DNA test for ethnic origin and nationality. Determine nationality from photo

A few years ago in the Soviet Union, a lot depended on the nationality of a person, for example, getting a job, or entering a higher educational establishments. Now we live in a democratic country where the nationality of a person essentially does not play any role, as well as throughout the world, because, regardless of the place of birth of a person and his “blood”, everyone has equal rights.

However, the question of nationality is quite interesting, because each person is interested in knowing what kind of person this or that person comes from, or he himself, so in this article we will try to figure out how to determine nationality, all the more, it can be useful, for example, for emigration. There are many ways to determine nationality, consider each of them.

How to determine nationality - the first way

Ask your parents if mom and dad are Kazakhs, then you will belong to this nationality, but it often happens that parents are married different nationality, for example, the mother is Tatar, and the father is Ukrainian. Then you must determine your nationality based on general rules of one or another people, for example, in Russia the nationality is determined by the father, while in Israel the nationality is determined by the mother.

How to determine nationality - the second way

It happens that a person does not know his true parents, for example, was adopted or brought up in orphanage. Then the nationality of this person will depend on his place of residence, following the traditions of this people and knowing perfectly the language of the country in which this person lives. For example, you live in Germany, but your native language- Hebrew, you also honor the traditions of Israel, observe all Jewish holidays, for example, Hanukkah, which means you are a Jew.

How to determine nationality - the third way

By physiological signs, you can determine your nationality, although, most likely, this method can be subjective, not objective, because, for example, if you had a distant great-grandfather Armenian, and your mom and dad are Russians, then you can still manifest facial features inherited from distant relative such as eye color and nose shape. Below are the most common features of certain nationalities.
To begin with, let's recall school biology courses and consider the existing classifications of the race of people, which are determined by the place of residence: for example, dark skin contains more melanin, which protects from the debilitating sun.

Caucasoid race - about half of the world's population belongs to this type. Distinctive features: fair skin, soft or slightly wavy hair, narrow nose, thin lips, eye color may vary. The Caucasian race includes residents of Europe, Armenians, Tajiks, Ukrainians and others.
Negroid race - most often found in Africa and America. People differ in dark skin, wide lips and nose, brown eyes (there are exceptions) and dark curly hair.
The Mongoloid race makes up about 40 percent of the world's population. It is distinguished by a yellowish skin color, a straight forehead, a wide nose and narrow eyes. The Mongoloid race includes the inhabitants of China, Japan, Koreans and other peoples of Asia.
Australoid race - inhabits Australia and the island New Guinea. Is different dark color skin, wide nose, brown eyes and well-developed hairline.

But, thanks to the rapid growth of the world's population, now there has been a mixture of different races, which makes a person unique. It is enough to read about one or another nationality so that one can attribute oneself to it.

In general, it’s not only interesting to study your own or someone else’s nationality, it’s also pretty cool to find out the traditions of certain nationalities, for example, what holidays people celebrate different countries. As you can see, nationality is sometimes difficult to determine, because in modern life people have a lot of "mixed" blood.

We determine the color type of appearance: winter, spring, summer, autumn

How to determine your color type?

Probably, at least once in your life you have heard about the so-called “appearance color type”. And I have already used this term a couple of times in articles on makeup. What kind of thing is this - a color type?

Color type- This is a set of certain signs of a person's appearance, depending on his eye color, hair, skin. And depending on this, you can choose the most suitable colors when choosing clothes or shades of cosmetics. There are 4 types of appearance: winter, spring, summer and autumn. Spring and autumn are warm shades, summer and winter are cold.

To determine which of the 4 types you belong to, you can take an online color type test.

Before that, we wash off all makeup, look at ourselves in the mirror and carefully study the reflection in it. Did everyone remember? And now let's proceed to the test to determine the color type.

What did we see in the mirror?

Appearance color type: winter, spring, summer, autumn

To determine your color type, take this simple test.

1. Which of the following statements suits you best?

The whites of the eyes are pure white

The skin has a bluish tint on the crook of the elbow, on inside wrists and forearms

The joints of the fingers often turn red

In the eyes of golden sparks

2. How do you sunbathe?

I tan quickly, tan color is light or olive

I burn easily, tan shade is light or red

I tan very quickly, the tan color is golden, carrot.

there are no problems with tanning, the tan color is olive-ash.

