I am German through and through, have grey-green eyes and have never had the plague. And I don't care at all about my genes. I just want my culture - created by countless German/Germanic ancestors - to be preserved and appreciated.
You can only preserved your culture by having children and passing that on, but in German the “white” Germans don’t want to procreate so your culture will die out. The migrants and Turks will not preserve your culture because they have their own.
@@dusansuhajda6273 in this video it discusses the genetic mutation that gave people immunity. That immunity was more prominent in the area you mentioned. More immunity = less plague. The people without immunity, died. You can't make children if you're dead. So if you exist today, your ancestors survived the plague and probably had that immunity. Unless they lived under a rock and didn't have contact with other humans. Which would be an outlier.

My Great Grandfather came to America from Germany. We were discussing getting sick in 2020 at Thanksgiving and noticed none of my family ever gets sick. I diagnose and treat people every day and looking back, I’ve never had the flu or any febrile illness. During Covid I test positive for COVID several times past 4 years but have never had the first symptom. My wife has pointed this out many times and apparently my family have all said they’ve never been sick. Definitely a genetic link going on here.
I'm Brazilian from Minas Gerais state, my boyfriend and I did a DNA test and it shows both of us have the CCR5 mutation resistant to HIV and other diseases. My family and his family are direct descendents from the Suebi, a south Sweden/Germanic tribe that mixed with the Portuguese Celts. 10% of the Swedes have this CCR5 mutation, this DNA follow the modern Portuguese people to Brazil, giving us this wonderful DNA. My boyfriend has bright blue eyes and I have light hair. We are from Patos de Minas.
How come a tiny population in Portugal, perhaps a million or so, could spread their dominance from Bazil to Japan in its hay day?. May be they trusted in God that gave them leaders like Prince Henry who had the foresight to establish naval school for sailors, etc. They came to where I text this, too. But I do not have their stuff; only a title to decorate the name.
Thank you for watching it and the kind words! ☺️ In these videos, we also try to cover not only the genetic lineage but also the physical traits they influenced, such as skin and eye color, as well as the technological innovations they brought and their cultural origins. all these elements paint a fuller picture of our heritage
I'm American but my ancestry on my fathers side was a mix of Prussian and German. Blonde hair and Blue eyes and fair skin. I love learning about my ancient ancestors.
If your Prussian ancestors are from the preWWII area roughly encompassed by the former East Prussia, then you likely have Baltic Old Prussian ancestry. The Baltic Old Prussians indigenous to this area were absorbed by mostly Germans, and in my case being of Mazuren ancestry, mixed with Mazovian Poles. If your family is from a different area of the former Prussian empire, you aren't Old Prussian, but likely a different German ethnicity, or something other, depending upon the region.
@Lee-jh6cr My ancestor came over in 1849. I don't know exactly where in Prussia he came come from that was never put in his paperwork. They listed him as a Russian but he was Prussian by birth. I do know his family name is now in Germany and there are ppl with that name still there.
Yes, what is Prussian? Sorry if this is a dumb question to some, but I know my family is Prussian. What does this mean? Is it an ethnicity, or just that is what Germany was called back then? I don't know what it means to be Prussian.
@@elieshasteffanson5758Prussia was for a long time one of the most powerfull german subnations from 1701 to 1945. Its area reached from todays baltic regions into central of todays germany. The native Prussians where i think a mixed baltic/slavic/norse tribe living around todays Kaliningrad until the german Teutonic Order came 1230 invited by a polish duke to christianitize the pagan tribes of the Region by force. Alongside the violent crusade the german teutonic order people settled there and mixed culture with them, so they mainly spoke german. They gained much influence until in 1410 they lost in Tannenberg against Polish-Lithuanian forces. The orderlands existed until 1525 prussia became a duchy as a fief of Poland. In 1701 they became an independent Kingdom wich over the years got more and more powerfull. The King of Prussia Wilhelm I. became Kaiser of the united german Nations or German Reich in 1871. After WW1 and WW2 most of the Prussian lands where given to Poland and Germans there where driven out of their homeland. They moved mostly to todays germany but also north and south america. That was the keep short version history of Prussia mostly from my mind. Sorry for the long Text 😅 Greetings from Thuringia/Germany. My great grandfather is also from east Prussia.
There is very little difference between Slavs & Germans. Linguistically, both languages are indo-european & ethnically, they are very close too as the various German and Slavic tribes have intermixed significantly over a very long history. Both tribes will probably hate me saying this because most of that history seems to involve conflict between them but in reality you can’t put a rizla paper between them. Thank goodness for the very rich diversity of European people! I just wish they could stop fighting each other.
It’s true. I come from Silesia - the forgotten land and forgotten ethnic group, that came into existence at the beginning of 13 th century, when Saxonians, Bavarians, Turingians, and some Dutch, were invited to Silesia by the Silesian princes - who were Moravians. Since then Silesians became a good mix of Germanic peoples and the Moravians (current Chechs’). Silesia was mixing very well for all these centuries - I can see it in my family tree - all the names are either Germanic or Moravian. The problem started when The concept of ‘nationality’ came into existence, with the rise of Prussia and later fascism. Silesians - at the beginning being under Moravian rule, then Bohemian or Austro-Hungarian, and then Prussian. The last one did not end up well - for us Silesians because - being automatically the ‘new’ Germans, we were part of the WW2 madness, and as a punishment we were ethnically cleansed after WW2, well into 60s and even now - in some indirect way. Silesia became Polish and the identity crisis began. Silesians were not allowed to obtain an education, were tortured, and forced to change their names. Even myself born in the 80’s, I’ve experienced discrimination from my early childhood well into my adulthood. Generations of us paid for what the Nazis did. There is an identity dissonance because we will be never accepted as real Poles, nor in Germany as real Germans. We look Slavic because we lived in Silesia for over 700 years. Knowing one's ethnic background is very important, if people would understand how mixed we are, maybe there would no more be such stupidities, like nationalism and fascism.
You can expand your thoughts to all of Central Europe - it is a cross road of Celts, Germanic and Slavic tribes. Not to forget the Balts (which player a huge genetical role in this region) and tribes from the Balkans.
@@adloziThank you for telling us that important information. Years ago on the TV show Star Trek there was an episode where the captain and crew were caught in the middle of a civil war based on race which was inscrutable to anyone but the combatants. Both sides looked the same, half black and half white. As it turned out, the intolerance stemmed from the fact that one side of the warring aliens was white on the left and black on right side and the other was white on the right, etc. Such picayune differences to make a cause for.
Poles are primarily Arian R1a haplo in contrast to german celtic later group R1b. The R1b migrated to Europe through Anatolia, but Slavonic tribes moved north of the Black Sea and arrived in the Northern European plains earlier than celts.
I just returned from Bavaria. I was able to visit the small village (Schmalzgrub) where my grandfather was from. Church records show my Bavarian ancestors have lived in that small area back to 1600, probably longer.
Me too!! I have all the paperwork, history writeups, the ship boarding list, and documents all the way up to now, present day. My families came in sperts from both sides, but the first arrival was in 1708. Still rattled by the French after the 30 yrs war. The war ended upper middle 1600s, but every time they would rebuild, the French would burn the homes and crops back down. These were Catholics vs. Protestant wars. The French were EVIL, EVIL!
@Magoover1 They saw the same Protestant Catholic wars my ancestors saw then. These were just continuance of the 30 years wars. Crazy how many eastern Caucasian Americans roots from there! We basically have a mix of everything. I even have Western Asia, and North African dna. This is the Anatolian/Roman/Greek dna. As settlers in Palatine, and Bavaria were largely from Romans... hence Palatine Hill, Rome.
Ich komme aus Thüringen und meine Familie hat sich in den letzten 400 Jahren ca. 30 km bewegt. Ich sag's mal so: Da habe ich mit meiner leichten Schwerhörigkeit noch Glück gehabt. ;-) Ich züchte privat Hühner und kenne die Auswirkungen von zu naher Verwandtschaft. Ich habe mich dafür entschieden, den Vater meines Kindes NICHT aus dem Umland zu wählen. 🙂
I live in North Dakota and am a German from Russia and met cousins from Argentina last year at the Germans From Russia annual gathering. Crazy. My grandmother's cousins who only spoke Spanish but we all have the same recipes. 😮
I'm from Argentina (I've been living in South Florida for the last 11 years) and I know my family were Volga Germans. I'd love to attend one of the Germans from Russia annual gatherings. When and where are they held? Thanks galore for bringing a smile to my Saturday morning with your comments about the shared recipies (no matter the distance or language involved). 😊
My Dad's family in Montana are mostly Volga Germans, my Grandma being the only one in her family born in the U.S. I believe they arrived here in the late 1920's/early 1930's.
Europe has all the diversity it needs. We are a unique race, not better or worse, and I'm tired to have to justify the fact that I want Europe to be EUROPEAN.
African to be Africans, native from the Americas to be American, Asiatics to be asiatics but, the europeans have emigrated to the others continents, for europeans to be just for Europe it's not fair with people of another continents.
@@andalwisye No. This piece tried to pain an image that Europe has no native and that we are all migrants. They even alluded to the now disproven out of Africa theory. This is factually incorrect. I shouldn't have to morally justify the continuation of my people. No race should.
