Here is a simplified version of my previous videos on Iranian genetics. This is for those individuals who do not have a strong background in population genetics and want to know the very basics of Iran's genetic stability. In total there is 90 to 95% genetic continuity in Iran since the Iron Age, this is contrary to the foolish statements made by individuals such as Jason Reza Jorjani and those associated with White Nationalism. The said individuals claim that Iranians in the past were genetically close to Germanics and Nordics, however, this is very much a fallacy and not at all in accordance with reality. Here is my own modified PCA based on that of Davidski from Eurogenes: [ Ссылка ]. To access all articles behind a paywall, please post the doi here: [ Ссылка ].