3. What kind of skin do you have?

transparent, light pink, with a bluish cold tint

light beige, ivory. Warm skin tone

ivory, peach, beige-yellowish, light golden

either light porcelain white or swarthy

4. Shade your blush

bright red or salmon

cold with an olive tint, or not at all

5. What is your hair color? (according to natural hair color)

red, golden, with a copper tint, dark blond. warm colors

light blond, golden, red, chestnut. warm shades

black, dark hair sometimes with a silvery or blue tint

ash, blond hair, light blond, dark blond. Cold tones

6. What is your eye color?

brown, with slight yellowness

black, dark brown, dark green, cold, dark blue

pale, grey, yellowish

light green, amber, light olive, blue

7. What color are your eyebrows and eyelashes?

dark brown, red, with a golden sheen

cold pink, with an olive tint

By the way, it is sometimes difficult to determine the color type. Well, firstly, not everyone can clearly tell if their skin / eyes are warm or cold. Second, there are exceptions to every rule. And they may be you. Thirdly, you may not be “pure”, but a mixed color type. This very often happens due to the mixing of blood of residents of different latitudes and nationalities. As a result, you will be the owner of a unique color type. In this case, you need to decide what type, what tones (cold or warm) prevail in you. And depending on this, choose a makeup palette and clothing colors.

At home, you can also try to determine which color type you belong to. To do this, also wash off all makeup, choose pieces of fabric (or just plain clothes) different shades cold or warm. And gradually apply these tissues to your face. Important! Lighting in the room should be natural, but not direct sunlight. By applying the fabric to the face, you can notice that the face acquires either a certain glow, a fresher look (i.e. this shade suits you) or the face acquires an unhealthy tone, becomes tired, or older (which means this shade does not suit you). Having decided which tones suit you (warm or cold), you can understand that you are approaching one of two color types. Warm - this is autumn and spring. and cold - winter. summer. After reading the descriptions of each of the types of appearance, you can decide which type you are most suited to.

Especially for readers of the site Beauty for all, I found a video “how to determine your color type”. See if it suits you

In general, it is not only interesting to study your own or someone else's nationality, it is also quite cool to learn the traditions of certain nationalities, for example, what holidays are celebrated by residents of different countries. As you can see, it is sometimes difficult to determine nationality, since in modern life people have a lot of blood "mixed".

The nationality of a person can be very difficult to determine in some cases. There are several ways to determine the nationality of a person, this is natural, firstly, appearance, and secondly, the language in which he speaks. It also determines nationality by manners, the accent with which a person speaks, his citizenship, surname and many other factors. I will explain with some examples how to determine nationality by appearance, and which by internal signs of a person.

The Negroid race is considered the easiest type in the world. Determining the nationality of a person if he is from Africa or is African American is very easy. He will naturally have very dark skin or simply very tanned. No one a white man or an Asian will never in his life be able to tan to such an extent, either in a solarium or in the sun, that he looks like a black person. Black people have almost one hundred percent of the case dark brown eyes, or almost completely black. The Negroid race has pronounced large noses with large nostrils. The eyes are also very large and larger than those of other races and nations. Also the structure of the skull is slightly different. What causes big noses and nostrils? The fact that Africa has a very warm climate and historically it so happened that such hot air as for example in the desert is very harmful to a person. Therefore, nature adapted the Negroid race and made them big noses so that they could filter and cool the air. Also, blacks tolerate heat more easily than white people, this is due to their special black skin, which has more pigment, to sunstroke they are better adapted, but still, like whites and Asians, they cannot be in the open sun without drinking and pouring water for more than eight hours. Also, blacks have very large and thick lips for the most part, I don’t know exactly how this is isolated, but this is also due to the hot climate in Africa. They also have a slightly different build from white people, more square shoulders, and are generally taller. Their accent may be different, but for example, a Negroid who grew up in Russia will speak pure Russian, so it’s not always possible to determine by accent.

Asians, that is, the Chinese can be specifically identified by the following factors. The Chinese are very short stature, almost always 160 centimeters. They also have darker skin than white people, but not the same as blacks. Basically, it is with yellowish tints, but not the same as with jaundice. The Chinese have very narrow eyes, a small nose and thin lips. The Chinese, for the most part, also have dark brown eyes, like the Negroids, the Chinese are rare with gray or blue eyes, only if their parents are of a different race, for example, the mother was European.

Many people cannot identify Kazakh or Kyrgyz in front of them. But here, too, there are different factors. All nations of the post-Soviet space are different from each other. The Kirghiz, for example, have smoother and well-proportioned faces than the Kazakhs. Although the eyes of both peoples are narrow. This is due to the steppes, nature made it there so that dust does not get into the eyes and does not blow much with the wind. Also, all the nations of this region, that is to say: Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, Tajiks, Mongols, Uzbeks and Turkmens have dark hair and dark eye color. But there are also exceptions, red-haired Kazakhs, for example, with blue eyes.

