Abstract:
The severe cooling and the expansion of the ice sheets during the LGM, 27,000–19,000 y ago (27–19 ky ago) had a major impact on plant and animal populations...
I am reading a book by archaeologist A. Kokowski and there is an interesting map showing the area of Celtic ethnogenesis:
This area is "a - obszar genezy Celtów", as you can see much of Eastern France was also part of this area according to him:

To be completely accurate, it is illegal for the French government to collect ethnic or racial data.
However, it is not illegal for various NGOs to collect ethnic or racial data.
Which is why those surveys which I posted above could be carried out.
Germanic and Celtic tribes 2000 years ago:
(I added modern state borders to this map)

Compared to Germanic and Gaulish auDNA:

Orange = Germanic
Blue = Gaulish
Okay here is my final estimate of Non-French Europeans in France:
(based both on Joshua Project, ChatGPT and a few other sources)
Anglo-Celtic - 0.326%
Scandinavian - 0.072%
Central Euro - 0.235%
Dutch-Belgian - 1.013%
Iberian - 3.438%
Italian - 2.263%
East Romance - 0.452%
Greek-Albanian -...
When it comes to autosomal DNA:
If we add together Briton Iron Age + Gaulish Iron Age ancestry, then many regions of England are more Celtic, it seems.
Also, isn't England's Germanic identity quite weak today considering that most English identify as "British" over "English"...
All things considered, do you see England as more Germanic or as more Celtic?
Vote in the poll.
PS:
The reason I'm starting this thread is because I didn't include England in my previous poll...
If we believe Joshua Project then the largest non-French groups are:
German 663000 (not including Alsatians)
Portuguese 528000
Jewish 418000
Italian 181000
British 162000
Spaniard 138000
Russian 133000
Polish 133000
Hungarian 114000
Dutch 90000
Walloon 66000...
This website provides a breakdown of ethnic groups in France:

However, I think that some of these numbers are not reliable.
Greeks in Asia Minor ca. 1900:

Map is based on the following five sources:
- K. Fotiadis's "The Genocide of the Pontian Greeks" Chapter Two (data for Trabzon, Sinop, northern Sivas)
- Toynbee's and Bryce's "The treatment of Armenians in the...
If we assume that all Non-White Brazilians have Iberian or Japanese surnames, then:
Racial composition:
Whites - 43.36%
Others - 56.64% (- 0.7% = 55.94%)
Surnames data:
Japanese - 0.7%
Iberian - 88.1% (- 55.94% = 32.16%)
Italian - 7.2%
German - 3.2%
East European - 0.8%
So the distribution...
Which Poland do you prefer?
I chose 1228 as the beginning of multi-ethnic Poland because that is when the Teutonic Order was invited to Poland. Mass immigration of German settlers to various regions of Poland also started around that time (maybe a bit sooner, but after 1200). Also by year 1264...
A map of the modern distribution of Native Siberian ethnic groups:
(they are today only about 5% of the total population of Siberia)

Are there any studies about genetics of Indigenous Siberians?
I made a map of population density in the Arctic:

(I included regions which comprise the Arctic according to the Arctic Council)
