    Very few Mexicans actually have "Aztec" ancestry, most people descend from the specific indigenous groups of the region or state and the Aztec were actually not even than numerous to begin and mostly inhabited the very central parts of what is now Mexico in the valley that surrounds Mexico City, people from the Yucatan peninsula and the surrounding states descend from the Yucatec Maya, people from the Guatemala border descend from the Kiiche Maya, in Oaxaca they descend from the Zapotec, Mazateca and Mixtec peoples, in Michoacan from the Tarascos/Purepecha, in Northern Mexico from tribes like the Raraumuri or Yoreme.

    Saying Aztec is like saying Germanic, it can mean the Mexica of Tenochtitlan who were the ones who got their "Aztec Empire" toppled by Cortes or it can mean the Nahua people (the actual name of their ethnic group) who were a nomadic group of people who came from what is now the US southwest and northern Mexico centuries or even millennia ago and settled in modern Central Mexico that includes other civilizations that preceded the Mexica like the Toltecs (though is debated if they were exclusively Nahua or rather than a Multi-Ethnic Empire) and modern people of the Nahua ethnic group, it can also be any of the 7 tribes of the myth of Aztlan (the Mexica which most would think of when they think of the word Aztec, the Xochimilca, the Acolhua who were the former masters of the Mexica before their rebellion and formation of their empire, the Tlahuica, the Tlaxcalteca who were sworn enemies of the Mexica and allied with Cortes and the Spanish Empire being basically the main colonial army, the Tepaneca and the Chalca).

    How is the Viking gene different from any of nordic person?

    Also why are you all so surprised finding out you have some "Viking" genes. Angles were relatives to Danes and they together with Saxons, Jutes and Dutch invaded Britain and settled there - creating 7 kimgdoms.

    Few centuries later Danes conquered most of England and Saxons pushed them back. Eventually they have been swallowed by normans in 1066. And normans were again, descendants of local french and norse people who settled in normandy.

    Centuries later UK invaded world basically. So it's kinda obvious that especially people coming directly from English based colonies have some % of genes coming from scandinavia.

    You have no way to trace your ancestry for that far back.

    And that statement is basically the same as that woman we made a surgery for her nose for her children to inherit that trait.

    Yup, that’s an american right here.

    Is it time to start calling these Ancestry places "Trolls" yet?

    I love the “Viking blood stuff” because most of the people who lived in Scandinavia were not Viking’s. Viking isn’t a ethnicity or race it’s a job title lol would be like me as an English person saying I have “pirate blood”.

    In The Land of High Fructose Corn Syrup, the warrior “physic” is pretty rare anyway. Ask the leaders of our Gestapo, who were sobbing into their brownshirts recently over their incel recruits’ absolute lack of physical fitness.

    Ot appears they are under the impression that genes comes in continental blocks. Like, it looks like they think EVERY person in France got the same stock of genes, every people on the Mediterranium got the same stock of genes ans so on. Like that wouldn't be sign of a dangerous level of inbreeding and it would show in the fenotype of a person. They surely know nothing about genetics for being the single most eugenetic-fixated country on earth