I'm American, but both my parents are pure blood German. My eyes are dark green now, but when I was a child, everywhere I went, people commented on how bright blue my eyes were. I found a study that not all people, but some people have melanin in their eyes. I have always been a person that spends a lot of time outdoors. I just thought it might be interesting to someone, that your eyes can change color, 🤔🙂
the biggest enemy is your friend. your blood. and your nation. your parents. your roots. your history- your mind your self. your god. your goals are your weaknes. your family. your chids. your life to take is easy like eating bread with butter and drinking coffee. so what is the biggest problem in this world. the fear. the fear that is bigger than a nuclear bomb. but the real problems behind the fear a real. the corona virus. the world war. the genocide. the holocaust. and the bombs. are real. the end of the world. is more nearly than we like to believe it. we dont like to believe the bad and sad storys. of forsaken and suffering. and Lost People ind prisons. and unfairness in this world. people who eat theire childs for might and power. drink theire blood for happyness. and kill each other. like old historys. this old storys can be a present in the mind. but they could destroy us. in fear. because theie is no fairness. or something to learn. just what is wrong. not what is right. so more than the half of the wisdome in this world is more to learn and teach what is wrong than what is right. but there are just some little informations that tells what is right. so they most people dont believe in free speach. or a free mind. or a free world. they believe in overpopulation. and the end of world. like its written in the bible. because thats what war is bringing death. thats what the truth is mostly bringing the sword. the war. and not the peace. the peace is coming after war. with death. like the "peacemaker". so they said. not the trueth have opend the world for freedome. but the war. but nobody wanna tell this story. they said it was the good versus evil. and the holy spirit. and the will of God.
I'm German as well but living in America. My eyes go from a hazel color to light blue and change depending on my mood. The lighter they are the happier I am and the darker the eyes the more upset I am. Anyone that knows that can always tell my mood and I can't hide it, the eyes don't lie 😂
I am half German from my mother and half Czech from my father. Born in Chicago in 1963, I learned to speak German as my first language because it was spoken by both parents at home. My dad could speak fluent German because of the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia in the 1940s.
I've always loved the German language. I think there are cultural memories held within the DNA. I am German, Slovakian, with a smidge of Native American on my mother's side. But I've always been drawn to the German language.
The Roman Empire tried to conquer Germania and failed. Thanks to Arminius , the German boy who was taken from his family in 8 B.C. and raised in Rome. He became a general, and learned all of Rome’s battle tactics and weaponry. He returned home, to join his German brethren, to marry the princess Thusnelda, and led the Germans to victory.
@@notstandingwithukraine9478 That's true, but most people don't know it. The Germans have been separated from their roots, on purpose. Greetings from Germany to the people from all over the world, each people has its own strengths, remember your roots ❤
It's wonderful to see such pride in one’s heritage and the desire to preserve and appreciate cultural identity. Your connection to your German/Germanic roots and the aspects of your culture shaped by generations is truly valuable. Celebrating and recognizing our unique histories helps keep the spirit of those traditions alive for future generations!
Amazing video, I like to learn more about the facts regarding the genetic composition of Germany and Europe. Good work, congratulations I love your channel 🖤❤💛
No worries, in the USA , Argentina, and other places are enough Germans. I guess the Native Americans also wanted to preserve their heritage and culture
Very interesting video - thank you! I am from Germany, but live in the U.S. My last name is Amrhein, but I am from the Main River. This gets a chuckle when I mention it to other Germans.
Historically, it is believed that families with this surname may have been involved in various local professions and trades, which could include farming, craftsmanship, and even physical activities like wrestling, especially in rural and mountainous areas like the Spessart region
Thank you so much - you answered so many question with this video. My DNA is a mix of everything 😊 I learned that I thought in too short terms - I really enjoyed this. ❤
I thought my heritage was German alongside many other nationalities but, after ancestral research I have discovered that both of my parents are from Hebrew roots and American Indian. This explains the many nations. I encourage everyone to trace your heritage as far back into ancient history as possible because you may realize that you are from a traveling nation.
I loved this breakdown. The high percentage of Slavic genetics in East Germany isn’t because of Poland though. It’s because of the millions of East Prussians and West Prussians being ethnically cleansed and forced to abandon their country who fled West and settled in the first safe German Empire provinces they could reach. So-called modern Poland hasn’t even existed for 100 years yet. This fact should be added and corrected.
Thanks for this, it helped to explain how my father’s Bavarian family has some Celtic elements in their genes. We used to joke about a leprechaun in the woodpile. Grandma was not amused!
I also carry the CCR5 gene. I nave green eyes.....2%of the population has this color eye. Most members of my family have prematurely white hair. Not gray but white. Both sets of my grand parents immigrated to the United States after WW1. My mother was the only survivor of polio out of 21 children in her hometown. She walked away...didnt cripple her. My maternal line doesn't have any history of dementia or alzheimers. I wish I could do more research, but most records were lost during WW2. Both sets of my grand parents were from Dresden. Allied forces fire bombed the city during WW2 and the records I need were incinerated or lost to time.
@@josefsterling5462 What are you insinuating? Don’t be coy, do tell! It almost sounds as if you’re trying to imply that Dresden was not after all firebombed because it was an industrial munitions-production heartland vital to the German war effort…but because dusty old parish records. But that would be laughably, childishly absurd, wouldn’t it?
@@eh1702 dusty old parish records contain important information but obviously ur too wrapped up in surface matters to do any kind of serious digging......🤦🏻♂️
This video is very beautiful. What I know is that the majority of the white race traces its origins back to the Caucasus, including the Germans and even the Scandinavians, with the exception of the Finns, who are of Ural origin. The Caucasians also ruled Anatolia in the distant past for very long time.
Some 2 years ago, the tribes of the traffic-lighters began their great journey through all regions of what is now Germany and they have truly transformed the entire region. We need some of the Celtic and Norseman genes to activate and take care of them.
He talks about the German political and intellectual left. We currently have a government red/yellow/green parties. Hence traffic light, Ruined the country. We Germans think, Germany is about to collapse. The facade is somewhat intact still, but the state is going to collapse, soon.
@@ventilator2999 this is nuts and ignorant, as you don't understand, that others don't understand your ref to German govermnent coalition- labeled as Ampel aka traffic light cause of their colors... what noboday outside of German understands neither!
You have forgotten the genetic heritage of the Neandertal-hominides. Each European has up to 2% of genes from the ancient Neandertals in his genome. Probably also for the blonde hair and bright skin. also the resistance of cold infections might be derived from it.
You have missed the most important component of German heritage, the germanics. Yes the east has strong Slavic influences and the South Keltic, the dominant trait is germanic though that is present in Scandinavia as well. I have not heard you mention the Saxons, schwabian and many others.
No, they were not missing. Clear to see in all tables with percentages. What is a bit misleading is that one could get the impression of genetically homogeneous tribes that migrated and then mixed afterwards. But that mixing went on all along. The genetic differences between Germanic tribes and Slavic tribes are negligible. Same goes for Celtic or northern groups. Genetic migration research is about traces in genomes not about complete differences. Furthermore the terms that lable these groups need closer inspection themselves, for example the regional definition from 2000 years ago of what is Celtic and what is Germanic was more or less made up by the Romans who just defined the River Rhine to be the border between these groups. But from cultural, linguistic or genetic perspectives this makes not much sense considering the people that lived on both sides of the Rhine in those days. One thing that becomes more and more evident by genetic research is that differences between groups are being exaggerated always and everywhere. They are often retro projections into history serving ideological needs of the present. Don't get me wrong, there are differences but their scale is often hugely overstated. Last but not least there is no historical focal point of a group's unique origin. Whoever defined (the name of) a group and whenever that was done this group had already gone back to a complex past of interchanged genomes, migration as well as cultural and linguistic mixing.
@@hagenkleemann7309 some of your interpretations vs what you show isn't correct. You say that Germany is a mix of genetics. True, but the cultural development isn't a necessary part of the cultural part. Same as some of your pictures vs the outcome. Trier and the Roman portion isnt close to the Rhein river. Language ...German is the base of a lot of other languages.
Bavarian here on my mother's side. I grew up in Upper Bavaria, and my father's side is Transylvanian German with a strong Turkish influence. Although I'm light skinned, I don't get easily sunburned, and my eyes seem to change color from blue to green, gray, and even slight hazel, depending on my upper garment. I got COVID a few times, but my only symptom was being tired in the afternoon for a good weak. I hardly ever get sick although I'm nearly 70, a small male person, 5'6" and 137 lbs with a big head, nearly a leprechaun.