Now about the Thais and about those who live in Southeast Asia. People from these regions are short like the Chinese, have the same narrow eyes, but their lips are thicker. There is something from the Negroids, because the climate there is similar to some latitudes like in Africa. Thais and Vietnamese have darker skin than the Chinese, some look like Negroids, some are just like two drops of water if it weren’t for their height and narrow eyes. Women from these areas are very similar to children even at the age of twenty-five. Men and women have very sparse body hair and dark hair. Men almost do not wear a beard, and if they do, it grows on them only on their chins, under their noses and on sideburns. Their accent is just awful. The languages of Southeast Asia lack most of the sounds that you and I pronounce in Everyday life. These languages are softer. For example, I heard such a fact that it is difficult for Asians to pronounce the letter L. Strange, but this happens.

Islanders. It's like a separate nation. They can be identified by dark skin color and dark eye and hair color. They have everything almost similar to Negroids, the only thing is that their facial features are very regular and in general they mostly have very Beautiful face. Their growth is small and the emphasis will be similar to the inhabitants South-East Asia.

Germans, residents of northern and central Europe can be identified by the face. Basically, these are gray eyes and a lightish hair color, but not white, only thirty percent of them are blondes. The Germans are naturally easy to identify by language. Native Germans speak German very terribly, it will not be very pleasant for our person to listen to, because the phonetics there are quite rough and they frankly distort some sounds. The Germans, in contrast to the Russians, for example, have more square faces, more disproportionate facial features. German girls basically do not differ in beauty, unlike our girls. They have a fairly average build, rarely exceeding two meters in height. Just like all Europeans, they have light eyes and small noses and lips. This is due to the fact that the air in Europe is mostly cool and favorable for the human body, it does not need to be cooled down like in Africa, and nature has done everything for this. Also, the sun does not hit hard as in Africa, the skin is light and not tanned by nature.

Scandinavians can be identified by blond hair and eyes. Their skin is the whitest of all nations in the world, because they live in the most northern latitudes where the sun is never as hot as in Africa. Their accent in Russian will be the same as that of all Europeans, or maybe not at all, since in principle our languages have similar alphabets and phonetics. The physique is the same as that of all Europeans, but growth is also rather tall, unlike our nation.

Define Latins. More precisely, residents Latin America. These are Mexicans, Panamanians, residents of Honduras, Colombia. These are the descendants of the Spaniards and the Portuguese. And so I will tell right away about everyone who lives in South America, Latin America, Portugal and Spain. Excluding naturally Negroids who live there in in large numbers. In general, Latinos have smooth facial features, their faces are very pleasant, although sometimes their noses are quite large. They like to wear mustaches, shaving off everything else, it's like national trait and as a stereotype that a Mexican should have a distinctive black mustache. Their eyes and hair color are mostly brown and dark. But there are also burning green eyes and blue and gray. Their language is very beautiful, they will speak Russian without an accent if they have learned it. Basically, they are very temperamental and they are all based on feelings. A few days of communication with such a person can make a very accurate conclusion that he is either from Latin America, or from Spain or Portugal.

It is very difficult to define an American. And all because the Americans are the descendants of Europeans. Their blood is highly mixed. There are French and Italians, Portuguese, Spaniards. IN North America brought for a long time Negroids as slaves, therefore, after the abolition of slavery, a mixture of the white population with the black began. Of course, if the husband or wife is a Negroid and the second parent is white, then 90 percent of the child will be born a Negroid, but if he was born white, he will still have some kind of Negroid facial features or have black eyes and black hair. An American can only be identified by his accent if he was not born in Russian speaking country. In principle, one can say that they are a universal nation or not a nation at all, because so much is mixed in their blood. The USA is a country of immigrants, there are absolutely all nations there, and everyone who was born there can consider himself an American, it will be very difficult to say. The only way to define it is that Americans are very fond of money and business, but this is most likely useless information for determining a nation.

Of course, the surname of a person also determines his nationality mainly. For example, the surnames of the Chinese are very short, from two to four letters. Their last name is Lee. If a person has the surname Chen, Xian, Li, Huan, then most likely this is a Chinese. But Koreans have such surnames as Pak, Kim, and, in principle, the surname Lee is also very common among them.

The same applies to the inhabitants of Southeast Asia and the inhabitants of some islands where Asians live.

