Don’t get me wrong, I am neither a nationalist (I consider myself as nationless), nor an obsolete racial theorist. I believe that humans should be nationless and there should be one global government. However, modern geneticists are inclined to prove that neighboring European populations do overlap, therefore it is the evidence that nations mean little sense. But my claim is that some neighboring European populations don’t genetically overlap.
What do modern genetics tell us about European populations?
The discovery of DNA was a huge achievement. Suddenly, contrary to primitive theories, the scientists told people that they – basically – shouldn’t be nationalists because populations not only overlap, but the old tribal theories (that populations are close because they share Slavic, Germanic, or Celtic culture) are wrong.
As a matter of fact populations are close based on proximity, not on cultural heritage. So how can I claim that some European populations don’t genetically overlap?
A tiny portion of racial theorists’ claims were right
I hate racial hate, nationalism that brought nothing but gas chambers and I suddenly agree with the old hateful, pseudoscientific theorists who believed that European races possessed different innate intelligence, personality characteristics, and so on?
This is, of course, nonsense. However, they precisely observed how skulls, faces, hair, and so on looked like and I must admit they were somehow right.
European populations don’t genetically overlap if we see skulls and faces
I know the politicians who call themselves scholars would object that I am bringing back something awful, obsolete and dangerous. But we shouldn’t limit free inquiry.
I cannot hide that I have observed what Germans had looked like. I started as a complete amateur from nothing, trying to reinvent the wheel. And as you guessed, I failed really miserably.
Imagine trying to start researching mathematics. Even though when you know nothing and the giants of the field already brought their fruits of the labor.
So I went to the old, mainly disproved (I mean in terms the national characteristics and so on) theories. And I found thousands of people before me have done their job well.
You can tell apart a Czech and a German with a 95 % probability
Since I started studying what respective European nations looked like, I was stunned by how Germans looked the same and how simple it was to tell apart a German from a Czech. Just by watching a German TV show.
German people have a triangular skull, broad in the middle of its height, with high and prominent cheekbones. How simple! Only a very small fraction of people who live in the historical Czech lands possess such a look.
The geneticists claim some European populations do overlap
Yes, they are scientists and I am not. The DNA research is hard evidence, but there must be markers that are distinct for some of the European populations that genetically overlap. They cannot tell whether someone is Czech or German, but you can just by looking at their skulls and faces.
They also claim Austrians and Czechs are really intermixed. But there is an enormously huge probability that you tell apart a Czech and an Austrian.
Czechs look more like French people in skull form, yet they are – logically – more similar to Germans because they are geographically closer.
Conclusion
While some European populations don’t genetically overlap, there is absolutely no reason to judge people by their looks or genetic origins (and people do it nowadays). In the case of historical Czech lands, there were always changes.
First, there were Celtic and Germanic people. Then, they were assimilated into Slavs, therefore acquiring their culture.
And while racists and nationalists don’t want to hear this, the nowadays mass migration is changing the look of people living in the Czech lands.
The same thing is happening over and over again.
