@NinaByzantina Estonians are different, true. They are Finno-Ugric people like we Finns are. Different culture than slavics have.@J2Lana3 replies 1 retweet 0 likes -

. @VeliParkkulaine I recently found out that I have 2% Finnish ancestry. I think that means I have some dibs on Finno-Ugric culture. ;)))

@NinaByzantina Of course mostly Finnish blood, but besides that I have all those in my genes. Pretty typical for Eastern Finns.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
@VeliParkkulaine Perhaps, this ancestry testing depends on the provider and how specific their data pool is.
