just don’t understand how a nation (man made entity) shows up in chromosomes (natural). Must be some inferential glue in that analysis. There is not even a race gene. Like a single gene that is Caucasian, Black, Hispanic, etc. Multiple variate to infer race so suspect something similar for national descent? Somebody splain it to me.


If you’re serious….it’s just based on geographic concentrations of similar DNA matches.

I was surprised my DNA analyses showed me being far less Irish than I expected, but I guess a lot of English and Scottish matches migrated into that part of Ireland. Or something.

Mine somehow came back at 47%. Very precise.

Unfortunately, I learned that I am not completely white...I got 1% NW Italy. 87% British Isles (shockingly much more Southern England than Northern or Scotland), 6% NW Germany, 4% Danish, and 2% Icelandic. I assume the latter three are carryovers from the Viking invasions.

Anyone who would do this is foolish. But if a close family member already has, it doesn’t matter.
Still- same bunch that supports Flock cameras do this shite.
