SHE IS MONGOLOID INFLUENCIED,BUT SHE IS MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN OTHER EUROPEAN DARK-SKINNED (OLIVE-SKINNED) GIRLS.I LOVE FRECKLES!
How on earth is that mongoloid influenced? You clearly don’t have any idea what you’re talking about
Yeah, we have the same eyes. No doubt about the swedish part.
and face form
I am part Scandinavian, my grandma was Danish. Swedish & Danish have the same similarties.
Yes and no. Danish are closer looking to Northern Germans. Its is the Swedish & Norwegians who have the most similarities.
what is anglo-american ?
Anglo means English (like Anglo-Saxon, Anglo Norman, etc).
Thanks to historically discriminatory immigration policies, most of the people in the USA and other large countries with a white, English speaking majority are at least of partial English ancestry. Outside of the largest metro areas, there is a domminance in the population of people whose ancestry goes back to colonial days. And as you can see on http://www.dalhousielodge.org/Thesis/scotstonc.htm
According to the United States Historical Census Data Base (USHCDB) (2002), the ethnic populations in the American Colonies of 1775 were:
English 48.7 %
African 20.0 %
Scot-Irish 7.8 %
German 6.9 %
Scottish 6.6 %
Dutch 2.7 %
French 1.4 %
Swedish 0.6 %
Other 5.3 %
(NOTE: Combined, the total of Scots and Scot-Irish in this census is 14.4%.)
Today the Germans outnumber all British isles groups. Most English decendents have German ancestry. Despite the various Anti Germans of the past who wrote articles trying to lessen the amount of Germans that actualy arrived.
Also the Anglo term doesn’t really exist and is outdated. Studies have shown little Anglo influence in the British isles. The British infact came from Spanish celts not Anglos.
If you include Irish in the British Isles then these populations outnumber Germans. Germans are the most numerous ethnicity, followed by Irish but I think English is a very understated ethnicity in the US.
A stupid and outdated term the British are not really Anglos. Study shows British came from Spain and had little Anglo influence. The myth that Brits are mostly of Anglo stock is one of the largest myths of the modern age. How anyone believed the British were Anglo is beyond me, the British are less fair than the other Germanic peoples (Dutch, Scandinavians, Northern Germans etc). The British have always looked more Southern Euro than they ever have Germanic. The fact that they came from Spain originaly shows just why they look so different from other Germancis

Erik those genetic studies linking the British Isles to Spain are outdated. You need to check up on the latest genetic studies. The theory that people came from the Iberian refuge during the last ice age has been disproven. It was presumed because most Western European men (not just Spanish and British) had Y chromosome R1b that they were all from the same area. It has now been shown that R1b is too young to come from the ice age. Also the subclades that are in Spain are different than the ones in the British Isles. R1b is also common in the Netherlands and Germany. R1b is also common in Western Norway. There is a new study called The People of the British Isles Project which will reveal new and more up-to-date information on the genetics of Britain.
http://www.peopleofthebritishisles.org/ Britain’s population had multiple sources from neighbouring countries.
Personally I would love to have a Spanish connection especially to Ireland which is where my origins are but this doesn’t seem to be the case as the subclade of R1b in Ireland and Spain are different.
However, way in which these people came to the north-west could pass through Iberia and general haplogrioup R1b M-269 decreases to the east. reaching the highest concentration in the Atlantic Coast.

Thanks. i’m familiar with this site. Unless smth new has been added recently :)
Funny I thought she was of Russian or Eastern Euro descent. She definitely looks like she is…
What’s the Anglo American about?
She never mentioned anything other than Swedish + Pennsylvanian Dutch.
