Historically, technology has helped humans overcome geographical barriers that have historically placed limits on mating. Where once people were limited to mating with those in their local areas, today mate pools are theoretically much larger, even global. This has broken down barriers between once reproductively isolated subpopulations, including ethnic groups, and, as a result, reshaped the genetic makeup of many modern populations.
