Cyrillic isn't more "Slavic" than latin - it's literally Bulgarian version of Greek alphabet. Greek isn't Slavic and Bulgarian is barely Slavic. There are literally no objective pros of using cyrillic. Meantime nations who are using it are worse in comparison to their latin counterparts by all metrics: from hiv to abortion to just being poorer.So, why keep it?

Ataturk was wise to ditch the Arabic script and introduce the Latin alphabet during the state-building efforts of the modern secular state of Turkey. Reminder that the average Turk today will struggle with reading Ottoman Turkish from 300 years ago even if the text is transliterated from Arabic script to Latin script while Romanians have no issue reading Romanian from 500 years ago once the Cyrillic script has been transliterated to Latin script.

Reality is that West Slavic countries are places to live and prospere on level beyond any cyrillic alphabet country. That's the matter of fact, not opinion.
>>544599517Cope. You’re basically just a Greek-Bulgarian Slav; your DNA has a higher percentage of Greek admixture than Poles’ does, and you use an alphabet created by a Bulgarian, or a Greek, for that matter. Poles have more Illyrian blood and a stronger influence from Latin culture, stemming from Rome, because we’re geographically closer to Italy. You’re a Greek.

You, however, have Arab/Anatolian blood, while I do not, because that Greek-Anatolian admixture arrived later. And here’s a piece of advice: don’t look at genealogy solely through the lens of haplogroups, because that doesn’t represent the full picture of your DNA.
>>544597030No ty bro
Ah and btw, the westeners will never look at you as one of theirs, regardless of your economics. And Russians, true they are currently poor and you can make fun of them for starting stupid wars, but there will never ever be a slavic (which is simply a language construct) country coming close to Russian achievements in science or literature/arts in general, and neither with even half the global impact they have (had)
>>544600673>you would need to figure out new letters for Russians and Bulgarians for your idea, like, š, đ, č, ć, žSomething that was already done centuries ago by west Slavs. Some quirks of Polish orthography (e.g. distinction between rz and ż) came from times when dinstinction between Polish and Ruthenian languages were blurry. I'm sure Ukrainians could start using latin alphabet with some Polish signs without any preparation. Russians could too actually.

After all, they decid to write their language with grfeek alphabet instead. The only symbols from glagolitsa which came to cyrillic is probaly Ш and Щ.

>>544601870No you're not, that's not what that means.

>>544601996Bosnians, Croats and Serbs all did it and still do.
>>544602039No, we don't. But your Illyrian larping is even worse, since you claim and act as if you were the only Illyrian tribe, when there were hundreds of swarthy paleo-balkan tribes who got bleached by Slavic invasions.There are ofc Illyrian Serbs, and Illyrian admixture in Serbia, Croatia and Muslims. But there's also Slavic admixture and Anatolian admixture in Albania, and Slavic Albanians who'd probably cluster with Serbs and not Albanians. South Serbia is more Illyrian than Slavic.
>>544601785I have some Illyrian admixture; it’s not that I’m a textbook Illyrian. Without the Illyrian admixture, I would be more northern, closer to the Balts. You’re an imbecile if u dont get it. You pop up with a table showing genetic distance to an Illyrian, and you expect me to rank first, even though I’ve stated that I have Illyrian admixture as an addition to my Balto-Slavic genetic profile? Arguing with morons. Go suck some Russian sperm, they’ve got it all prepped for you, you Greek
>>544602121Not really as we speak an Illyrian descendant or closley related language.You are right, there are some Slavs left in Albania like Rigels Rajku.
>>544602226Dude, shut the fuck up. You are not a pole, and you're too low IQ to interpret what you're seeing. Use ai, since you're not intelligent enough.