My maternal grandmother was German. There was quite an influence on my mother of certain German habits. Like cleaning, neatness, creativity, home healthcare, etc. My mother was blonde with green eyes. I and two of my siblings are blonde. Two have blue eyes while I have grey eyes. My brother told me our German ancestors came from northern Germany. I had not known that the celts were in the European/German region. They are very perceptive with strange celebrations. I am a sensitive person, being that I can feel unseen things. In my mind are impressions. Is this from celtic roots? I've been trying to figure out where this comes from as my paternal aunt & paternal grandmother were this way. One of the greatest examples is when I walked over to the landline phone that had not rung. I picked up the receiver. I said, "Hi grandma!"(paternal grandma) She did not have the habit of calling consistently on the same day & time.
I need to be tested. My Dad was mostly Scottish but also a smidge of German. His side of the family were healthier than the norm. My Dad even had polio when he was young and blew the doctors away when he was able to leave the hospital in only a few months never being in the “iron lung” like they told my Grandmother he would need to be. He later became a Marine. Both he and his brother were rarely sick. I get sick but my healing time is really short compared to my Moms side of the family.
Not sure what my dad was but my mom said her dad was part german and me as was my dad very rarely get sick, its been over a year since ive been to dr and hhave been put on a couple long term meds in the past but quittaking them and havent been on any since
Many years ago, my family are mainly Schwabisch from southern Germany (Karlsruhe area) and northern France (Strasbourg area). Among these industrious families, many were asked to relocate to Eastern Europe by the Hapsburg family (Prinz Eugen) so they could develop what is now Southern Vojvodina in Northern Serbia. Of course over the 300+ years, there was a mix of German, Hungarian, Romanian and Serbian. I love my genetic diversity. Great video!
My patrilineal line is from Karlsruhe, surname Nagel. They left in 1848 for North America. My matrilineal line is also Schwabisch, from the Stuttgart area. I knew about German settlement in Russia under encouragement from Russia's Catherine, but not about the Hapsburg connection you mention.
@dragasan don't let people from Karlsruhe know you call them "schwäbisch" 😂 they are "badisch", their dialect is "badisch" and hate to be called "schwäbisch" even if Schwaben is just around the corner (like Stuttgart)
My German ancestors were also invited by the Austrian crown to settle in the Banat in 1786 under Emperor Joseph. This area is now part of Romania. They came from the formerly German area of Alsace Lorraine which is now part of France. Some also emigrated from the Rhineland, and the the Black Forest. They were called "Donauschwaben" because they gathered in the Schwabian city of Ulm and traveled by boat on the Danube river to the Balkans.. Our family members' DNA results shows us to be primarily Southwest German with a very small percentage of Hungarian mixed in. Not too many people know about the interesting history of the millions of ethnic Germans who lived in Eastern Europe for centuries without losing their German cultural identity.
@@janroest2509 The region of Frankonia (in German: Franken), the origin of the tribe, is (still) located in central southern Germany. The Franks were one of the five tribes building the first German state under the Ottonian dynasty in the 10th century. In early medieval times, the Franks conquered many regions in the west and its elites were governing the Frankonian empire (Merovingian and Carolingian dynasty). But you should distinguish between the nobility of a tribe reigning a huge empire and the whole tribe (as this video is about genetics). The French took their name from the Franks, the reigning dynasty. That does not mean that the whole population of the former Roman Gaul provinces was replaced by Franks. There may have been a slight cultural and genetic influence. But the vast majority of the people there kept their own cultural traditions and their genetic heritage.
@@janroest2509 The Franks also occupied France. (Gaul) The Franks took Gaul from the Celts with the assistance of Rome. It was the emperor of the Franks who invited The Vikings to settle on land in France in return for stopping the raids on their coastline. The only ones who took him up on this deal were the Danes. They settled in the northern part of the country and named it Normandy, land of the Northmen. It wasn't long before The Normans marched on Paris and took the country from the Franks. Later the Normans sailed against England in 1066 from Normandy, the closest department (county) to England. William The Conqueror held several titles including Duke Of Normandy and Mayor of the castle. Part of my ancestry came from Normandy. There is no doubt they were descendants of the original settlers, The Danes.They were Huguenots who lived as refugees first in England, then Germany (Mannheim) and finally The Netherlands before coming to North America. New Netherlands was their home both in New York and New Jersey. For almost 200 years the only marriages in my family were between French and Dutch settlers. Later Welsh, Scottish, Irish, German and Sicilian were added. I'd love to see the DNA chain from that mix. I and 5 of my siblings have blonde hair and blue or hazel eyes. The other two have brown hair with hazel eyes. My father and mother had brown hair. My paternal grandfather had a Mediterranean complexion. The blonde hair snuck out from somewhere way back in our history.
I have the CCR5 Delta 32 mutated gene. But my brother does not. My great grandfather ( Siemens) was an officer in the Prussian army. Was told that officers were descendants of the Teutonic knights. My mother side of the family were de Hauteville’s ( Old Norse) Mother had white hair and gray eyes and I have white hair and green eyes. Once I had a colleague asked me to remove my sunglasses, she wanted to see if my eyes were pink.
The Hohenzollerns' ( original founding family of the Teutonic Knights) castle still stands...it is southeast of Stuttgart in Baden- Wurtemburg! They were the main influence in the original growth of Prussia...what was Northeastern Germany including Silesia and Pomerania, and East Prussia....it's main castle and fortification there called the Marienberg Castle...a HUGE fortress that still stands near the Baltic Sea east of Gdansk ( Danzig ) near what is now called Kaliningrad ( formerly Konigsburg).
My cousin wasdoing research on his side of the family.My family, his and about 5 other families survived the plague in Himmrlstadt where my great grandfather came from.
Although I am also Scots-Irish and a bit French, my ancestry includes North Germans from Rugen Island and Schwabs from Stuttgart. I have not yet had my ancestry done, but I am perplexed by the mingling that occurred before the historical record. No one seems to know much about the indigenous Ruegen Islanders. It is known that at least two groups swept through the area: first the Rus, and later the Wends. Later the German authorities (probably the Elector of Saxony) sent, well, German Germans (and who were they?) to resettle the area. Seemingly all that is known is that the inhabitants were one of the last peoples to cling to their pagan worship of a two-faced idol, and a white horse. The Ruegen people are also famous for being privateers and later plain old pirates, in the Baltic. I was told, growing up, that I was descended from pirates, which I always thought was pretty cool. Someday I hope to learn more.
Mingling that is supposed to have occurred 10000 years ago.... Sure enough! A I knows all about that! This is propaganda so the few of german desent swallow the pill that migration is a good thing.
This was wonderful, thank you breaking down the percentages. My mother is German and Polish, I have been able to trace my family history to a Germanic tribe and I found our family crest. Yet I still have sooo many questions! lol This was so interesting Vielen Dank!

