PUERTO RICAN 23andme results | Expected vs Actual. Season 1. Episode 19.

[@marllon9786]

In the beginning of this video, you mention Spaniards and Europeans as separate groups inferring that they are mutually exclusive, when Spaniards are in fact Europeans. Spain is in Europe.

[@jawa1775]

Spainards are darker they look like her, they have mostly black hair and dark tan while North European are brown hair and tan to white skin

[@peachygal4153]

@@jawa1775 Not true. I have been there. Yes, blond/blue eyes are rare, but very few with dark hair. The majority had brown hair and hazel eyes.

[@Erastoneus45]

​@@jawa1775 Spaniard are Middle terranean European. Also, not all Spaniard looks like you described here because it depends on the regions and depend which ancestries they have on their genes. Spaniard can be blonde as well redheads and have blue eyes. The way media portrays them as this swarthy Middle eastern looks similar somewhat to Arab due to the believe the moors conquered them and left the spaniard with too much middleeasterm ancestries when it true Spaniard disposed of them on the Reconquista and killed much of them and some did not intermix with them. That middle eastern genes is a bit exaggerated and do not represent all the spaniard genotypes and phenotypes. Do not get me wrong they get me wrong; some looks this way, and some regions have some more northern african genes from the moors conquering them. Though, nowadays it just a fraction of it or a bit of it). Some areas have it very little to no northern African ancestry. It is true that the middleterranean european are darker in some way and have more populace having darker hair and brown eyes colors than northern european but not all spaniards are like this as well not all northern european look like a nordic and have blondes and redhair with blues or green eyes. It is merely a generalization from a halftruths of spaniard having some northern ancestry on them.

[@Erastoneus45]

@@jawa1775 Also, only a fraction of puerto ricans have spaniard looks. Not to mention we have also african blood than we sometimes like to ignore despite being mixed race only to ignore we also descend from black people and they did as well as european to make our culture., But we ought to stop overrepresenting the european side and look the african side as well to have a more accurate with little amerindian ancestry we have left.

[@emirojas92]

Whenever people say "it's just a small percentage" I feel like they are dismissing their ancestors. Those small percentages belong to our ancestors and have contributed to our existence and are just as important as high percentages. Besides that, your review was great.

thankyou for saying this...as a puerto rican i get so embarrassed how little alot of my fellow ricans dont kno of there own history...it amazes me

[@Erastoneus45]

I assure as a Puerto Rican that most people on my country know much of their history as they only know what they superficially learn on school ( which is bad education btw that is emberassing). Some Puerto Rican tends to deny their african ancestry even though we have some features or all the features of it even if they have blue eyes, blondes or redheads. I was surprised I had some portuguese in me by AncestryDNa and I barely knew there were other europeans that came here or what tribes of african came here. Thankfully, some puerto rican are catching up and realizing more of the story of their ancestry.

Both my Parents are Puerto Rican and I got 75.2 % European with 73% being Spanish and Portuguese and Galicia as my #1 region. My Native American came out at 13.1%. Western Asian/North African at 3.9%. Sub Saharan African at 6%.

[@alexiveperez4687]

Western Asian/North African is also part of your Spanish DNA, simply being misidentified.

[@Jonmad17]

Got my results on Christmas morning. Both of my parents are fully Puerto Rican, and I got 72% European, 15% Native American, 8% African, and 3% West Asian. Pretty much exactly what I expected.

[@cowboyjicjac]

Native American ! Do you think that’s from the Taino side!?

[@Jonmad17]

​@@cowboyjicjac It's definitely Taíno. When you click on the "Indigenous American" tab it highlights all of North and South America, so I don't think that 23andme has enough population samples to list a specific region for your native ancestry. But it would have to be Taíno, given that all of my recent ancestors are from Puerto Rico.

[@cowboyjicjac]

@@Jonmad17 that totally makes sense! Let me know in the comments if you end up making a video so I can see!!! Thanks for sharing :)

[@Jonmad17]

​@@coolspike7659 My results are fairly average for a Puerto Rican, at least among all of my distant relatives on 23andme. Puerto Rico and Cuba were Spain's last two colonies in the New World, so we tend to have more recent European ancestry.

[@MagicSnapO]

I’m glad you say this. Specifically its spanish which actually have decent traces of North African DNA that carries over to us as well. The average Puerto Rican is something like 70% european. The European part seems to get a lot of rejection from the PR community. We are what we are. To be fair we seem to be most obsessed with the taino part which we have the least of.

[@Myguyver]

just want to include also that other Europeans also are a part of some Puerto Rican ancestry . from Italians, Irish, Scottish, french , Basque, and others.

Este es el mapa genético europeo, viene detallado por país. Muy interesante. Los españoles son R1b mayoritariamente, son tipo Atlántico europeo, si alguien cree que son oscuros es que nunca han estado en España. Se creen que los bailarines de flamenco son los típicos españoles y resulta que son de étnia gitana que no tiene nada que ver con los españoles de origen. Hay mucho desconocimiento sobre los españoles sobre todo en norteamerica y su área de influencia, por eso cuando viajan por turismo a España se sorprenden porque ven que la población de origen es completamente europea más parecidos incluso a Los franceses que a los italianos. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJawpWCIlJeqhqMsi=gT0YmVYsOU70Yfl6

[@LorianR]

You clearly mistake Portugal with Spain in the video. When “Spain & Portugal” percentage showed up and you insisted on your “Portugal side” or wherever, the detailed breakdown showed 1.Canary Islands and 2.Galicia, both Spanish areas. Plus it’s clearly stated: “we did not detect enough evidence of recent ancestry from Portugal”

The portuguese and spanish means Iberian wich we all have in the peninsula at least 50% is common we are indeed the same people even tho we love to say we are different

My British & Irish ethnic group is 1-3 generations away which is a parent, grand parents, or great grand parent. My grandfather was 100% British & Irish to my knowledge. The next one is Italian at 2-4 generations away and this is from my grandmother on my dads side who is half Italian and half Portuguese. The next one is Spanish & Portuguese at 4-7 generations away and the rest are all 6-8 generations :) thanks for the help! I didn’t realize I could figure that out

4:03 "all these regions are superspecific" Umm, no. theres still a whole, whole lot of work that needs to be done with sub-saharan African reference population sampling and Africa has the most genetic diversity. Also the "countries" are very recently made after gaining independence, and are made up of lots of different ethnic groups.

[@Catitalaratoncita]

All my grandparents are Chilean, but I know that I got some indigenous (Mapuche), Argentinean (mestizo?), Iberian (the surnames point to so many different regions), French (From Brittany), and Swiss German. However, it would still be fun to see what my dad gets! I would really like to get 23andme.

The Sub Saharan is The BANTU tribe specifically The Kikongo Kingdom "Judah" in the bible which means you are related to King David and Jesus Christ. They keep it a secret but that is the truth the real reason they started these sites is because they scattered the tribe of Judah through the transatlantic slave trade they have a list of all the slaves but they wanted to know how many people have that bloodline. Deuteronomy 28:68. The bible says this about the descendants of Abraham “ I will give you this land for your descendants. I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you. I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky.” That area in Africa if you look in the book of Jubilees is the promised land of Shem most Bantu people live there ❤.
