Genealogy / Polish-Ukranian roots and genes [72]

This is my first post.
Not too long ago i read a thread about how Ukranians are really Polish. I don't exactly believe this but found this interesting subject, Haplotype.

(wikipedia)
The term haplotype is a contraction of the term 'haploid genotype'. In genetics, a haplotype (from the Greek: ἁῦ, haploûs, "onefold, single, simple") is a combination of alleles at multiple loci that are transmitted together on the same chromosome. Haplotype may refer to as few as one locus or to an entire chromosome depending on the number of recombination events that have occurred between a given set of loci.

The genetic marker for most people of slavic origin is the Haplotype r1a1.

Anyways, it appears that Polish and Ukranian genes are pretty damn similar. As far as the frequency of this gene is concerned it appears very high in both Polish and Ukranian people.

I also found it interesting that this gene appears in our German cousins (not in high frequency but appears none the less) and goes as far as Iceland.

I'd like to hear some comments on this. Thanks.
