      So periodically Ancestry sends me an email to tell me they have enough population info to update my ethnicity estimate. What I find hilarious about it is that I keep getting whiter and more genetically British.

      *yes yes Ancestry will give the feds my DNA. Except the govt took DNA samples and also incredibly invasive background info from 98-10 when I was in the military and held a TS clearance so I'm admittedly cavalier about it at this point.

      Also thanks to the Chinese hack of the Office of Personnel Management, the Chinese govt has my incredibly invasive background investigations. MIGHT AS WELL LET ANCESTRY HAVE SOME DNA.

      So hey you know those Ancestry DNA tests? Hilariously, we've found another one of my great-uncle's out of wedlock children because I did one and then my mom did one.

      Notably I do not have any on paper evidence for "Germanic Europe" or Norway, all the ancestors mom and I have traced back to Europe come from Great Britain or Ireland.

      Almost guaranteed the Germanic Europe stuff is likely from admixture from the Continent to GB and Ireland, although to be honest I am unsure as to how they are classifying the locations. Genetics are tricky.

          Population bottlenecks in times of plague will also tend to make even moreso of a mix, but with invasions and trade and just moving around it is inevitable.

          Yeah and I do not regard it as particularly accurate except insofar as it corroborates the historical record we've been able to find. Where there's a discrepancy, it's gonna be in the DNA results.
