    I am from Kazakhstan. I have a mixed heritage with mostly Kazakh and Tatar line. I have green eyes, hooded eyes without epicantic fold. I look Eurasian and I was commonly mistaken for Latin American mestizo person. My European line comes from Mordovia/Komi people who happen to speak Finno-Ugoric language. My Kazakh line comes from Argyn tribe.

      But keep in mind that every time you get your DNA tested for ancestry you will get different results- especially from different companies. All they can do is compare yours to someone elses. If they are similar we assume that your ancestors came from the same area that those other people THINK theirs came from. But there is no way of actually knowing. And of course if we go back far enough our DNA all came from the same group of Africans.

      Sami and Norwegians have more than 90% genetics in common. The Sami language consists of a large portion of unknown origin, between a third and a half. Linguists consider it to be remnants of languages spoken in the Paleo European area. Samis even have genetic markers in common with Berbers from North Africa, common history on the European continent. So no, we Sami are mostly Europeans, just as he said in the video. Our ancestors inhabited Scandinavia as the ice withdraw. Archaeology shows continuation from the oldest findings to nowadays Sami population. The Uralic parts of the language were brought in by immigrants 3-4000 years ago, thousands of years after the forefathers of the Sami inhabited Scandinavia. And btw - Germanic languages also immigrated.

    I'm Finnish and recently did a DNA test that showed I was mostly Northern European, but also 2,4% Japanese :D that is such a specific other ethic group to have in the mix, I do think some Finns have more Asian features compared to other European people
    Update: Wow this got so many replies 🤣 The test gave me more updated results, apparently I'm around 90% Eastern Finnish/Karelian specifically. Makes sense to have a bit of Asian there then since my grandmother's side of family is from the old Karelian region (that is now a part of Russia). It's super interesting to think maybe someone from my family line was from some Siberian ethnic group that lived closer to Asia. I find the culture and history of that region very fascinating!

      That is also why most Native Americans are not "Native Americans" they are from Siberia/Mongolia from the old world. They have DNA from both Europe and Asia. The Americas is new land... everyone came from the old continent- Asia. They also found that not everyone has African DNA, but everyone has at least a small percentage of Asian DNA. I think this will one day clearly point out that humanity came from somewhere within the Asia continent, and not from Africa. They already agreed that "Lucy" is a gorilla that fell from a tree, and not actually part of the human tree. We have more evidence of ancient human ancestry coming from Asia and the Middle East than from Africa. Its incredible.

    Hi, Mongol here, we have a lot of Mongolic peoples in Siberia as well. You forgot to mention the largest Siberian ethnic group is of in fact Mongolic origin. Also the Altaic language theory which includes the Tungusic, Mongolic, and Turkic languages may give some clues as well. We should also be included within the central Asian gene pool because we share a haplogroup with the Kazakhs and Kyrgyz peoples, and we are much more culturally similar to Central Asia than East, so we must assume we have a central Asian origin rather than East.

      I am not an expert but perhaps that part of the DNA has it's origin in a much older root race and migrated to all these areas. Another possibility is that some genetic properties appear independently from each other around the world. For example: blond hair does exist among the Australian aboriginals, but this is not related to other ethnic groups with blond hair.

Plus basically all of them got a dark brown eyes and the dark black hairs. This is bacause until 60's, they lived mostly in isolated willages in rural slovakia. But than the socialist goverment of Chechoslovakia started this politics of so called "regulated spreading", which meant forced moving out of these willages into underpopulated regions of bohemia and moravia, in an attempt to assimilate these people into the main population. Which didn't worked very well, and now they regularily live in kind of ghettos in or near big towns. Mixed marriages aren't very common, since gypsy is still seen as synonimous to burglar, bagger, scamer, pickpocket by a majority of people. Although not by any law, practically they are segregated.

Traditional communities do not mix outside blood. The exceptions only confirm it.

      Please refrain from using the word "autistic" if you wanna sound believable. I have autism 1, and I can assure you, people with autism aren't stupid at all. In fact, they are often better researchers than most people, as they can go way into a certain subject. They are also usually more honest than most people. We might be people who have more or less a hard time adapting to changes, but then again.. NTs (the so called "normal" people) have taken decades upon decades to even accept us as who we are, but many still have problems accepting us because of some of our problems. Even though they have weird problems as well. Ironic. We are all still human after all and we all need each other to make things work.

    Keep in mind in genetic drift. Finns and Saami have what’s typically known as “oriental” traits while their genetics is almost indistinguishable from Germanic speaking Scandinavians. This is due to the intermixing of the Ugric peoples with the Scandinavians in that region for thousands of years to the point where the genetic code predominantly contains Germanic heritage due to the other group (Ugric) being absorbed by the larger more dominate population (Germanic) while the culture and language remained dominant in regions like Finland and northern Norway. Also this genetic drift did leave a fingerprint on the genetics of all Scandinavians which is why DNA can be distinguished between Norwegians and Swedes from groups like Germans and Anglos.

    It may not be related to Ainu, but in Tohoku, Japanese people with blonde hair and blue eyes are suddenly born. It's a very low probability, but It ’s really strange.