They have a long history of contributing to the technology and development of the modern world. last but not least the brilliant musical genius of from the German composers ❤
Very nice video, it gives a great overview. But one has to say, that Germanic, Slavic and Celtic people are very close related since they derive from the same group.
Calling us "the same" is invalidating, because we have a very distinct genetic, cultural and linguistic heritage, so it's not appreciated, esp considering the history of imposition.
@@ashton1952 Über die Jahrhunderte haben sich verschiedene Volksgruppen, nämlich Germanen, Kelten und Slaven aus einer gemeinsamen Gruppe herausgebildet. Hier im Video geht das leider etwas unter, aber eine Kultur vor der Glockenbecherkultur könnte der "letzte gemeinsame Nenner" sein, wobei das natürlich nicht zu 100% bewiesen ist, wie vieles in dem Video.
@@ashton1952 According to a theory most of the ancestors of these groups lived at a certain time in these certain regions. We talk about different times. They also did not mention in that video, that Germanic, Celtic and Slavic people were all already a blend of first hunters and gatherers, first farmers from middle east and Yamnaya people (who probably brought indoeuropean languages with then). Like I said, DIFFERENT times.
@@ashton1952 I just answer because I have nothing else to do this saturday morning. Nothing I said is invalidating and I have gathered a lot of knowledge about migration history in central Europe, especially during Bronce Age, in recent years. Of course Celtic, Germanic, and Slavic cultures are different, that's why we have names for them. But still they are interwoven and related to each other and thus more similar than e.g. the Maori cultures and Germanic cultures. And can you tell me what the FUCK is "the history of imposition"? I never read anything about that in any history book I read.
My grandfather was blonde and had light blue eyes. I saw his photos when he was in his youth. He was a very cultured man. His haircut and dressed like a German soldier. He looked like a German Caucasian. A few years ago, an Austrian friend on FB shared a photo of his grandfather and he very much looked like my grandfather. But my grandfather's grandfather was from Afghanistan. My dad is blonde too with green eyes.
We, in the US, are all Heinz 57. (meaning we are a melting pot of many cultures) My family are of German descent. Do you know what is sad? We had to change the spelling of our last names to be less 'German,' not cook our foods, speak our language, and not keep celebrate our culture b/c during WWII, you did NOT want to be accused of being a communist.
Yes, my grandfather's paternal side came to America from Germany before WWII. They did not want people to know they were Germans. In fact, that is where the German language died out in our family as they told my grandfather that he was an American and in America. They made him only speak English. He was not allowed to speak German even though everyone else in the household would speak German to each other.
The more I watch, the more issues and inaccuracies i see. For one, the Celts absolutely did NOT cause the areas they spread into to get 'darker hair'. The Celta were likely to make hair lighter and/or not change this factor. Furthermore, the Romans were categorized as J2 and E1b Y-DNA. While this is true, R1b-U152 was still the DOMINANT branch of Romans. And then saying the Norse/Vikings were haplogroup I1 is true but, paints an incomplete picture. These people were/are a blend of I1, R1b and R1a.
The van in Dutch names means from the place they come from like mine from Aart ,van den Berg from the mountain,van der Merwe ,,,from the merwe river ect
talking about the mutation that allowed some people to avoid the plague... The reason I know so much about my German ancestors is an entry into a chronicle in Osnabruck for the bishop, granting a farm to my ancestor, after the previous owners vacated the planet. the Farm is still in the distant family, near Sudmerzen. Aside from that German line, I am pretty much nothing but Dutch and Frisian. Interesting to hear the DNA background to the whole story.
I’m German and Iberian…how cool to learn more about who I am and where I came from. My ancestors allegedly came over in the 1700’s, last name Maintzer then turning to Menser. I have green eyes and olive skin and lighten my hair but usually has a reddish brown color…my children have blonde hair and blue eyes…it’s so cool to see this but I did not know Bell meant swamp….kinda makes Drain the Swamp a bit different now especially considering I go by Sarah Rey Bell 🙃
You lost me at 15:33 - ALL of the allegedly celtic surnames are actually germanic. Surnames came about in the middle ages when celtic was only reminiscent in place names in formerly celtic areas (Bregenz, Konstanz etc.) but certainly not in spoken language which had been German for centuries. And a surname based on geography (e.g. at a stream or near a mountain) is not a specifically celtic naming convention.
Cool video. Genetics are still changing due to migration. Intermixing facilitates dominant traits that can help a gene pool. Should be interesting too see what people look like in a 1000 years.
This is what I always think about when learning about ancient cultures…what the future people will look like. It just seems like everyone is a mixture of everything. Because of that, racism should not be an issue

