The map above, created by eupedia.com, shows the genetic makeup of European countries based on Haplogroups. These groups each share a common ancestor and can be one way of looking at the genetic makeup of a population.
In humans, haplogroups can either be based on Y-DNA which is passed
from father to son or mtDNA which is passed from mother to offspring of
both sexes.
The map above is only based on Y-DNA, thus only shows male
common ancestors not female ones. Moreover, it should obviously not be
used to imply that any country is better than any other. While we there
may be differences between some of us, we are all equal.
