The reason italian are super roman is because the study used "Roman Republic" as "every single individual that lived in Italy 800 BC - 100 BC, which includes:
- south italian samples
- central Italian samples
- North east italian samples (picenes)
- Latini IA (nw italians/north east spaniards).
The mix of all those lands somewhere in corsica.
It's a bad model.
If you really want the truthnuke:
-North Italians are 40% Italoceltic, then they are 40% south italian (imperial cluster C6) and then 20% germano-slavic.
-Central Italians are a fake ethnicity born from mixing of south italians and north italians, but can be modelled as "north-italian-lite", less italoceltic and germanic, more imperial.
- South Italians are 1/3 Mycenaean-like, 1/3 Anatolian-like, 1/3 Italoceltic, or 85+% C6 Imperial, with minimal contribution.
Spaniards are 60-70% Iberia IA, 15-35% Imperial, 10-20% North african. (Not pure iberomaurusian)
French people are 20~ Imperial, 20~ Germanic, 60~ celtic, on average.
The most italic people in the world are probably Central Italians, followed by north italians, in terms of direct ancestry.