Also, wie gesagt, die türken müssen die griechen hassen, also, kann man ihnen nicht sagen, sie stammten von griechen ab, sondern nennt es "römisch".
My genetic test also shows the mixture of different ethnic groups in Germany, so I am 33% German, 32% Nordic and 30% Slavic/Russian - and the rest is East Mediterranean. I can trace my line back to the 16th century, my ancestors traveled across Central Europe and married across tribes. Yes, I am an European! But interestingly, the lineage also shows deep roots in a region in the Teutoburg Forest, where I am related to half of a town.
There was the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. also known as the Battle of Varus, where the Germanic tribes defeated the Roman legions. I was often there at the Hermannsdenkmal. This is a historically important place for Germany and very beautiful, too.
I'm American, but definately have a strong German heritage. R1b for the males, they were French, German then Irish for 300 years before arriving in the New World in the early 1600's. Ronald and Richard are common names for our men.
That you might add an archaolinguistic approach to the actual vernacular which became a structured language after Latin was introduced the, development of mind, the Germanic mind.
My family comes exclusively from Helgoland and Hamburg region. I'm 80% Suebi and about 15% Norske. We coalesced as the (lower) Saxons about 1800 years ago. Upper and lower Saxons is just a topographical term. Our coastal neighbours heading into what is now Holland and Belgium are the Angles and Jutes. "Viking" and Saxon/Angle long ships are almost indistinguishable. The Sutton Hoo find shows that, almost certainly the burial of an Angles noble.
Yes and not to be confused with Anglos. As with Gauls, not to be confused with French. Gauls - Gallic - Galícia - Gales - "País das Gales" = country of the Gales - aka "Welsh" in English

My first name is German, my last name is German, the names of my ancestors, as far as I can trace (Which is to 1752) were all German, all of my ancestors have been living in Germany (And so do I) and my body features (Blue-green eyes, dark blonde hair, very light skin, 1,85m tall, small nose and an angular face (kantiges Gesicht, don't know if the translation is correct)) all tell me I'm German. I know I'm German without taking any funny DNA tests. I feel blessed to know who I am and I feel deeply rooted in the region I've been living all my life in. Thank the lord my family didn't mix with anything else and stayed as German/European as possible.
That's a dangerous attitude nowadays 😁. But you are right, totally right. I feel the same, blonde (well, it went darker over the years and now turn into grey), blue eyes, same height, straight nose and feeling bound to my german ground I will defend. I feel very connected to my people, our habits and our culture. Good to see others being proud of our great ancestors and the heritage.
“I know I'm German without taking any funny DNA tests.” LOL!!! Somebody protesting too much, methinks. You know nothing, literally nothing. “Thank the lord my family didn't mix with anything else,” Always the people determined to remain ignorant who claim the most certainty. Your post reveals a great deal about you, my friend, but actually little of your deep ancestry. For all you know, you got most of your glorious reflection in the mirror from northern Italy. Or from some wartime slav. As someone who has seen many many thousands of marriage and birth records, I can tell you that 1752 is nothing - your genomecould be 80% Russian and 20% Greek for all you know. I have had two completely different bluegreen-eyed, pale, blond Jewish roommates from Austria and northern Italy/Poland. I had a colleague with green eyes and golden hair who looked like a wiry Viking: he was a Berber.
People who rode horses a lot were much less likely to contract bubonic (40% fatality rate) and septicemic (99% fatality rate) plague, because the black rat fleas whose bites transmitted these hated the smell of horse sweat and would hop off someone who had been riding! But unfortunately this didn't reduce the chance of catching pneumonic plague (90% fatality rate), because that was transmitted by breathing in water droplets from other peoples' coughs and sneezes.
Thank you for this great video. My ancestors have been living in Germany for centuries and my DNA fits perfectly with all the different cultures and people from everywhere who have shaped it. I am very happy about my multi cultural heritage. All those different influences have made this place and its people just so special and unique. And the story continues, no matter what narrow-minded people are going to say. Diversity is the essence of this place called Germany and it always will be.

I am German through and through, have grey-green eyes and have never had the plague. And I don't care at all about my genes. I just want my culture - created by countless German/Germanic ancestors - to be preserved and appreciated.
Everybody wants the same. If reincarnation is true you might live a very African life next time 😂
You can only preserved your culture by having children and passing that on, but in German the “white” Germans don’t want to procreate so your culture will die out. The migrants and Turks will not preserve your culture because they have their own.
Well your culture comes from Germanic genes my friend so you should care.
I hear you brother
Russian troll, speaking in English, about preserving German culture 😂
I think it's fair to say that if you're alive today and have European ancestry, your relatives survived the plague.
In Central-Eastern Europe (mainly medieval Hungary and Poland), the 14th century plague made a much less prominent appearance, though.
You are absolutely correct. Common sense isn’t so common these days people need to be spoonfed everything
@@dusansuhajda6273 in this video it discusses the genetic mutation that gave people immunity. That immunity was more prominent in the area you mentioned. More immunity = less plague.
The people without immunity, died. You can't make children if you're dead. So if you exist today, your ancestors survived the plague and probably had that immunity. Unless they lived under a rock and didn't have contact with other humans. Which would be an outlier.

