem Pribi, identity is most important thing. But we need to realise dinaric Slavs have common origins in many cases.
I don't like this fact, but it's a fact and I came to realize this in last few months.

Before I didn't think it was the case. But let's keep this thread ontopic, which is Moldovans.

If you want you can open thread about history of ethnic/religious relations, conversion and so on in Dinaric region... I agree, this thread is for Moldavian genetic.

This thread is being devoured by the great Yugoslav Autosomal war.

Also I agree that Serbs look different than Romanians on averge - there is a strong overlap but as a group they look different. Taller with longer DInarid faces which are not common in Moldova. I don't agree that they are lighter on average.

Overall it seems that Moldova is like this:

South - Gagauzia = Montenegro like

Central - Montenegro-Serbia mix like

North - Serbia like, bordering on Croatian sometimes

All of this with an added bonus of Asian/Siberian input.

Nice.

Sorry for this off topic.

I like both Moldavian and Romanian people very much. I just wondered if that Gedmatch mixed oracle result of me being +90% Moldavian correct.
And indeed it is. We overlap by autosomal genetics a lot.

I don't understand why Ion has problem with Serbian average value. I respect all his analisis about Moldavian and Romanian populations.

Green - Central and North areas.
Red - South.

The most southest person on this map is still unknown, if he is Moldavian, or is something else.

Gura-Galbenei guy is from Centre though.

Is part of the South, Cimișlia district.

Yeah, but 30km from Chisinau. In my K13 averages he's counted in Centre.

[Leto]

What percent of the population live in the North, Center and South of the Republic respectively? I guess Chisinau is mixed like any other capital city.

I just questioned the authenticity of those averages, considering all the differing signals that I was getting from commercial tests and academic samples.

I have every right in the world to critique and to have an opinion.

You guys just took it very defensively. At some point even tried to bring phenotypes in as a justification for that, which is absolutely laughable.
People in R. Moldova are at least 10 times lighter on average and some score very similarly with the Serbs.

Is mixed, exist people from every corner of the country and every corner of Soviet Union.
