I'm not a nationalist. We had Serbs who have been taught us that we are all Serbs. Because we speak the same language, we have the same customs, etc. then came genetics and everything has turned...
It is no secret that a large number of Croats during the Turks in Bosnia and Croatia crossing to Islam and Orthodoxy ..it was logical ... Today they are Bosnians and Serbs ..and it is quite evident in genetics ...
In the record is mentions Great Croatia and it is visible on the genealogy tree that White Croats scatter in all directions through europe...
And probably larger part of Serbs in the time of Ottoman Empire converted to Islam and Roman Catholic faith (later small number is converted to Protestantism). And Serbs were Roman Catholic in substantial numbers before Ottoman Empire came to the Balkans. And what?
It doesn't matter. Today's nations are social constructions, not genetic. Serbs, Croats and Bosniacs have same genetics (Y-DNA), no matter whether I2a, E-V13 etc. Orthodox and Roman Catholic Christians who converted in Islam today are Bosniacs, the same is true for those who have converted to Catholicism, they are Croats today, and for those who have converted to Orthodox Christianity, they are Serbs. But haplogroups of these male people are same.
Nations and religions have nothing to do with haplogroups.
If someone wants find differences between male Croats, Serbs, Bosniacs, etc. he or she can analyze R1a.
Clades of R1a have differences:
According it is:
Much better thanks.
I can see few groups, proportionally regarding R1a clads to each other.
Slavs that group together.
- Serbs, Bosniaks, Macedonians and some Russian and Belarusian places.
- Poles, Slovaks (but not Wroclaw, many citizens come from Ukraine and Belarus).
- Croatians with Czechs.
- Bulgarians with Russians from Kostroma and Ivano-Frankfurt
- Slovenia is standing out.
Z282 seems to be East European
This is for a quick glance only.
Plus Herzegovina, Macedonia, Serbia not only are similar but have the lowest percentage of R1a (plus in Serbia was found R1a Z95 that is different than typical clades of population of Slavic countires).