>>544597030I will be clear, I do not think cyrilic supperior to latin. Nor inferrior. I just don't like what arrogant scumbag you are. Nothing better than Russians.
>>544602285That does not mean Illyrian == Albanian, just like I can't claim other Slavic tribes are Serbian just because we are both Slavic. Poland isn't Serbian, Ukraine isn't Serbian, even though my ancestors are from Ukraine and neighbored modern Poland. I can't claim Russia, that's not how that works. You were a paleo-balkan tribe in what was called illyrium, but everyone else in the Balkans has that same admixture, especially in dalmatia and Montenegro. You are the closest match, but that's just due to the smallest amount of Illyrian.Again, being Illyrian thracian or dacian is not something anyone would ever be proud of, so I don't care to argue this. I'd much rather have 0% and wish my ancestors never left for Balkans. As I said, there was almost no difference between Paleo-balkaners and Anatolians before Slavic conquest
>>544602344Of course, but it is reliable if the prompt is right. My prompt is shown in the picture, and it is a neutral connection/leaning towards making it agree with the opposite of what it said. Claiming poles are Illyrian is such an absurd claim that this is the first time I'm reading it, and it's because the guy is literally Albanian
>>544602442>but that's just due to the smallest amount of Illyrian.Smallest amount of Slavic*
>>544597030> it's literally Bulgarian version of Greek alphabetyeah, and?so is latin. what's the fucking issue? we all write in english here, regardless. should the saudis also use latin even if they swim in oil money? your argument makes no sense. alphabet and language is what defines us. it was made by our guys specifically for our people. other slavic nations modified it for their needs as well. nothing wrong with that.> why keep it?why not. we're good.
>>544602442We probably descend from the Illyrians who lived in South Serbia, Kosovo and Macedonia. Hence why haplogroup E-V13 is so common despite it being Dacian. Dacians intruded into these parts.>Again, being Illyrian thracian or dacian is not something anyone would ever be proud of, so I don't care to argue this. I'd much rather have 0% and wish my ancestors never left for Balkans. As I said, there was almost no difference between Paleo-balkaners and Anatolians before Slavic conquestSo Bosnians, Slovenians and Croats are your superiors genetically considering they have less Paleo Balkan blood. And so are Poles, Ukrainains, Czechs and Slovaks.
>>544602481He is onto something. There is some Paleo-Balkan admixture in all Slavs but that is from Dacians. Putin for example has haplogroup E-V13. Except a few celtic clades it is pretty much all Dacian in Europe today.
>>544602530Bosnians is a regional term. Bosnian Serbs are the most slavic. Vojvodina Serbs have about the same as northern Croats in slavonia and central Croatia, while Dalmatia, Istria, Montenegro and Southern Serbia have the most.Slovenians are my superiors in every metric, lol, as they are yours, and as I am yours. The differences between Croatia and Serbia are regional, i.e. almost none between Slavonia and Vojvodina, Montenegro and Dalmatia, and republika srpska and Croatia. Southern Serbia is the exception and the worst, because it clusters closest to Albanians and Bulgarians, and is more paleo-balkan than Slavic.
>>544602570That's from Serb migrations to Russia and Ukraine throughout history, but everyone has almost everything, this is not particularly surprising.We had 2 different states in modern Russia, even as recently as 2 centuries ago. One called new Serbia. Again, poles have no connection to illyria, nor should they wish to.
>>544602625Bosnians Serbs have substantial Vlach admixture compared to Bosnian Muslims. Are the Bosnian Serbs inferior to Bosnian Muslims? If you put together all Serbian regions, and create an average it will have more Paleo-Balkan blood than all croat regions put together to an average.Do you admit, that the average Bosnian-Muslim and Croat is superior to the average Serb, on a genetic level?
>>544602698>>544602570https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Serbia_(historical_province)
>>544602521>yeah, and?>so is latin.That's the point: why keep both, when one proved to develop societies much better than another?
>>544602698No it is endemic to all Slavs. Dacians went far it seems. What do you think about this Montenegrin Serb leaer in new Serbia's pseudonymhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jovan_Albanez
Northern Italians have more Illyrian blood than Albanians do. The entire Balkan region has an Anatolian admixture. There has been an influx of genes from Anatolia, everyone has it, just to varying degrees, and that includes Italians, especially those from the south
>>544597030
>>544602712They don't have substantial vlach admixture, just more than Bosnian Muslims. Bosnian Serbs are more Slavic than Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats.Bosnian Serbs are almost identical to Bosnian Muslims, and I don't care to tell you about the superiority or inferiority of someone almost genetically identical.>If you put together all Serbian regions, and create an average it will have more Paleo-Balkan blood than all croat regions put together to an average.Not if you include Herzegovina.>Do you admit, that the average Bosnian-Muslim and Croat is superior to the average Serb, on a genetic level?Croats, yes, Bosnian Muslims, no, since outside of Sarajevo they are less Slavic than Serbs outside of Vojvodina and Republika Srpska and central Serbia. They live in Montenegro and Southern Serbia too, which is where their Paleo Balkan peaks.. Bosnian Muslims and Serbs also have no Germanic, while Serbs do, so that's another reason.But we measure superiority in different ways, historical achievements and economic development (though not 1:1)
>>544602712>>544602887
>>544602887>Serbs outside of Vojvodina and Republika Srpska and central Serbia.Inside*
>>544602823They don't have Illyrian blood. It is just that their distrubution of bronze age era admixture resembles Illyrians more than that of Albanians. This is because we have additional Dacian, Anatolian and Slavic admixture.If you make a half Albanian half German he woud be closest to Serbs. He still has more Albanian and German blood than he has Serbian which would be none.
>>544602625> Southern Serbia is the exception and the worst, because it clusters closest to Albanians and BulgariansI'd say Southern Serbia is the best, kek.don't mind me, keep your mental gymnastics on who's the purest slav. it's entertaining.

