Slavic nations

Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia & Montenegro, Fyrom, Albania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Belarus & Russia (I don't think I forgot anyone).

Hungary, Romania and Moldova aren't Slavic IMO. Neither the Baltics are.

Ummm, were not slavs.
Nobody is too sure. but we are definately not slavs.

Hungary is not slavic?... i know they decendands of Magyars but they have probably interbred with slavs havent they??

Genetics have also shown that many of the "slav" nations of today in the adriatic area of the balkans arent even of slavic descent. Some were as low as %15 of slavik origin.  However I am always cautious when looking at DNA studies.  Many of these studies though seem to be overwhelming.

Yes, as well as some trends.  For instance:

1.  The highest concentration of hp 1 is in Ireland with huge majorities in rest of western Europe.  The further east you go the less concentration there is of it.  By the time you get to Germany it becomes a minority.

2.  The highest concentration of hp 3 is in the northern Indian subcontinent with majorities going into central Asia and into eastern Europe but with considerable outliers in Scandinavia and Britain.

3.  The highest concentration of hp 2 is in eastern Scandinavia, which as you go south into the Continent dissipates throughout Europe with "island" majorities in the Ukraine and the western Balkans.  We find a sizable proportion of this haplotype among Anatolian and trans-Caucasian peoples but again find large proportions among peoples of the northern India subcontinent.

4.  The highest concentration of hp 16 is in the easternmost Scandinavia with majority concentrations in the Baltics and northeastern Europe. 

5.  The highest concentration of hp 9 is the Middle East with sizable concentrations in northern Africa and into the northern Indian subcontinent.  Sizable European frequencies are in Greece and Italy with much dissipation further north.

6.  The highest concentration of hp 21 is in northern Africa with sizable concentrations in the middle east and Greece, with dissipations throughout most of Europe and the rest of western Asia.

Com'on, all Bulgars, Avars, Ongars were originally Turkic tribes from western steppes, today's Kazakhstan. But today, Bulgarians can be considered as Slavic.

Originally posted by Mosquito Actually on this genetic map Greeks, Bulgarians and Turks look quite similar. But in fact bulgarians look even more similar to yugoslavians.

Bulgarians dont look that similar to us in this map. They look quite similar to Slavs.

I wouldnt generalise that much. From all the slavs they look similar only to Yugoslavians. Please notice that even Slovenians who are close to them are different. And notice that most of slavic nations on the map got a lot of HG 3 while Bulgarians and Yugoslavians not. Pity that the authors of this map didnt check Croats and Albanians.

Originally posted by Temujin Originally posted by Mosquito I dont know if they can be called a nation but there are Sorbs in Germany, descendats of the medieval Slavs who were living there and were conquered by Germans. in fact Charlemagne conquered and subjugated those western Slav tribes, Germans just "inherited" these dominions.

If i remember well in the end of 10th century and in begining of 11 century both Germans and Poles were fighting against some independent slavic tribes on the territory of this what was known as eastern Germany.

Even if they were not from Balhara they were for sure completely different from those others listed. The proof of this is that they probably always fought them when ever in contact.