I'm American but my ancestry on my fathers side was a mix of Prussian and German. Blonde hair and Blue eyes and fair skin. I love learning about my ancient ancestors.
If your Prussian ancestors are from the preWWII area roughly encompassed by the former East Prussia, then you likely have Baltic Old Prussian ancestry. The Baltic Old Prussians indigenous to this area were absorbed by mostly Germans, and in my case being of Mazuren ancestry, mixed with Mazovian Poles. If your family is from a different area of the former Prussian empire, you aren't Old Prussian, but likely a different German ethnicity, or something other, depending upon the region.
@Lee-jh6cr My ancestor came over in 1849. I don't know exactly where in Prussia he came come from that was never put in his paperwork. They listed him as a Russian but he was Prussian by birth. I do know his family name is now in Germany and there are ppl with that name still there.
@@freeangel5221 Prussian is German...Austria is the actual one that had Hungary in their Kingdom.
Yes, what is Prussian? Sorry if this is a dumb question to some, but I know my family is Prussian. What does this mean? Is it an ethnicity, or just that is what Germany was called back then? I don't know what it means to be Prussian.
@@elieshasteffanson5758Prussia was for a long time one of the most powerfull german subnations from 1701 to 1945. Its area reached from todays baltic regions into central of todays germany. The native Prussians where i think a mixed baltic/slavic/norse tribe living around todays Kaliningrad until the german Teutonic Order came 1230 invited by a polish duke to christianitize the pagan tribes of the Region by force. Alongside the violent crusade the german teutonic order people settled there and mixed culture with them, so they mainly spoke german. They gained much influence until in 1410 they lost in Tannenberg against Polish-Lithuanian forces. The orderlands existed until 1525 prussia became a duchy as a fief of Poland. In 1701 they became an independent Kingdom wich over the years got more and more powerfull. The King of Prussia Wilhelm I. became Kaiser of the united german Nations or German Reich in 1871. After WW1 and WW2 most of the Prussian lands where given to Poland and Germans there where driven out of their homeland. They moved mostly to todays germany but also north and south america. That was the keep short version history of Prussia mostly from my mind. Sorry for the long Text 😅 Greetings from Thuringia/Germany. My great grandfather is also from east Prussia.
There is very little difference between Slavs & Germans. Linguistically, both languages are indo-european & ethnically, they are very close too as the various German and Slavic tribes have intermixed significantly over a very long history. Both tribes will probably hate me saying this because most of that history seems to involve conflict between them but in reality you can’t put a rizla paper between them. Thank goodness for the very rich diversity of European people! I just wish they could stop fighting each other.
It’s true. I come from Silesia - the forgotten land and forgotten ethnic group, that came into existence at the beginning of 13 th century, when Saxonians, Bavarians, Turingians, and some Dutch, were invited to Silesia by the Silesian princes - who were Moravians. Since then Silesians became a good mix of Germanic peoples and the Moravians (current Chechs’). Silesia was mixing very well for all these centuries - I can see it in my family tree - all the names are either Germanic or Moravian. The problem started when The concept of ‘nationality’ came into existence, with the rise of Prussia and later fascism. Silesians - at the beginning being under Moravian rule, then Bohemian or Austro-Hungarian, and then Prussian. The last one did not end up well - for us Silesians because - being automatically the ‘new’ Germans, we were part of the WW2 madness, and as a punishment we were ethnically cleansed after WW2, well into 60s and even now - in some indirect way. Silesia became Polish and the identity crisis began. Silesians were not allowed to obtain an education, were tortured, and forced to change their names. Even myself born in the 80’s, I’ve experienced discrimination from my early childhood well into my adulthood. Generations of us paid for what the Nazis did. There is an identity dissonance because we will be never accepted as real Poles, nor in Germany as real Germans. We look Slavic because we lived in Silesia for over 700 years. Knowing one's ethnic background is very important, if people would understand how mixed we are, maybe there would no more be such stupidities, like nationalism and fascism.
You can expand your thoughts to all of Central Europe - it is a cross road of Celts, Germanic and Slavic tribes. Not to forget the Balts (which player a huge genetical role in this region) and tribes from the Balkans.
@@adloziThank you for telling us that important information. Years ago on the TV show Star Trek there was an episode where the captain and crew were caught in the middle of a civil war based on race which was inscrutable to anyone but the combatants. Both sides looked the same, half black and half white. As it turned out, the intolerance stemmed from the fact that one side of the warring aliens was white on the left and black on right side and the other was white on the right, etc. Such picayune differences to make a cause for.
Amen ! 🙏
Poles are primarily Arian R1a haplo in contrast to german celtic later group R1b. The R1b migrated to Europe through Anatolia, but Slavonic tribes moved north of the Black Sea and arrived in the Northern European plains earlier than celts.

I just returned from Bavaria. I was able to visit the small village (Schmalzgrub) where my grandfather was from. Church records show my Bavarian ancestors have lived in that small area back to 1600, probably longer.
Me too!! I have all the paperwork, history writeups, the ship boarding list, and documents all the way up to now, present day. My families came in sperts from both sides, but the first arrival was in 1708. Still rattled by the French after the 30 yrs war. The war ended upper middle 1600s, but every time they would rebuild, the French would burn the homes and crops back down. These were Catholics vs. Protestant wars. The French were EVIL, EVIL!
@Magoover1 They saw the same Protestant Catholic wars my ancestors saw then. These were just continuance of the 30 years wars. Crazy how many eastern Caucasian Americans roots from there!

I am half German from my mother and half Czech from my father. Born in Chicago in 1963, I learned to speak German as my first language because it was spoken by both parents at home. My dad could speak fluent German because of the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia in the 1940s.

He became a general, and learned all of Rome’s battle tactics and weaponry. He returned home, to join his German brethren, to marry the princess Thusnelda, and led the Germans to victory.

I loved this breakdown. The high percentage of Slavic genetics in East Germany isn’t because of Poland though. It’s because of the millions of East Prussians and West Prussians being ethnically cleansed and forced to abandon their country who fled West and settled in the first safe German Empire provinces they could reach. So-called modern Poland hasn’t even existed for 100 years yet. This fact should be added and corrected.

This video is very beautiful. What I know is that the majority of the white race traces its origins back to the Caucasus, including the Germans and even the Scandinavians, with the exception of the Finns, who are of Ural origin.
The Caucasians also ruled Anatolia in the distant past for very long time.
Presumably this is why we are called Caucasians. I always wondered about that.
Very interesting!
Some 2 years ago, the tribes of the traffic-lighters began their great journey through all regions of what is now Germany and they have truly transformed the entire region. We need some of the Celtic and Norseman genes to activate and take care of them.
What is a traffic lighter?
What are you talking about more specifically?
He talks about the German political and intellectual left. We currently have a government red/yellow/green parties. Hence traffic light, Ruined the country. We Germans think, Germany is about to collapse. The facade is somewhat intact still, but the state is going to collapse, soon.

You have forgotten the genetic heritage of the Neandertal-hominides. Each European has up to 2% of genes from the ancient Neandertals in his genome. Probably also for the blonde hair and bright skin. also the resistance of cold infections might be derived from it.
Was looking for this comment, thank you for adding
Ah the Neanderthal genetics 😊
We probably got red hair from the Neanderthals.
Great content, thank you! Blessings from south Bavaria 💚
Thanks for watching!
You have missed the most important component of German heritage, the germanics. Yes the east has strong Slavic influences and the South Keltic, the dominant trait is germanic though that is present in Scandinavia as well. I have not heard you mention the Saxons, schwabian and many others.
“Germanic“ is a collective designation by the Romans for all those tribes settling in our country ca. 2000 years ago. It has nothing to do with DNA.
No, they were not missing. Clear to see in all tables with percentages. What is a bit misleading is that one could get the impression of genetically homogeneous tribes that migrated and then mixed afterwards. But that mixing went on all along. The genetic differences between Germanic tribes and Slavic tribes are negligible. Same goes for Celtic or northern groups. Genetic migration research is about traces in genomes not about complete differences. Furthermore the terms that lable these groups need closer inspection themselves, for example the regional definition from 2000 years ago of what is Celtic and what is Germanic was more or less made up by the Romans who just defined the River Rhine to be the border between these groups. But from cultural, linguistic or genetic perspectives this makes not much sense considering the people that lived on both sides of the Rhine in those days. One thing that becomes more and more evident by genetic research is that differences between groups are being exaggerated always and everywhere. They are often retro projections into history serving ideological needs of the present. Don't get me wrong, there are differences but their scale is often hugely overstated. Last but not least there is no historical focal point of a group's unique origin. Whoever defined (the name of) a group and whenever that was done this group had already gone back to a complex past of interchanged genomes, migration as well as cultural and linguistic mixing.
@@hagenkleemann7309 some of your interpretations vs what you show isn't correct. You say that Germany is a mix of genetics. True, but the cultural development isn't a necessary part of the cultural part. Same as some of your pictures vs the outcome. Trier and the Roman portion isnt close to the Rhein river.
Language ...German is the base of a lot of other languages.
@@hagenkleemann7309the mix of genetics could have also been later on due to wars ...