>>544602823That's not even Illyrian, do you even know what illyria is? Now I'm thinking, maybe you're we wuzzing because you think Illyrian is something to be proud of.
>>544603063Best in what way? Swarthiest, least economically developed, a complete and utter dump>keep your mental gymnastics on who's the purest slav. it's entertaining.You're more Paleo-balkan and Anatolian than Slavic (>>544601353), that's not the case for Serbs and Croats, especially in Vojvodina and Bosnia. You're also not a Slavic tribe, but a Turkic tribe (>>544601385 and >>544601542), and your Slavic admixture is from Serbs and Croats. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulgars)
>>544603184>>544603063
>>544602887No, Bosnian Muslims are more Slavic.>Not if you include Herzegovina.If you do it based on population density yes. Bulgarians are more accomplished than Serbs in everything tho too and they are less Slavic.
>>544599749>jhwtp
>>544603242Nope, Bosnian Muslims (as a whole) are less Slavic than Bosnian Serbs, since they live in southern Serbia and Montenegro too, and not just Sarajevo. The entire western half of Bosnia is Bosnian Serbs, southern Croats.
>>544602823That Serb is an idiot, I swear, a genetic illiterate. We have no Illyrian admixture (which is why we practice Catholicism and instead use the Latin alphabet). Illyrian ancestry is closely linked to an "Italic" component, a pure strain, free from the Levantine admixture that only appeared later, during the Roman Empire and its conquest of the Eastern Mediterranean. He talks about Serbian migrations to the north without even knowing when the Illyrians or Thracians lived, we’re talking about the Bronze Age here. People who lived in that region, Celto-Illyrians, migrated through the Moravian Gate, and they shaped the genetic makeup of the populations that would later become the Slavs. Our identity is deeply rooted in the Moravian Gate and the cultural migrations that flowed from there, from Catholicism to the Latin alphabet. That is the source of what we recognize as Polish today. Meanwhile, Greece and the Thracians influenced the genetic and cultural profile of the Eastern Slavs, bringing with them the Cyrillic alphabet and Greek Orthodoxy.

>>544603392>He talks about Serbian migrations to the north without even knowing when the Illyrians or Thracians lived, we’re talking about the Bronze Age here. People who lived in that region,Now you're larping as Italians and admitting you have no Illyrian after lying about it earlier?

