It is irrelevant. How could a desert country with so few resources as Chad, which furthermore was isolated from the development of civilizations since ancient times, have become rich ? That is part of the historical circumstances I noted above.
A better example would have been Ireland, which is the country with the highest percentage of R1b in the world, and yet was for most of written history was one of the poorest (sometimes
the poorest) country in Europe. However, given the right opportunity to develop since the 2nd half of the 20th century, it has quickly become one of the richest European countries.
Is there any study that found a higher rate of autism among carriers of hg I ? If you merely base your assumption based on Scandinavian ancestry it is flawed logic since
all Scandinavian countries have more hg R1 than I1.
You have completely misunderstood me. I didn't talk say that R1b men had an over abundance of masculine traits. There are dozens of masculine traits, but R1b men somehow seem to display more of
some traits associated with economic success (ambition, industriousness, individualism, entrepreneurship), while other haplogroups display other traits.
I have long noted that region with high percentages of haplogroup I1 or J tend to be particularly gifted tradespeople and maritime explorer (Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Vikings, Arabs). They also tend to care more about nurturing good business relationships and are gifted negotiators.
I have posted several years ago about E1b1b men being apparently more aggressive and authoritarian on average, and attaching a lot of importance to enjoying respect from other people. This observation was based on North Africans, South Italians and Albanians, but now that I know that both Napoleon and Hitler were E1b1b, it makes sense for them too.
I disagree for two reasons :
1)
A study on Pakistani men (Behav et al., 2009) found evidence that members of haplogroup R have higher aggression levels than members of other (South Asian) haplogroups.
2) If there is one trait that has always characterised R1b societies from ancient times to present, it is individualism (
see map). Celtic societies in particular have always shown a distinct lack of cooperation among their members. The default "ancestral" state of humanity is collectivism. Individualism is most prevalent in societies with high R1b levels.
In fact, ancient and modern Celtic societies, which had/have a very high percentage of R1b, tended to be too disorganised to be economically efficient, due to their exacerbated individualism. It is thanks to the Roman and Germanic cultures that organisation was brought into Celtic societies that permitted them to prosper. The richest regions in Europe are characteristically those where Celtic and Germanic or Latin peoples and cultures have converged: northern Italy, Switzerland, Austria, southern and western Germany, eastern France, the Benelux, Britain, Ireland and Norway (which has a lot of Celtic R1b-L21 imported by the Vikings from Ireland and Scotland).
Historically, bisexuality and homosexuality seem to have been more prevalent in countries such as Greece and Portugal, where Y-haplogroups are particularly heterogeneous. Anyway, I think that homosexuality depends more on mothers than fathers since it is the mother's hormonal levels during pregnancy that affects the masculinisation or feminisation of the brain during the foetus's development.
