UK, Ireland / Polish and Irish people are related? [137]
Overall I think it is more of the history I think Poles & Irish have had similar histories of Opression. But, I think Scots are more like us. as Scots gave English much more trouble much like the Poles gave Germans & Russians much more trouble. Also Scots made up alot of Intellectuals in England like Poles made up alot of Intellectuals in Germany & Russia.
Scotland had remarkable victories against England when they were well outnumbered like in the first & 2nd Scottish wars of Indenpedence.
Much like how Poles with a lower population beat Germans in the Battle of Plowce & Lubieszow with smaller troops & Russians in the Battle of Klushino with less troops.
Irish people are actually one of the furthest people from Poles by genes in Europe.
I think Iberians are the only people who are further away from Poles by genes.
The main haplogroup of Poles is R1a.
Ireland barely even has R1a. I believe Ireland is like 3 percent R1a. While Poland is like 56 percent R1a haplogroup.
The closest genetic relatives of Poles in the British Isles are actually the Scottish as the Scots have the most R1a haplogroup in Western Europe.
But, maybe the blood types explain a little. Scotland has the highest B Blood type in Western Europe & Ireland has the 2nd highest B Blood type in Western Europe.
B blood type is higher in Eastern Europeans. I believe Baltic people especially Latvians & Russians have the most B Blood type in Europe.
But, Poles also have a high level of B blood type at about 18 percent.
I believe Latvians are 24 percent B Blood & Russians 23 percent.
Scots I believe are 12 percent B Blood & Irish are 11 percent B Blood type.
Which is higher than most of Western Europe. Alot of Western Europe is between 4 & 12 percent B blood type ( With Scots highest at 12 percent.
But with averages like 5-8 percent usually
B Blood type has a stronger association with Central Asia. So, that might explain it. R haplogroup which includes R1a & R1b has rootsi n or near Central Asia.
So my guess is that Celts like Scots & Iriish perhaps have a little closer connection to Central Asia than other Western Europeans.
Which may explain why they are more like Poles.