>>544603504I’m not LARPing as an Italian. I wouldn’t want to, because I lack the Levantine blood that all of you in Southeastern Europe possess. You were flooded with Anatolian sperm, and now, whenever I point out the connection between early Balto-Slavs and the Illyrians, who shared a genetic profile similar to that of the Italic Etruscans (before the Anatolian admixture), you get all butt-hurt that I’d dare show you this using genetic calculators
>>544603645But there are way more southern Serb, and mainland Serbs in general than there are sanjakis. And there are barely any of these herzegovinans you speak of who are super high slavic.
>>544603732No, there are not more southern Serbs than there are Bosnian Muslims outside of Bosnia, it's roughly the same percentage (20%). Again, were talking ethnicities here, not political entities. Serbs were the majority in Bosnia until 1961.
It comes from St. Cyril of Greece who travelled to Russia early on and gave them their alphabet, based on the Greek alphabet. It is that way because St. Cyril was early to Russia. It works the same way as when the French were first to Vietnam. Way in far off Indo-China they use a language based on what the Romans created. Hats off to Rome and their eternal influence on our lives.

>>544604353You're not understanding the basic concept that even the Albanian does.>While your perspective aligns with common observations from older or raw global autosomal distance models (like certain G25 setups), recent high-resolution archaeogenetic studies have clarified the exact genetic relationship between ancient Illyrians, modern North Italians, and modern Balkan populations.>The idea that North Italians are the closest modern population to ancient Illyrians is partially true in terms of overall autosomal "pseudo-closeness," but genetically misleading regarding actual direct lineage and continuity.>If you run a basic Euclidean genetic distance calculator (like Global25 or IllustrativeDNA), Northern Italians frequently plot very close to, or even right on top of, Iron Age Western Balkan (Illyrian) samples. However, geneticists attribute this to statistical drift and unrelated ancestral mixtures rather than direct descent>The West Eurasian Cline: Both ancient Illyrians and modern North Italians share a similar broad ratio of Early European Farmer (EEF) and Western Steppe Herder (WSH) ancestry>The Slavic Shift: Modern Western Balkan populations (such as Croats, Serbs, and Bosnians) experienced a massive genetic shift during the 6th–7th century due to Slavic migrations, which brought heavy Northern European-like ancestry. This pulled modern Balkanites "northward" on PCA plots>The Italian Exception: Northern Italy did not receive significant Slavic input, nor did it receive the heavy post-Iron Age Eastern Mediterranean/North African admixture seen in Southern Italy. Because Northern Italians remained relatively stable on the European genetic cline, they mathematically "mirror" what Central Europe and the Northern Balkans looked like before the Slavic migrations.

>>544599547SPQR, sclavaenus!
>>544604538Are Northern Italians, de facto, Illyrians? It’s unclear, but they are the closest relatives to the Illyrians among all European peoples. Your Serbian genetic profile has acquired a Greek admixture-one that has skewed your profile to such an extent that Northern Italians actually appear closer to those ancient Illyrians than you do. My point is that genetic calculators detect an "Illyro-Italic" component that matches my own profile; that is where I look for the source of my southern admixture-not in some Serbian ancestor who arrived five centuries ago and had descendants. How absurd is that?
>>544604944You're so dumb, it's unbelievable, you're looping around the same misunderstanding of a basic concept.
>schizo pseudopatriotic pole spammer meets the schizo pseudopatriotic vojvodina spammersovl
>>544605027Are you still going to insist that I don’t have any Illyrian admixture, even though you can see that I do according to several calculators? So, I don’t have any at all, is that what you’re saying?
>>544599749Why would you even drink water when you have sprite
>>544605088Again, this does not mean you have Illyrian admixture - in fact you don't, it just means that when you compare it to something like levantine, fenno-uralic, Caucasian, continetial Celtic, insular Celtic, Greek and so on... you'll have a smaller distance to Illyrians and Greeks, BECAUSE OF SERBS AND CROATS... It doesn't mean you have any Illyrian blood, certainly not 16%! >The connection between Illyrians and Poland in genetic and historical contexts is actually the exact reverse: early Slavs from the region of Poland and Western Ukraine migrated south and left a massive genetic impact on the Balkans, not the other way around >>544601594>>544601542