    The video contains a lot of mistakes. Uralic people belong to the West Siberian.
    People of the Western Siberian region are descendants of the Ancient North Eurasian People. The Ancient North Eurasian were Caucasoid and originated in western Asia.
    They were in contact with the Paleolithic Siberian people who are Mongoloid. Uralic speakers have never been Mongoloid. The Nganasan and Nenets are Samoyedized descendants of Paleosiberian and Tungusic tribes.
    Funfact: The earliest known individual with a genetic mutation associated with blonde hair in modern Europeans is an Ancient North Eurasian female dated to around 16000 BCE from the Afontova Gora 3 site in Siberia. That's why most Finns are blond-haired.

I saw the same astonishing beauty, while living, going to school, and working in Germany: Most of the population seemed to possess a beauty, and stature, exclusive to them.

    Hi Masaman. This is a very informative video.

    I'm curious if the unique physical appearance of the Sami could be due to this historic blending of two distinct peoples.

This is because the nomads, Huns, and Mongols traveled from North China/Mongolia region to North, East, and Central Europe and intermixed with them. Huns conquered most of Europe, Mongols conquered to Central Europe.

    There is also surprisingly big difference between Western Finns dna and Eastern Finns dna in Finland. "There are noteworthy autosomal and uniparental differences between Eastern Finns and Western Finns. Eastern Finns have more (5-10%) of a pull in the direction of North Asia than Western Finns (3-4%) do, and their haplogroup distributions are different." Makes sense that Western Finns living by the sea have more "foreign" influnce to their genes than mostly inland Eastern Finns.

      Huns and any central asians who invaded Europe are always smaller in numbers than the more settled natives.

So yeah, negligible genes that eventually got outplaced. Same with Turkey "Turks", who are mostly Greeks and a bit of Semites and Slavs of slave ancestry.

It´s probably very, very small features. I sometimes get to hear that I look Pakistani, or Iranian, as well as Sami. One brother has Mexican similarities and one has Chinese ones. The biggest contradictions I guess are our face and hair colours, or lack thereof. It´s way more visible with makeup defining the eyes, for instance. I find it very exiting to learn more about these things.

    Interesting, but be careful using appearance as a classifying tool. Take the epicanthic folds: we associate elongated eye shapes with East Asia, but they are a feature of some of the Welsh, seen in Scandinavian countries and are seen in those who owe their near ancestry to the isolated villages in Lancashire and Derbyshire in the UK ( I went to school with some of them). At a guess, I would say that it's a feature that crops up in populations that are fairly isolated and is therefore not useful. Ditto eye colour: albenism to varying degrees appears in various isolated communities.

      3 definitely, southeast Asia, Madagascar and the Polynesian episode. But for me it is very interesting to make a sole Austronesian video, because the Austronesian language family is the second largest language family (by number of languages), spoken by about 400 million people. And of course the most interesting part is the Austronesian migration by boat that span across two oceans.

    Thanks for the great video! I was born in Croatia (the northern top) but look a bit different and thought I could fit in more with Sami people after seeing pics when I was a kid. The only facts I got from family is that dad's dad family came from Hungary, that my mom carries a "yellow pigment" (found during some hospital examinations) and that her dad had a Germanic surname. So I did a DNA test and got: 36% Northwestern Europe (Celtic and Scandinavian) - makes absolutely no sense, 32% Other European (mostly Hungarian, also Austrian and Slovenian), 26% East European (Ukrainian, Slovakian) - also unexpected, 6% Asian (mostly Mongolian). So yeah, I have questions, but this video put some things in place :D

    The so called ‘Russians’ are actually Uralic too. They where colonised by the Rus', adopted their language, later conquered them, and took their name from them,
    but they still genetically remained mostly Uralic.
    They are an amalgamation of the merya, muroma, meshora, and many others.
    The real Rus' where forced to adapt and change their name to Ukrainians in order to avoid confusion with their former subjects, turned conquerors.

    An Asian family was recently horrified to have DNA results suggesting they had a small percentage of a genetic correlation with a population in Finland. The mother of the family could track records of the family going back over 1,000 years. This reminds me also of a story
    told to me of a tribe in the States, pre-Columbus who pointed out one of the tribal members was called something like "Hairy Man," because he had a lot of body hair, which was exceptional for any First Nation peoples at that time. Possible left over from earlier exposure to Vikings? Genetic diversity is a survival mechanism that allows humans under the worse conditions to have a chance at existence, (say... First Nation exposure to European smallpox) even if it is 0.0001 percent in the background population that might only leave 1% of a group alive after an epidemic or other calamity.
    My mom for example, had Type A blood type, but not one of her children or grandchildren do. Perhaps a dozen or so generations from now another Type A offspring might be born due to two recessive traits matching up.
    With all of the pathogenic challenges, not to mention planetary challenges, humans better pray there is enough diversity, along with scientific breakthroughs for what ahead.

    I love this channel! One thing I've always wondered about (and maybe you've already done a segment on this) is how language and place names change so abruptly at a country's borderline. I'm thinking especially of the borders of Korea and Russia, where the languages don't even appear to be related in any way. Or is it that the official languages and place names change, but the spoken languages meld together more gradually?

    I grew up in Minnesota, where many people display a Scandinavian accent, resembling Swedes, Polish, Finnish, and so Scandinavian sounding. I understand that this is explained by observing the geographical similarities between these places. Scandinavians came and settled in the places that reminded them of their homes back east! Anishinaabe (Ojibway Native American -in central Northern America) has made a huge comeback. Language is now much more abundant, cultural practices have been much more visible presently.
