  The European peoples have long thought and felt that each of them
  was unique, reflecting the particularly history and struggles the
  successive generations of their ancestors. The cultural differences
  of European nations have long been known, but today, genetic
  science is also able to quantify just how unique each nation is
  from a biological point of view as well.

  A paper published last year in Nature observed that most Europeans
  descend essentially from three ancestral populations:

  ...The Finns, Hungarians, and Estonians are unique in Europe in
  speaking Finno-Ugric languages. Most European nations speak
  Indo-European languages, descending from the original language of
  conquerors hailing from the Pontic Steppe. Genetic studies suggest
  that Finns are not just uniquely linguistically, but also
  genetically. Similarly, the Basque are the only other nation in
  Europe not speaking an Indo-European language and, as I have
  previously written, their region too appears to be genetically
  distinct relative to the rest of the French population.

  ...The existence of a genetically-unique Finnish people has proven
  beneficial to humanity. A striking example of this is a study
  conducted by the Washington University School of Medicine which
  â??harnessed the unique genetic history of the people of Finland to
  identify variations in DNA that might predispose certain
  individuals to disease, whether or not they are Finnish
  themselves.â??

  ...Personally, I tend to think that human cultural diversity and
  achievement has been promoted by the existence of genetically
  distinct peoples â?? European, Middle-Eastern, Indian, East Asian,
  including subdivisions within these â?? and their interaction.
  Humanity would no doubt have been less fecund if we were made up
  only of one amorphous blob rather than various nations and peoples,
  each with their own unique cultural and biological heritage.

  The genetic separation and uniqueness of many peoples, especially
  the Western, is unlikely to survive this century. There will of
  course still be White Americans, indigenous English, French, Finns,
  and so on, but, barring a political revolution, they will gradually
  lose their sovereignty and everything is going to get very muddled
  indeed over time.

  Whatever one thinks of these developments, they are taking place
  based on the false assumption that race does not exist, that human
  populations are fully interchangeable, and that the genetic
  identity of the population is of no relevance to national character
  and prosperity. This tremendous change is occurring in a fit of
  mindlessness.
