Analyzing historic connections
Discover the modern populations where your genetic signature is also found—revealing where similar DNA patterns exist across contemporary communities worldwide.
This report shows where your genetic signature is ALSO found among contemporary populations. It does NOT indicate that you are "from" these places or that these are your ancestors.
Genetic similarity can result from many factors: shared ancient ancestors, convergent evolution, or similar population histories. Use these results as one piece of information alongside family history and cultural knowledge—not as proof of heritage.
What this report reveals about your genetic patterns
The Modern Genetic Connections report analyzes where your genetic signature appears among contemporary populations worldwide. Unlike ancient ancestry reports that compare to archaeological samples, this analysis reveals genetic patterns shared with modern populations.
The genetic makeup of an individual is the result of inherited genes from their ancestors. By conducting DNA analysis, we can identify where similar genetic patterns exist today—providing context for understanding your heritage within the tapestry of human diversity.
Remember: High similarity to a population means your DNA shares patterns with that group. It does NOT prove ancestry or heritage from that specific location.
% = share of your segments classified to this reference Why do reports differ?
These modern populations show the highest genetic similarity to your DNA. Each represents a contemporary community where similar genetic patterns exist today—revealing connections that span continents and cultures.
Your DNA shows 33.7% similarity to the Pakistan population. This indicates that your genetic patterns share significant overlap with individuals from this contemporary community. Genetic similarity can result from shared ancestral origins, historical migrations, or parallel population histories.

These connections represent genetic patterns shared between you and modern populations. High similarity indicates that your DNA contains segments that are also common in these contemporary communities. This can reflect shared ancestral origins, historical migrations, or convergent population histories—but it does not prove direct ancestry or heritage from these specific locations.
Your genetic similarity spans multiple continents and regions. Each region below represents contemporary populations where your DNA patterns are found today—revealing the global reach of your genetic connections.
Diverse populations spanning from the Atlantic to the Urals, reflecting millennia of migrations, cultural exchanges, and genetic mixing across the continent.
Vast and diverse populations from the Middle East to the Pacific, representing some of the world's oldest civilizations and most complex genetic diversity.
The continent with the greatest human genetic diversity, home to populations representing the deepest branches of human genetic history.
These regional connections reflect where your genetic patterns are found among contemporary populations. Higher percentages indicate more shared genetic segments with populations in that region. Remember that genetic similarity does not prove direct ancestry—it reflects shared patterns that can result from many historical factors including migrations, trade, and shared deep ancestors.
Every chromosome in your body tells a story. The segments of DNA you inherited from countless generations carry signatures that connect you to specific modern populations. Below, explore these connections through detailed chromosome analysis—the molecular evidence of your genetic similarity to contemporary communities worldwide.
This view shows chromosome-segment similarity to modern populations. Percentages represent genetic similarity, not exact ancestry fractions.
Explore how your DNA segments connect to ancient samples across all chromosomes. The ribbons show similarity matches - thicker ribbons indicate stronger similarity signal.

Chromosome browser data by country is not available for this sample.
Your genetic similarity spans continents and cultures. The geographic distribution of your connections reveals patterns that reflect humanity's shared history—migrations, trade, and the interweaving of populations across the globe.
Additional populations from around the world contribute to the global genetic tapestry, reflecting humanity's interconnected history.
The geographic distribution of your genetic connections reflects the interconnected nature of human populations. No single region defines your heritage—instead, your DNA shows patterns shared across multiple continents, revealing the complex tapestry of human migration and genetic exchange that has shaped our species. These connections remind us that genetic similarity transcends modern borders and reflects deep historical relationships between populations.
Explore all modern populations where your genetic patterns are found. Search, filter, and sort to discover the full scope of your genetic connections across contemporary communities worldwide.
| Population | Region | Similarity | Actions |

| Pakistan | Asia | 33.71% | |
| Ethiopia | Africa | 28.00% | |
| Estonia | Europe | 22.03% | |
| Russia | Europe | 16.26% |
Use the search box to find specific populations by name. Filter by region to focus on particular geographic areas. Sort by percentage to see your strongest or weakest connections, or by name for alphabetical browsing. Click "Details" on any population to learn more about that connection.
Understanding genetic similarity results can be complex. Our AI assistant helps you make sense of your connections, explaining what your results mean and placing them in contemporary context. Ask questions, explore patterns, and discover the stories hidden in your genes.
This AI analysis uses only region names and percentages visible on this page. No additional data or personal information is included.

Advanced DNA analysis techniques allow us to compare your genetic segments against reference panels from modern populations worldwide. Here's how we connect the dots between your DNA and contemporary communities.
We analyze your DNA segments and compare them against reference panels from modern populations worldwide, identifying where similar genetic patterns exist today.
High similarity to a population indicates shared genetic patterns. This can result from many factors beyond direct ancestry—including parallel evolution or shared deep ancestors.
Percentages reflect how much your DNA patterns overlap with reference populations. Higher values indicate more shared genetic segments, not "more ancestry."
Results should be interpreted alongside family history, cultural knowledge, and other ancestry information—not as standalone proof of heritage.
"Genetic similarity reveals patterns of shared human heritage—connections that transcend borders and remind us of our common origins."
Genetic similarity analysis is a nuanced field, and interpreting results requires careful consideration. Below are answers to common questions that will help you understand what your results mean—and what they don't.
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science."

A snapshot of your genetic similarity to modern populations—share your global connections with others.
DNAGENICS
The genetic patterns you've discovered in this report connect you to communities across the globe. These similarities reflect the shared journey of humanity—migrations, exchanges, and the interweaving of populations over thousands of years. You are part of a vast, interconnected human family, and these results are one window into understanding that connection.
