The French are your third closest ethnicity, there are other calculators that might be far more precise though.

aahhh got mixed up with the 2 graphs

also highly doubt this calculator since French Huguenots make up a very large portion of Afrikaner ancestry

These calculators seem to agree that the Afrikaner are mostly made up of Germanic ancestry with just a lil bit of French & Celtic dna.

according to DNA research the following make up the majority of Afrikaner DNA-

"Estimates, based on genealogical research, vary but Dutch, German and French respectively contributed 34–37%, 27–34% and 13–26%" also there is around 5-7.5% non European ancestry in the Afrikaner population as well

What did you initially expect? Which countries do you believe should be more relevant to your community?

Depends on what source samples they're using for that research can I have the link?

Dutch German and French make up minimum 2 thirds and maximum 85% of Afrikaner makeup...... Considering 5% of Afrikaner DNA is non European that lives us with only around 10-20% of other European ancestry left which would include British, Scandinavian, Irish, Italian ect ect

brands will continue to sell more than just any common product even if they both have the same common material. I think brand has this lifestyle that create emotional attachment to the consumer . What is the difference between nike and adidas product ? If not just brand . So is this phones apart from their operating system which are always in different version. My old infinix zero is in the same edge with my samsung a21. Even if both are regarded as low end phones. Goodwill will make Samsung sell faster and more expensive than infinix despite having the same quality.

Thats one of the reasons iPhones still sell

People are just buying the logo

If you remove the apple logo they wouldn't buy it

AskiaHarem:


Assuming your talking about Asia Pacific technically no; outside of China, Japan, Korea, kinda Malaysia, and Singapore, etc the rest of the region is still barely any different than some parts of Africa. Some SEA countries score below a few African countries.

"On average" Western countries are still more developed than there Asian counterparts.

East Asia suffers some of the highest depression and suicide rates in the world becuase of overwork do to a draconian work culture. Lets also not forget that East Asia is about to go through a Demographic Apocalypse. A rapidly aging population, plummeting fertility rates well below replacement levels, disproportionet gender ratio(far more men than women) and minimal valuable natural resources(with the exception of China).

I don't believe Asia Pacific will collapse but I don't see there momentum holding.

[b]- naked eye test? You dumb bro?..... Besides unlike you I've actually been to both the US and China and I can confirm the US has better quality infrastructure.

The u are not being honest or maybe u visited china 4 fracases back.I may have not been to china but I have been to the US and what I have seen there in comparison to videos of china I can tell without doubt that the US infrastructures is rather a baby joke. A look at downtown LA or New York and borough and testify to what I am saying. Don’t get me started on the terrible roads all over US cities even in their.

- I said my conclusion was based of reports like that of PWC..... Not once did j claim pwc said what u are accusing me of, hell the pwc report is about gdp and not even infrastructure, secondly there are many reports that predict massive Infrastructure problems in Africa due to population growth

Ignoring ur drivel an your attempt to play damage control,pls can you a provide a report that backs your spurious prediction on Nigeria’s infrastructure .

Address the elephant in the room. Pop is not the problem. If china could do it then we would as well. I hope this sink in this time.

Avos are planted on the eastside of SA, and data shows as climate change happens only the westside of SA will become dryer and east will be wetter

-You just as ret@rded as some of the Kenyans on this thread that wanted to compare Joburg and Nairobi based on photos alone...........unfortunately it doesn't work that way. Now you can cry as much as you like claiming China has better infrastructure however the facts on the ground prove otherwise, WEF, WB and all other research point the US being way above China. If you want to disprove this fact then bring me actual research!!! Not "it looks better in photos"

-It's not damage control, its the fact that you can't read!!

Funnily enough one of the reports I read was in fact a PWC report "PwC’s 2014 Trends, Challenges and Future Outlook: Capital Projects & Infrastructure in East, South & West Africa”

Building the future: infrastructure in Nigeria until 2040
"Nigeria’s basic physical infrastructure deficit severely undermines the country’s prospects
for economic growth and development. Looking to the future, rapid population growth will
compound the challenge of inadequate levels of access to basic infrastructure. On average,
Nigeria’s African and global income peers have more extensive and better road networks,
and better access to electricity, clean water and improved sanitation"

The Kalahari Desert has always edged into South Africa. Yea climate change and desertification is real but there speed is exaggerated. Yea the Sahara desert MIGHT make it to the Congo..... in a couple hundred years or so...

Again ur report did not say Nigeria’s infrastructure will forever e behind SA’s as u claimed’ .perhaps you need to book ur next eye section ASAP.
Btw I am pretty sure they were numerous reports like this making headlines on some newspapers and magazines about china but fast forward till today and the tables have changed.

- Listen bru, I ain't here to make friends....you've done your fair share of name calling so don't get on your high horse and act all mighty.....The fact is you have no evidence hence you resort to ridiculously calling the WEF and WB nonsense organizations.
Like I told you several times before, get me evidence in the form of actual research and/or any other indexes that prove that China has over taken the US in terms of infrastructure.

- And if you read the sources you would of seen that population growth is the main cause of infrastructure challenges in the future, SA unlike many other African countries won't have that problem since our population growth is slowing...a lot!! Do you have any idea what Nigeria's population is going to be in 2050 and 2100?? So yeah that's 100% why Nigeria will never catch SA which is already light years ahead.

Secondly there is no such thing as a naked I test, it's a ret@rded argument made by ret@rded people.

so population growth means the economy will reduce?


bro
just take nyaope and go sleep

Hunter, US infrastructure was great but it's crumbled due to disrepair - it very likely to find potholes in some US inner roads than even in RSA, water pipes are leaking, sewage system broken, the railway is more a relic, name it, it's old and crumbling. Infrastructure need to be maintained and or even replaced. For instance most roads have 20yr life span. That is why the idea that country cannot overtake another is ridiculous.

if you can't understand what I meant by that then it's your own problem.....but let me make it simple... More population more infrastructure needed, less population less infrastructure needed. The US already has infrastructure in place that can cater for the majority of its citizens, yes they will also continue to build infrastructure, however they don't need to build infrastructure at the rate China does
