Good work!
I was wondering if you have ever come across any kind of paper where the world's population is broken down by haplogroup? (From statistical projections or something).

Good work! I was wondering if you have ever come across any kind of paper where the world's population is broken down by haplogroup? (From statistical projections or something). Yes, there are many studies on the subject. For Y chromosomes, this is a good paper: hpgl.stanford.edu/publications/AHG_2001_v65_p43.pdf#search='The%20phylogeography%20of%20Y%20chromosome%20binary%20haplotypes%20and%20the%20origins%20of%20modern%20human%20populations' MtDNA is less geographically defined, so might be less interesting. It's good to separate the major continents, but not smaller regions. Y is best for that. I hope this helps.

That's a document that I hadn't read, although I've seen some other similar documents. Maybe what I'm looking isn't available yet. I was thinking something like this: out the 6 billion plus of world inhabitants, 800 million belong to haplogroup xyz, 550 million belong to haplogroup zyx, etc., etc. Of course such a table can only be an approximation, still I think it would be interesting to read.
