Myanmar probably has the most diverse DNA in the world. The wealth of DNA is due to the country being the crossroad between India and the rest of Asia. That's massive

I've always understood that "Bamar" didn't exist before - it is a hybrid lineage from different populations (Tibet, China, India, local indigenous populations) inter-mixing - it is a heterogeneous mixed-blood population who share a similar culture instead of similar DNA.

I'm Burmese. Whenever I saw people from Europe tested DNA to know their ancestors, I really envy. I wanted to know where we're come from. Some said we're from Tibet, some said from India, but some said we're already excited here since long time ago because of the old primitives fossil jaw found in "Pone Taung Pone Nyar" region.
