Italy and Greece are the Greeks and Romans. Germany had nothing to do with it. It's like if Arabs kept claiming ancient Persia just because they're MENA. It doesn't work. Black Americans don't get to claim Egypt so why should Estonia claim Rome?
The whole "We're all Europeans" doesn't work as an argument. Black Americans don't get to claim Egypt.
>>18128569For at least 500 years after the collapse of the Western Roman empire there were a lot of attempts to restore the true Roman empire. Theodoric, Justinian, Charlemagne. It eventually just became a meme after that. The fucking French revolution claimed to be restoring Rome.
>>18128569yeah right, greece and rome piggybacked off of 3000 years of egyptian's work, so why not. everything seemed to appear just after somebody's visit to alexandria. sounds like copypasta
>>18129434Arabs piggyback off of Egypt. They aren't African but think they have more a right to claim Africa than Black Americans do
>>18129546that may be the case, i sure don't know. i think the egyptians came out of the sahara when it dried up, found some wet land by the river and set up camp. where they're from before that, who knows. dna studies seem to be a lot of misinfo, cherry picking, or some long term sales pitch. long enough ago that the "survivor bias" might be the core samples now. so who knows. just make some shit up and get some "experts" to agree
>>18128569Part of the European heritage. And Germany later was the Holy Roman Empire. >Yes. Emperor was approved by the Pope of the ROMAN Catholic Church. Charlemagne was crowned Emperor of the ROMANS>See above, + Empire controlled Rome at various points. >Large multinational state ruled by one major ethnicity in Central Europe.That's not to say Germans are the inheritors of the Romans, but the Romans are part of the European heritage for all European peoples, specially Western Europeans, and specially South Western Europeans.
>>18128569Estonians and Romans share a ton of DNA and the only meaningful difference in their DNA is admixture ratios.The Romans themselves were 75% EEF 25% Steppe.The Estonians are 30% EEF and 45% steppe (25% WHG)That is 50% genomic overlap.This is not comparable to MENA who are ALL sub 35% EEF/Steppe/WHG. Most MENA are only 15-20% EEF with negligible Steppe, that is at the absolute best 15% less genomic overlap with Romans than Estonians.>black AmericansBlack Americans share no overlap with any Egyptians whatsoever being completely different racially.black Americans see the black skin of East Africans and think "they black africans like me" unaware that East Africans like Sudanese and Ethiopians are closer to Eurasians than to Niger-Congo (the root population of black Americans).Black Americans actually share more DNA through their European admixture with ancient Egypt than through their african admixture and Europeans and Egyptians have a crossover of about 15-20% given ancient Egypt's EEF (Anatolian).FYI the similarities between Europeans only become more extreme outside of outliers like Estonians or Finns.Swedes for example share 2/3 of their genome with Romans.
>>18130679a plenty of Romans were closer to MENAs than to estonians, let alone Greeks