Bavarian here on my mother's side. I grew up in Upper Bavaria, and my father's side is Transylvanian German with a strong Turkish influence. Although I'm light skinned, I don't get easily sunburned, and my eyes seem to change color from blue to green, gray, and even slight hazel, depending on my upper garment. I got COVID a few times, but my only symptom was being tired in the afternoon for a good weak. I hardly ever get sick although I'm nearly 70, a small male person, 5'6" and 137 lbs with a big head, nearly a leprechaun.
Yep. Guter Mix makes it. Long bloodline - never a good thing.

My maternal grandmother was German. There was quite an influence on my mother of certain German habits. Like cleaning, neatness, creativity, home healthcare, etc.
My mother was blonde with green eyes. I and two of my siblings are blonde. Two have blue eyes while I have grey eyes.
My brother told me our German ancestors came from northern Germany.
I had not known that the celts were in the European/German region. They are very perceptive with strange celebrations.
I am a sensitive person, being that I can feel unseen things. In my mind are impressions. Is this from celtic roots?
I've been trying to figure out where this comes from as my paternal aunt & paternal grandmother were this way.
One of the greatest examples is when I walked over to the landline phone that had not rung. I picked up the receiver. I said, "Hi grandma!"(paternal grandma) She did not have the habit of calling consistently on the same day & time.
You might have rh neg
The Celts went up as far as Mainz
I need to be tested. My Dad was mostly Scottish but also a smidge of German. His side of the family were healthier than the norm. My Dad even had polio when he was young and blew the doctors away when he was able to leave the hospital in only a few months never being in the “iron lung” like they told my Grandmother he would need to be. He later became a Marine. Both he and his brother were rarely sick. I get sick but my healing time is really short compared to my Moms side of the family.
Impressive
So you think because he was a "smidge of German" that had anything to do with his robust immune system?
Like Germans don't get sick?
Not sure what my dad was but my mom said her dad was part german and me as was my dad very rarely get sick, its been over a year since ive been to dr and hhave been put on a couple long term meds in the past but quittaking them and havent been on any since
I am Germanic
Many years ago, my family are mainly Schwabisch from southern Germany (Karlsruhe area) and northern France (Strasbourg area). Among these industrious families, many were asked to relocate to Eastern Europe by the Hapsburg family (Prinz Eugen) so they could develop what is now Southern Vojvodina in Northern Serbia. Of course over the 300+ years, there was a mix of German, Hungarian, Romanian and Serbian. I love my genetic diversity. Great video!
My patrilineal line is from Karlsruhe, surname Nagel. They left in 1848 for North America. My matrilineal line is also Schwabisch, from the Stuttgart area. I knew about German settlement in Russia under encouragement from Russia's Catherine, but not about the Hapsburg connection you mention.
@dragasan don't let people from Karlsruhe know you call them "schwäbisch" 😂 they are "badisch", their dialect is "badisch" and hate to be called "schwäbisch" even if Schwaben is just around the corner (like Stuttgart)
Q.Eugenie: past century
Mine too!!! My Oma is from Unterheimbach. ❤
My German ancestors were also invited by the Austrian crown to settle in the Banat in 1786 under Emperor Joseph. This area is now part of Romania. They came from the formerly German area of Alsace Lorraine which is now part of France. Some also emigrated from the Rhineland, and the the Black Forest. They were called "Donauschwaben" because they gathered in the Schwabian city of Ulm and traveled by boat on the Danube river to the Balkans.. Our family members' DNA results shows us to be primarily Southwest German with a very small percentage of Hungarian mixed in. Not too many people know about the interesting history of the millions of ethnic Germans who lived in Eastern Europe for centuries without losing their German cultural identity.
Well ... this very interesting video makes one thing clear: Nobody can't outsmart the creative power of nature.
Frank is a truly germanic Name...you said yourself, the Franks, a Tribe, were builders of new Europe
@@stinktimmernoch7738 maybe a germanic okay but suddenly not a german name.... the Franks was a tribe east for todays Germany
I thougt Franky went to hollywoood😅
@@janroest2509
The region of Frankonia (in German: Franken), the origin of the tribe, is (still) located in central southern Germany. The Franks were one of the five tribes building the first German state under the Ottonian dynasty in the 10th century.
In early medieval times, the Franks conquered many regions in the west and its elites were governing the Frankonian empire (Merovingian and Carolingian dynasty). But you should distinguish between the nobility of a tribe reigning a huge empire and the whole tribe (as this video is about genetics).
The French took their name from the Franks, the reigning dynasty. That does not mean that the whole population of the former Roman Gaul provinces was replaced by Franks. There may have been a slight cultural and genetic influence. But the vast majority of the people there kept their own cultural traditions and their genetic heritage.
@@janroest2509 The Franks also occupied France. (Gaul) The Franks took Gaul from the Celts with the assistance of Rome. It was the emperor of the Franks who invited The Vikings to settle on land in France in return for stopping the raids on their coastline.
The only ones who took him up on this deal were the Danes. They settled in the northern part of the country and named it Normandy, land of the Northmen. It wasn't long before The Normans marched on Paris and took the country from the Franks. Later the Normans sailed against England in 1066 from Normandy, the closest department (county) to England. William The Conqueror held several titles including Duke Of Normandy and Mayor of the castle.
Part of my ancestry came from Normandy. There is no doubt they were descendants of the original settlers, The Danes.They were Huguenots who lived as refugees first in England, then Germany (Mannheim) and finally The Netherlands before coming to North America. New Netherlands was their home both in New York and New Jersey. For almost 200 years the only marriages in my family were between French and Dutch settlers. Later Welsh, Scottish, Irish, German and Sicilian were added. I'd love to see the DNA chain from that mix.
I and 5 of my siblings have blonde hair and blue or hazel eyes. The other two have brown hair with hazel eyes. My father and mother had brown hair. My paternal grandfather had a Mediterranean complexion. The blonde hair snuck out from somewhere way back in our history.
Frank is still a German word. Rarely used, but every German knows it. "Frank und frei" is a German saying to speak open and free.
I'm of German heritage and never really got sick with all the stuff growing up and I'm now a cancer survivor.
My family all had Viking DNA from living on the North see and boat builders
I have the CCR5
Delta 32 mutated gene. But my brother does not. My great grandfather ( Siemens) was an officer in the Prussian army. Was told that officers were descendants of the Teutonic knights. My mother side of the family were de Hauteville’s
( Old Norse) Mother had white hair and
gray eyes and I have white hair and green eyes. Once I had a colleague asked me to remove my sunglasses, she wanted to see if my eyes were pink.
The Hohenzollerns' ( original founding family of the Teutonic Knights) castle still stands...it is southeast of Stuttgart in Baden- Wurtemburg! They were the main influence in the original growth of Prussia...what was Northeastern Germany including Silesia and Pomerania, and East Prussia....it's main castle and fortification there called the Marienberg Castle...a HUGE fortress that still stands near the Baltic Sea east of Gdansk ( Danzig ) near what is now called Kaliningrad ( formerly Konigsburg).
@@JGldmn333, thank you for the information.
My cousin wasdoing research on his side of the family.My family, his and about 5 other families survived the plague in Himmrlstadt where my great grandfather came from.
My family came here from Germany around the 1890s and settled near Morrison Illinois and into Iowa
Although I am also Scots-Irish and a bit French, my ancestry includes North Germans from Rugen Island and Schwabs from Stuttgart.
I have not yet had my ancestry done, but I am perplexed by the mingling that occurred before the historical record. No one seems to know much about the indigenous Ruegen Islanders. It is known that at least two groups swept through the area: first the Rus, and later the Wends. Later the German authorities (probably the Elector of Saxony) sent, well, German Germans (and who were they?) to resettle the area.
Seemingly all that is known is that the inhabitants were one of the last peoples to cling to their pagan worship of a two-faced idol, and a white horse. The Ruegen people are also famous for being privateers and later plain old pirates, in the Baltic.
I was told, growing up, that I was descended from pirates, which I always thought was pretty cool.
Someday I hope to learn more.
Ruegen still exist to this very day!. A beautiful region to visit in Summer.
Mingling that is supposed to have occurred 10000 years ago.... Sure enough!
A I knows all about that! This is propaganda so the few of german desent swallow the pill that migration is a good thing.
This was wonderful, thank you breaking down the percentages. My mother is German and Polish, I have been able to trace my family history to a Germanic tribe and I found our family crest. Yet I still have sooo many questions! lol This was so interesting Vielen Dank!

