Forums - General - You're a Western European Male? Guess Which Common Ancestor You All Have!

Since I'm a descendant of a relatively important brazilian nobleman, I can trace my lineage back to Charlemagne, William the Conqueror, Afonso Henriques, Hugo Capet and Ferdinand of Aragon.

It's not that hard to descend from someone pretty important that far back in time - someone one day will probably link Obama to the first chinese emperor or something like that...

So.. you're royalty?

Also, with my luck, I'm probably a descendant of some dubious individual, such as Nero.

Yes, but not as dubious.

My name links back to Norse Vikings... Not sure if this would link me with Tut. I think it's pretty awesome that we can all be linked back to certain people though!

Exactly my point. Stereotypes piss me off.

If that was your point, I don't get you quoted me. What's the stereotype?

There are many things beyond those simple racial schemes nazis like so much: for example Basques, Berbers, ancient Canarians, ancient Iberians and probably many other ancient European and African peoples long assimilated by more recently arrived ones descend from white western European - north western African groups that WEREN'T Indo-European. Ancient Canarian DNA is present in a large percentage of modern Spanish, but only from female ancestry, as Spanish invaders took Canarian women as wives and made the men slaves, so the women survived and had descendants, while men were quickly exterminated by harsh work conditions and diseases taken from the Spanish and that their immune systems weren't used to. Another fact is that most probably the so called pure German race doesn't exist, as they were partially invaded first by Romans , that in the late centuries of their empire had soldiers from every part of known world, including Africa and Middle East (and when they weren't at war, they were allies or they had commercial deals), and later by the Huns, then they invaded in their turn the Roman Empire, so bye-bye pure race, if it ever existed.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, you're most likely somehow related to Genghis Khan.
