🇵🇪 Genetic Landscape of Peru
Peru has one of the world's highest O blood type frequencies (~70% combined), reflecting powerful Indigenous genetic foundations from the Inca, Moche, and Nazca civilizations. The Quechua and Aymara peoples of the Andes developed unique genetic adaptations for high-altitude living. Spanish colonial mixing created a mestizo majority, but Indigenous genetics remain dominant. Lima shows more European influence, while the highlands and Amazon are among the most genetically Indigenous regions in the Americas.