Very nice video, it gives a great overview. But one has to say, that Germanic, Slavic and Celtic people are very close related since they derive from the same group.
Germanics and Slavs from north of the Black Sea/Ukraine region. Celts from the south of the Black Sea/ Iraq region.
Calling us "the same" is invalidating, because we have a very distinct genetic, cultural and linguistic heritage, so it's not appreciated, esp considering the history of imposition.
@@ashton1952 Über die Jahrhunderte haben sich verschiedene Volksgruppen, nämlich Germanen, Kelten und Slaven aus einer gemeinsamen Gruppe herausgebildet. Hier im Video geht das leider etwas unter, aber eine Kultur vor der Glockenbecherkultur könnte der "letzte gemeinsame Nenner" sein, wobei das natürlich nicht zu 100% bewiesen ist, wie vieles in dem Video.
@@ashton1952 According to a theory most of the ancestors of these groups lived at a certain time in these certain regions. We talk about different times. They also did not mention in that video, that Germanic, Celtic and Slavic people were all already a blend of first hunters and gatherers, first farmers from middle east and Yamnaya people (who probably brought indoeuropean languages with then). Like I said, DIFFERENT times.
@@ashton1952 I just answer because I have nothing else to do this saturday morning. Nothing I said is invalidating and I have gathered a lot of knowledge about migration history in central Europe, especially during Bronce Age, in recent years. Of course Celtic, Germanic, and Slavic cultures are different, that's why we have names for them. But still they are interwoven and related to each other and thus more similar than e.g. the Maori cultures and Germanic cultures.
And can you tell me what the FUCK is "the history of imposition"? I never read anything about that in any history book I read.
Very interesting! My mother's maiden name is Ziegler!! Hehe didn't know we were brick makers. 😁 Thanks ❣️

My grandfather was blonde and had light blue eyes. I saw his photos when he was in his youth. He was a very cultured man. His haircut and dressed like a German soldier. He looked like a German Caucasian. A few years ago, an Austrian friend on FB shared a photo of his grandfather and he very much looked like my grandfather. But my grandfather's grandfather was from Afghanistan. My dad is blonde too with green eyes.
We, in the US, are all Heinz 57. (meaning we are a melting pot of many cultures) My family are of German descent. Do you know what is sad? We had to change the spelling of our last names to be less 'German,' not cook our foods, speak our language, and not keep celebrate our culture b/c during WWII, you did NOT want to be accused of being a communist.
Yes, my grandfather's paternal side came to America from Germany before WWII. They did not want people to know they were Germans. In fact, that is where the German language died out in our family as they told my grandfather that he was an American and in America. They made him only speak English. He was not allowed to speak German even though everyone else in the household would speak German to each other.
Thank you for a Fantastic video! I would love to see one on Italian DNA!
The more I watch, the more issues and inaccuracies i see. For one, the Celts absolutely did NOT cause the areas they spread into to get 'darker hair'. The Celta were likely to make hair lighter and/or not change this factor.
Furthermore, the Romans were categorized as J2 and E1b Y-DNA. While this is true, R1b-U152 was still the DOMINANT branch of Romans.
And then saying the Norse/Vikings were haplogroup I1 is true but, paints an incomplete picture. These people were/are a blend of I1, R1b and R1a.
❤ Thank you so very much for the correct pronunciation! of “Yamnaya” 4:29 👍‼️

talking about the mutation that allowed some people to avoid the plague... The reason I know so much about my German ancestors is an entry into a chronicle in Osnabruck for the bishop, granting a farm to my ancestor, after the previous owners vacated the planet. the Farm is still in the distant family, near Sudmerzen. Aside from that German line, I am pretty much nothing but Dutch and Frisian.
Interesting to hear the DNA background to the whole story.
I’m German and Iberian…how cool to learn more about who I am and where I came from. My ancestors allegedly came over in the 1700’s, last name Maintzer then turning to Menser. I have green eyes and olive skin and lighten my hair but usually has a reddish brown color…my children have blonde hair and blue eyes…it’s so cool to see this but I did not know Bell meant swamp….kinda makes Drain the Swamp a bit different now especially considering I go by Sarah Rey Bell 🙃
You lost me at 15:33 - ALL of the allegedly celtic surnames are actually germanic. Surnames came about in the middle ages when celtic was only reminiscent in place names in formerly celtic areas (Bregenz, Konstanz etc.) but certainly not in spoken language which had been German for centuries. And a surname based on geography (e.g. at a stream or near a mountain) is not a specifically celtic naming convention.
Cool video. Genetics are still changing due to migration. Intermixing facilitates dominant traits that can help a gene pool. Should be interesting too see what people look like in a 1000 years.
This is what I always think about when learning about ancient cultures…what the future people will look like. It just seems like everyone is a mixture of everything. Because of that, racism should not be an issue

There was the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. also known as the Battle of Varus, where the Germanic tribes defeated the Roman legions. I was often there at the Hermannsdenkmal. This is a historically important place for Germany and very beautiful, too.

Upper and lower Saxons is just a topographical term. Our coastal neighbours heading into what is now Holland and Belgium are the Angles and Jutes. "Viking" and Saxon/Angle long ships are almost indistinguishable. The Sutton Hoo find shows that, almost certainly the burial of an Angles noble.

People who rode horses a lot were much less likely to contract bubonic (40% fatality rate) and septicemic (99% fatality rate) plague, because the black rat fleas whose bites transmitted these hated the smell of horse sweat and would hop off someone who had been riding! But unfortunately this didn't reduce the chance of catching pneumonic plague (90% fatality rate), because that was transmitted by breathing in water droplets from other peoples' coughs and sneezes.

Thank you for this great video. My ancestors have been living in Germany for centuries and my DNA fits perfectly with all the different cultures and people from everywhere who have shaped it. I am very happy about my multi cultural heritage. All those different influences have made this place and its people just so special and unique. And the story continues, no matter what narrow-minded people are going to say. Diversity is the essence of this place called Germany and it always will be.
Germany already has all the diversity it needs, which means they don't need to import any more of it, especially from non-European countries.
