๐ซ๐ฎ Genetic Landscape of Finland
Finland is one of Europe's great genetic outliers โ the Finns are genetically distinct from their Scandinavian neighbors, carrying ancient Uralic genetic signatures from migration out of the Ural Mountains region. A population bottleneck ~4,000 years ago created the 'Finnish Disease Heritage,' a set of 36+ genetic conditions more common in Finland than anywhere else. Eastern and Western Finland have measurably different genetic profiles. The Sรกmi minority adds additional genetic distinctiveness.