>>544604886> climate changeoh, wow... > sorry for your lack of intelligenceit's lack of serbian "education", I'm afraid. a very common thing outside Serbia, lol.
>>544605322Don't you understand that a pure Illyrian sample didn't contain a single gram of Balto-Slavic ancestry? What does that have to do with you Serbs and Croats? I’m talking about a pure Iron Age Illyrian sample here. If I were checking whether I’m closer to you—a Serb or a Croat—or to a Bronze Age Illyrian, then your Balto-Slavic admixture would matter, and you’d be closer to me. Do you think this Illyrian sample is the same as a modern-day Albanian? Albanians have a massive amount of Anatolian admixture that the Illyrians didn't have; they are completely different today
>>544605737After the fall of the byzantine empire and the Serbian empire, the only Orthodox country with any meaningful influence was Russia, and Russia could not compete against the entirety of the Catholic church, nor did it have the same the funds or conditions for other things downstream from that like education and enlightenment

>>544606688We have two different perspectives. You claim I’m Albanian simply because I mention the Illyrians, equating the Illyrians with modern-day Albanians, perhaps influenced by the political situation in the Balkans or certain nationalist views. I, on the other hand, see an Illyrian admixture, but I do not equate it with an Albanian one. As I pointed out in my previous posts, the genetic profile closest to that of the Illyrians (excluding any Greek ancestry) is actually found among Northern Italians; that is where I look for the origins. Regardless, it’s not that important, I’ve spent enough time poring over G25 calculators and genetic maps to discern a subtle "Etruscan-Italic-Illyrian" admixture. It could even be a "Roman Iron Age" admixture, which might explain why we see Catholicism and the Latin alphabet in Poland, rather than Greek Orthodoxy and the Cyrillic script. Essentially, there were different cultural sources for the West and East Slavs, as well as different channels for cultural exchange: for the East Slavs, it involved the Thracians (a genetic blend of Illyrian and Greek, to put it simply), while for the West Slavs, it came via the Moravian Gate, through the Czech lands and into Poland, from Italy and the continental Celts. I’m not going to change my mind, and neither are you. There’s no point in arguing; we’re both convinced that we’re right.
>>544608204modern greek, beacuse modern greeks have anatolian blood
How does a slav get filtered by Cyrillic, is it a side effect of Catholicism?

>>544608204>>544608278I'm not even going to read that, dude. You have no relation to Illyrians, nor did I equate it with Albanians, I actually said very early on that they larp with it as well - that's the equation I made, only an Albanian would wewuz and larp about such backwards people.You have no relation. The algorithm uses overfitting. It doesn't mean any of them have any such blood, it was already explained to you. It has to throw a percentage out of a bunch of unrelated samples. If I put Serbian as target, and added Chinese and Illyrian, I'd be 99% as suchThe distance between Poland and the ancient Illyrian sample is 0.1316. the distance between Serbia and Austria is 0.036. Anything beyond 0.06 is unrelated.
>>544608607>The distance between Poland and the ancient Illyrian sample is 0.1316. the distance between Serbia and Austria is 0.036. Anything beyond 0.06 is unrelated.If my distance to a pure WHG representative is [check picrel], does that mean I have no WHG admixture? Can you determine whether someone has a particular admixture based only on this distance? Well, it turns out I do, an average of 16% WHG admixture, despite such a massive distance to the reference sample
Hey Slavs, can you temporarily pause your bickering a bit? Take a look at this first.

>>544608821Again, you have no Illyrian admixture, flip-flopped between admitting you don't and delusionally claiming you do, and most importantly, provided no evidence for such a claim - the algorithm uses overfitting and does not mean anything. I can enter German and Albanian, and end up with 51% German, because Serbs are more related to Germans than to Albanians. You added unrelated peoples, so the overfitting algorithm goes spastic and shits out numbers.You also posted a completely unrelated map when you were speaking of Illyrians, so my conclusion is that you want to larp as such because you don't even know what it means or is..I am not entertaining this argument any longer. You are the first Pole I've seen to even make such a claim, and I don't think any Pole would be proud of that.Illyrians were subhumans, not Romans and not Ancient Greeks.
