A focused population profile of Aragonese people, their northeastern Iberian background, closest modern genetic matches, ancestry model, and World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Aragonese people are from Aragon in northeastern Spain, including Zaragoza, Huesca, Teruel, the Ebro valley, and the Pyrenees. Aragonese history is tied to the medieval Kingdom of Aragon, the Crown of Aragon, Pyrenean valleys, Mediterranean expansion, and contact with Catalonia, Valencia, Navarre, Castile, and southern France.
Spanish is the main language today, while Aragonese and Catalan are historically or locally important in parts of the region. Aragon sits between central Iberia, the Pyrenees, Catalonia, and Valencia, which is visible in the closest-match list.
As a genetic reference, Spanish Aragon Aragonese is useful for comparison with Madrid Castilian, Catalonia Pirineu, Valencian, Catalonia Lleida, La Rioja, Cantabrian, Castile and Leon Burgos North, and other northeastern or central Iberian references.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Spanish Aragon (Aragonese) is Spanish Madrid (Castilian). Other nearby references include Spanish Catalonia Alt Pirineu (Catalan), Spanish Catalonia Lleida (Catalan), Spanish La Rioja (Riojan), and Spanish Cantabria (Cantabrian). This gives the Spanish Aragon (Aragonese) profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestry breakdown gives deeper component proportions, while closest matches show modern similarity. Aragonese is best interpreted as a northeastern Iberian profile, with Catalan, Valencian, Madrid/Castilian, La Rioja, Cantabrian, and Pyrenean context.
The heatmap should emphasize Aragon, Zaragoza, the Pyrenees, Catalonia, Valencia, Madrid, La Rioja, Cantabria, and nearby northeastern Iberian regions.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Spanish Madrid (Castilian). Other nearby references include Spanish Catalonia Alt Pirineu (Catalan), Spanish Catalonia Lleida (Catalan), Spanish La Rioja (Riojan), and Spanish Cantabria (Cantabrian).
In the current modern G25 reference set, Spanish Madrid (Castilian) is the closest listed match to the Spanish Aragon (Aragonese) average after removing Spanish Aragon (Aragonese) itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Spanish Aragon (Aragonese) G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
