Genographic


That's the name of a project led by National Geographic and carried out by a Spanish University (Pompeu Fabra). The purpose of the project is to study the genetic differences and similarities between groups of people, races, nations, etc. in the world. The Spanish group is the responsible for the study in Western Europe and they found interesting results. In contrast to other continents like Africa or Asia, in Europe there are very little differences between nations. However, there are five groups of people showing a very particular genetic heritage: gypsies, vasques in Spain, Sardinians, Islanders aaaaaaand...Finns!. According to the study, the members of the previously mentioned groups of population, have been breeding amongst themselves for ages due to isolation and almost no inclusion of outside genes occured during all this time. Considering that strong and powerful phenotypes are obtained from mixing very different genotypes (that's a basic theory in genetics: heterosis or the so called "hybrid vigor"), I recommend all Finns to find a foreigner and mix genes with him/her. That's the only way to improve the race. Nazis bastards knew nothing about that, as you can see.
I regret to tell all Finnish girls that my genes are reserved for a Spanish girl but if it comes to help this beautiful country, I can make an exception :-P



In the upper photograph (a beautiful picture, by the way) shows a saami family as they used to live in Nothern Finland. Below you can see the image of two Saami's girls looking shiny, pretty and happy, after tasting Spanish genes.
