R-S2856 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 133 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches.

It is most common in these samples: Slovenia (0.2% of kits), United States (0.1% of kits), England (0.1% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 4,200 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 3,600 to 4,900 years ago.
