Holy cope

Was this the biggest redpill ancient genetics has dropped? Spaniards are literally ancient Romans. The work of Cicero, Tacitus, Pliny, Marcus Aurelius and Augustus was the work of Spanish men and Spanish minds

>Despite comprising diverse individuals of central European, northern African, and Near Eastern ancestry, the local gene pool is largely maintained across the first millennium BCE. This drastically changes during the Roman Imperial period where we report an abrupt population-wide shift to ~50% admixture with eastern Mediterranean ancestry.

Here's a quote from Augustus noticing the rapid racial replacement in Rome:

>How otherwise shall families continue? How can the commonwealth be preserved if we neither marry nor produce children? Surely you are not expecting some to spring up from the earth to succeed to your goods and to public affairs, as myths describe. It is neither pleasing to Heaven nor creditable that our race should cease and the name of Romans meet extinguishment in us, and the city be given up to foreigners, - Greek or even barbarians. We liberate slaves chiefly for the purpose of making out of them as many citizens as possible; we give our allies a share in the government that our numbers may increase: yet you, Romans of the original stock, including Quintii, Valerii, Iulli, are eager that your families and names at once shall perish with you.
Emperor Augustus. Cassius Dio 56.

I think Spaniards who like Italians are deeply mistaken. They think the Italians like them but they couldn't be more wrong.
North Italians view them with contempt the same way French do, because north Italians are delusional larpers who believe to be central Europeans celto-germanics when they are in fact more divergent from those they claim to be than Iberians are. They are essentially Terroni that are 20% germanics due to being raped by them.
Southern Italians aren't much better. They have a third world tier resentment toward Spain and believe that all their shortcoming are to be blamed on a Spanish rule that ended more than 300 years ago.
And no, modern Italians aren't Romans, they are essentially the descendants of Slaves from the eastern Mediterranean (which unfortunately, non Basques Spaniards partially descend from too though to a far lesser degree). As it happens, ancient Romans have far more in common with modern Iberians than they do with modern Italians genetically.
I know that some Spaniards are aware that shitalians monkeys are not their friends but many are still delusional about this whole "med brotherhood" nonsense.

Spain is a white country
Italians are shitskin

Italy < Spain