It will be very difficult to confuse the surnames of Americans in the main with others. Only if with other English-speaking nations. Usually in their surname, as in ours, there is the name of a grandfather or great-grandfather. Surnames such as Anderson, Johnson, Thomson. At the end, for the most part, "sleep" is added, which means on English language son, that is, the son of John is Johnson.

In the UK, the surname Smith is very common. There are the same surnames as in the USA, because they have the same language, but the names there are more complicated. Like Gerard for example. It is possible if it can be distinguished by the name of an Englishman and an American. Also, many Americans, when they became, let's say, Americans, sailed from Europe to colonize America, they took whatever surnames they wanted. For example Brown or Snipes. These were both convicts and criminals, they took very elaborate surnames for themselves, the same Gold, which means gold.

Inhabitants Central Asia basically, they also differ in their surname. They sound very rude in Russian. For example Aldarbekov or Nurbekbaev. Everything here is due to the prefix at the end of the surname. Bek or buy can be attached, or maybe both at once. These surnames end in -ov and -ev, as well as -in. But in some countries of the post-Soviet space, they abandoned the Russian heritage and removed the prefixes. We got such surnames as Aryn, Baltabay, Zhanbyrbay. Also, the names can be the same, that is, Nurbai Boltabek. This is a first and last name. And the patronymic is attached -uly or -kyzy. For example, Boranbay Ahmed Saibolatuly. This is the name of some Kazakh or Kyrgyz.

But the Caucasians are generally wonderful. Georgians add -shvili or -dze at the end of the surname. For example, Garadze or Dzhugashvili (by the way, the name of the Georgian Stalin). Armenians add -yan, for example Gasparyan, Harutyunyan. Maybe the name Harutyun and the surname Harutyunyan, that is, the son of Harutyun logically. For Azerbaijanis, the surname cannot be so easily determined, as well as for other Caucasians.

For example, until recently, I thought that the surname Pirov is a Russian surname, derived from the word "feast", that is, a holiday. But no, this is a Dagestan surname. In Chechnya, Ingushetia and Dagestan, the surname basically follows the name of the teip. These are surnames similar to Basaev, Pugoev, Tsechoev. They basically differ from Russians in that their meaning will not be clear to us.

The Ukrainian surname must end with the letter O. These are Glushko, Shmatko, Tymoshenko, Yushchenko. And also, for example, Yanukovych Ukrainian surname, that is, there are also options.

The surnames of the inhabitants of Latin America and Spain, Portugal are easy to distinguish. This is Sanchez, Perez, Luis. All their surnames sound very beautiful, as well as their names, as well as their smooth language.

Well, it is simply impossible to confuse the names of Arabs, for example, with some others. There will be very long surname which lists all seven generations that came before this person. Ibn will definitely be present there, which means the son of so-and-so. For example, if we had Arabic surnames, then we would say Alexei Ibn Gavrila. That is, the son of Gabriel. And they don’t have surnames as such, they have a pedigree.

Jewish surnames in the Russian version will end in -vskiy and -vich. These are Abramovich, Zhirinovsky, Khodorkovsky, Yavlinsky. All this Jewish surnames and naturally point these surnames to Jewish roots.

Nationality - important factor self-perception, without which it is sometimes problematic to live. Previously, it was even displayed in passports and in all documents that directly related to the person's personality. Now it is practically not written anywhere. Therefore, it is very often difficult to understand how to define one's nationality. But it is possible. Even if there is no information left. Of course, you can always use a DNA test - but they are not done everywhere and are very expensive. So it's better to start with obvious signs.

How to determine your nationality?

How to determine nationality on various grounds?

One's belonging to a particular nation can be determined by many factors.

Here, both the appearance of a person and his speech and even the nationality of his parents can play a role.
But the main thing is how a person realizes himself.
That is, if someone was born in Tatarstan, but realizes and behaves like a Russian, he will be a Russian, not a Tatar.

How to determine nationality by appearance in women and men is a serious problem. Unfortunately, now the blood of an average person contains at least two or three nations - both the Tatar-Mongol yoke and the Great Patriotic War and the multinationality of the country. The signs are blurred. But you can try to highlight individual parameters - the cut and setting of the eyes, the shape of the body, skull and nose, the color type of the skin, eyes, hair, hair type, and so on. Pivot tables about each nation are quite realistic to find.

But the question of how to determine the nationality of a child is much more difficult. It depends on what state he is currently in. For example, in Russia, nationality is determined solely by the father. As in most other countries. And only in Israel - on the mother's side. That is, if a child was conceived from a man of any other nationality and a Jewess, then he will be a Jew in Israel and have the nationality of his father in his homeland.

