Romanians will be surprised by a recent study that has established their ancestry based on DNA.
Pioneering DNA research covering Bulgaria, northern Macedonia, Serbia, Romania, Albania and Greece has led to startling discoveries about the genetic make-up of the Balkan population, Novinite reports.
The Romanian genome is 50-60 percent Slavic in origin, similar to Balkan countries such as Bulgaria and Croatia
The research, a collaboration between Serbian, Spanish and American scientists, sheds light on the prevalence of Slavic genes in the region.
And it’s all for nothing. According to the results, published by the Serbian agency Tanjug, Bulgarians, Romanians and Croats have the highest concentration of Slavic genes. In contrast, Greeks have the lowest concentration of this genetic heritage, ranging from 4 to 20 percent.
There are several theories among the Romanians as to where they actually originated, but the state theory is that the Romanians of Transylvania were inhabitants of the former Roman Dacia, descendants of Romanised Dacians and Roman settlers, and are therefore the ancestral inhabitants of Transylvania.
However, after the latest findings, Romanians may reconsider their genealogy, because it seems that the Dacian-Romanian theory, which has been promoted for decades, based on the affinity between Romance and Latin, has failed.
The primary aim of the study was to show the continuity of genetic traits between modern Balkan inhabitants and ancient populations from the Bronze Age, reflecting two millennia of genetic population shifts and migration patterns.
As the site states:
‘This comprehensive analysis not only sheds light on the distribution of Slavic genetic heritage, but also provides insights into the complex genetic composition and historical migrations that shaped the different populations of the Balkans.
It seems that the Romanian origin theory, questioned by many, has to face new facts.

As we wrote a few days ago, a new Romanian proposal would split Szeklerland in two, details HERE.
What a nonsense conclusion from the article’s author! Slavs reach Carpathian basin almost half of millennia before the magyars, still the magyars “had enough time” to change their genome from turcic/mongolic into a common SE european one. The slavs initially and later the Bulgarians ruled over the territories from north Danube for centuries. Other genetic studies say that the genotype in this area is homogenous.
What a pathetic attempt to use for political purposes a scientific study in 21st century when history is just that: history ?!
When will the hungarian people cease to be an antagonistic one which is counterproductive for everyone in that area, but especially for them.
I am not surprised. Hungary is surrounded by Slavic people who, mildly put, don’t really like us.
The study used just one sample from a single human being from the Romanian territory (Ploiești). The total sample size for the study was 145 (people) for the ancient genome and 37 (people) for the modern day. The 37 people chosen for the study were all male Serbs form Serbia (19), Montenegro (7), Croatia (5), North Macedonia (1). As such, the data obtained from a single men from the period 991-1025 CE is statistically (and practically) irrelevant for all the population inhabiting the Romanian territory. The data that I cited and the article it self can be consulted here: https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(23)01135-2?

What is most interesting is that Hungarians genetically have exactly the same amount of Slavic origins as Romanians. An information easily found online so I fail to see the point this article is trying to make.
Slavic DNA lmao ,slavic term is an exonym itself of latin or greek origin ,thats how the romans during Justinian dynasty were calling their barbarian servants and thats how slavs were invented ,Justinian dynasty was itself thraco dacian origin thraco-roman dynasty from emperor Leo i who was a thraco dacian from the thracian/dacian bessian tribe .Thracians including thraco dacians branch had the so called slavic DNA that existed in balcan area sinc ebefore the thracian/dacian cultures and kingdoms and thracians were related to the baltic tribes and other east european bronze age populations .Romanians are not formed from romans making sex with thracians /getians/dacian,odrysians etc thracian tribes .Romanians are formed from thracians under latin incluence and thracians adopting latin/romance language and later assimilating part of the nomads pagan pagans that came from baltic ,ukraine and south russia of today area,those assimilated so called with exonym slavs .Romanians are thraco-romans /vlachs with some assimilated 7 th century migrationists ,so called slavs gettign assimilated by romance latin speaking thraco-romans while other thraco-romans got assimilated by so called slavs in south Danube and today in south Danueb thraoc-romans vlachs are minority who speak a language similater to romanians and are called aromanians,istro-romanians,magleno-romanians /vlachs etc .Important to remeber that slav term is exonym from romans .Romanians were also called vlachs or wallachs,the term vlachs and variations of the term that is also exonym term of celtic origin and is how the germanics were calling the romans and latin/roman speakers before the apparition of the so called slavs .Slavism of today in Moscow propaganda interpretations is dumb full of bullcrap invented to empower the Moskovian imperialism using dumb bulgarians and serbs of today to attack romanians .Romanians /thraco-romans /vlachs ..The first caesars/czars/tsars of the slavs were thraco-romans /vlachs, the so called Vlacho- Bulgar empire that was also called simply Wallachia in the arab contemporary chronicles was basically romans and slavs backed by Rome .Ionita Caloian the tsar was roman,his native language was romance/vlach and he had support from Rome to rule and to take Constantinople .The term Tsar or Czar comes from Rome and means caesar,the so called slavs served the romans ,basically the original slavism was invented by romans .Take it easy with sucking Pootins ballz fools.
Slavic is an acquired linguistic concept. Genetics is a scientific, inherited concept. There is no Slavic genetics.
“Colors are a social construction, and because there is no universal consensus where orange begins and red ends, I conclude that colors don’t exist.”
Well… Romanians, Hungarians, Bulgarians, Serbs, Croatians, Ukrainians and others are actually more related to each other than any of them to any single branch of the populations that has ever lived in our countries (Thracians, Cumans, Pechenegs, Huns, Bulgars, ancient Magyars etc). And yes, as someone else said it in a previous comment, some Thracian DNA is part of most Slavic populations, which shows early connections between our ancestors. We are all [nationalist] cocktails in this region, but so are others.
People from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 very concerned with their neighbours. Hungarians some synthetic nation with German history, Slav blood and Mongolian mentality. Your studies don’t matter. Romanians have the land Hungarians have some stories.
