Are South Slavs mostly assimilated Thracians, Illyrians, and other native paleo-Balkan groups?

no, for the longest time that was an idea held to... and still is along nationalistic lines, as evidenced with the violent history of south slavs... the idea that they are immigrants is an extremely sore point.

its more wishfull thinking than anything else... Albanians are really the only group that can lay claim to being indigenous... even modern day greek...well, there is a reason why we call the ancient greeks ancient.

some assimilation did occur...resulting in admixture within slavic groups, but they are still genetically distinct as slavs, and not simply an assimilated population just calling themselves slavs.

genetic tests show albanians as the highest level of idb (Identity by descent) , meaning they have been a single cohesive group for thousands of years.....they show the least amount of shared ancestry with their surrounding neighbors, while their neighbors show more shared albanian ancestry.

The most natural and healthy diet for humans is an omnivorous diet, and not a plant based diet, or a meat-based diet per se. The Paleo Diet can be very widely varied and omnivorous for the most part, but the most important thing is that it’s unprocessed, and avoids the worst foods that agriculture brought mankind… refined inflammatory vegetable oils, refined grains (some are worse than others), and sugar!

As you can see, the benefits of adopting a Paleo way of eating can be incredible! I’ve been eating 95% Paleo for the last 5-6 years and I’ve never felt better. I have dozens of friends that have adopted a more Paleo way of eating too, and have seen all sorts of health problems disappear, including eliminating acne and other skin problems, digestion problems, improving brain clarity, and of course, losing a lot of body fat!

Balkan Native

I don't support illegal immigration, but they may be mixed somewhere down the line. However, the culture is really different. The truth is Native Americans are the real Americans, however, some immigratend to Mexico and started a new culture. It's not talked about, but they aren't considered Native American due to Mixing, African-Americans are considered more American than African, yet don't get treated that way, but Africans won't accept them as fully African, only as black people, but not real African. Native Americans that are living today are still here and thriving. The thing is Mexicans are mixed with Europeans, Spanish, and few others. They are not considered Native Americans, but I don't support illegal immigration. They make it seem like they can come illegally and nobody cares. I won't justify it , though. Blacks deserve benefits...

South Slavs

Bosnia-Herzegovina : Slavic = 15 % Illyrian = 40 %

Croatia : Slavic = 20 % Illyrian = 34 %

Serbia-Montenegro : Slavic = 30 % Illyrian = 21 %

FYR Macedonia : Slavic = 15 % Antic Macedonian = 30 %

Slovenia : Slavic = 20 % Teuton = 35 %

Bulgaria : Slavic ? ?

The East Slavs & West Slavs have higher percentages of Slavic dna markers in their genetic make up