How to determine nationality by last name

To correctly determine your nationality by last name, you will have to partially recall the school morphology course. Because the presence of a particular morpheme in a word depends on which language it belongs to.

A test for nationality can reveal one's participation in a certain category of people. A person does not always know personal roots, perhaps he grew up in an orphanage, his parents did not talk about his ancestors. Often people suspect that they do not belong to the nationality indicated in the passport, but they do not know how to reveal their true roots. You can, of course, take a DNA test or ask friends, old people who can tell you about distant relatives, but this is long and painstaking. Often there is no time or no desire to do this, because without any evidence they lived for so many years.

But the test for nationality by appearance, surname, character, you can pass quickly, while getting an exhaustive result. Sometimes even the appearance does not distinguish a person from others, but temperament, a violent temper, takes its toll. Here we can say that in every country, city, village, there are such people, and their character does not depend on ethnic identity. There is some truth in this, but most still understand why they look different, have curly hair or other features, so they want to know their true origin.

Do you like to imitate the movements that other people do?

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a true biological safe for storing information about a person. The Bureau of Specialized Examinations annually conducts a huge number of analyzes of this type. Research into ethnic or race, a DNA test for nationality - these are the most common requests for an examination. The article describes the possibilities of DNA analysis, the types of research being carried out, and explains the reasons for erroneous ideas about the conclusions of specialists.

Possibilities of DNA examination

With the help of DNA testing, specialists receive answers to several very important issues relating to the personal data of an individual. Deoxyribonucleic acid is investigated when it is necessary to find out the origin of an individual, to identify family and genealogical ties, to confirm / refute the involvement of a person in various activities or events.

Such a study provides the most accurate answers to the following questions:

Ethnic origin of a person. With the help of high-tech equipment, specialists determine which of the 4 ethnic groups (European, African, East Asian or Southeast) the DNA samples of a particular individual belong to. The test result will show the share of each group in the unit of the material under study as a percentage. Quite often, in an effort to establish their own ethnicity, people think that they will be helped to determine the nationality of distant ancestors, to determine on which lands their family originates. However, an analysis of ethnic origin does not give an answer - what nationality were the distant ancestors of a person.
Genealogy of the genus. If a person needs to recover family ties for several years or longer, to collect the most complete information about all possible relatives, as well as to confirm or deny kinship - genealogical analysis will help.
Family ties. The most common test is to establish paternity (for this, the Y-chromosome, the so-called "paternal", is taken male line in the genus).
Racial affiliation. Especially a lot of confusion arises when conducting DNA analysis for belonging to a particular race. Race and nationality are not identical definitions, for example - if the results indicate that a given individual belongs to the Caucasian race, to conclude that he has Caucasian nationality is absurd.

Haplotype: brief description

DNA examinations with a genealogical focus are carried out using genetic research. In order for a person to find out his origin "from Noah's flood", he needs to submit biological material to a specialized laboratory, according to which the most distant relative will be identified.

All personal data is stored by the haplotype - a complete database of hereditary information that is formed at conception.

It is the halotype that helps to almost accurately determine a person's belonging to any national group.

But this analysis cannot be called a DNA test to determine nationality, since the definitions of “national” and nationality are somewhat different concepts. If the first term belongs to the category of biology, then the second - to the category political concepts, who recently joined on a separate line in the passport.

What is the research material

To conduct a DNA examination, it is necessary to hand over biological material that has the ability to preserve genetic memory. Such material can be:

Parts (fragments) of the human skeleton, soft tissues (nails, hair, teeth, parts of bones);
Personal hygiene items (toothbrushes, toothpicks with saliva residues, women's tampons, handkerchiefs, razor blades);
Things and objects with traces of vital activity (traces of blood, semen on fabric, pacifier, straws for a cocktail, condoms).

Ethnicity is defined in men and women in different ways:

For men, to obtain a reliable result, it is enough to provide their own material for analysis, the results will show information on both family lines - father and mother.
Women donate their biological sample (maternal line) and paternal material (father line). The doctor's advice on preparing for the analysis does not contain any special recommendations, you must follow the standard requirements.

Research using DNA belongs to the category of the most modern analytical research based on the most modern innovative technologies.

Now everyone can, with the help of an analysis of the origin of their ancestors, find relatives about whom they did not know at all. Testing helps specialists in many fields of science, professionals in several fields of activity. DNA analysis is a real pantry of the history of human evolution.
