It reminds me of how 1/2 Native American's were treated . 1/2 breed was a derogatory term often used for them. Some people are just nasty.

Finns through Russia: 1) Finland proper was under imperial control of Russia for more than 100 years 2) lot of people in northern Russia have some Finnish background 3) there are several subjugated nations inside Russia who are related to Finns Any Russian soldier coming from St Peterburg to the East could have bring the Finnish heritage actually

Had m inline done, found out I'm also 3%Native American from Grandma in 1400s! And 85% Scottish. Some ancient German too. Also bit of French, like 10% as my mom was French Canadian. Was told I was Irish as a little girl, which is very very low % so I'm lol at what parents thought but not true.

They Scythians were a Norse community that merged with an Eastern Asian bloodline, we think Jomon / Japanese. So that's maybe where your Finnish came from. A Scythian (from North of the Black Sea). The Mongolians came and pushed through their territory during the 1000-1200s, so maybe they carried a woman back with them. Maybe she escaped and went to Japan? To her ancestral Jomon tribal distant cousins? No wait the Mongols invaded Japan too. Maybe whoever carried this Finnish women came there. Kieyvan Rus' were invaded in 1240. Japan in 1271. Its possible.

How do you say I like to suggck.let me suggck you

How lucky to have photographs.

Weirdly. I was once asked if I was Finnish at a dinner party.

It was so fun listening to you guys. It was just like being home english japanese English japanese

My japanese Godmother was from an island off the coast of Hokkaido. Her brothers were all over 6ft tall and had green eyes. Your nose is so cute.

Your nationality is where you are a citizen and not incumbent upon your blood quantum

Wow. Don't know if anyone has said this already but your grandmother's father looks 99% Finnish. How do I know? I'm a Finnish guy and he looks just like anyone in old books from 100 years or so ago.

It doesn't matter be happy with your self 😊

I like the racist black lady that calls to delete whites and demands reparations that finds out her family owned more slaves then anyone on earth and were 1/100 people that came over on the Mayflower 😂😂😂

You’ve had a Bell’s palsy attack? This Aug. I’ll be 2 years into my Bells Palsy attack. Still having issues on the right side of my face.

This is from 2019 why are they releasing it now???

I am half Japanese. My mother had her haircut like your mother when she was a young girl in Japan.

IMO, My Heritage is not the most accurate DNA text out there. My heritage says I’m 15% Iberian which doesn’t make any sense at all.

Ainu have a common ancestry with the Aborigines of Australia. Inuit likely traces back to the ancient Central Asian people of which East Asians and current Central Asians and Native Americans are descended from long ago. I have no idea what's going on with the Finnish genetic markers, unless such markers are all over the northern hemisphere of the world.

"ETHNICITY", GENIUS NOT JUST "NATIONALITY"! OY VEY! 🤔🙄😒 I ABSOLUTELY LOVE hearing people speaking Japanese! I'm White, Canadian woman who ABSOLUTELY LOVES spicy egg ramen! 🌶🥚🍜 My Own recipe! 🥰🤗💖 MATANE! 🙂 AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE CINNAMOROLL! 🩵🤍

Sound like the similar mix of Japanese as my ancestry. Think the changes between the ABO blood types in most Asian people, but, especially in East-Asian, cause some differences in appearance because of the way the body reacts to the proteins in food and other micro-organisms in the environment! In the north it is frozen, so there is little chance to activate the antigen via bacteria, so, the face shape doesnt change too much. Different life stages also give a different appearance-the face will be more sculpted and smaller as you get to each age stage also staying that way for longer, effectively making you look very 'young' to a westerner with the same number of years, this additionally can be confusing to them. The Northern most Islands and some of the Mainland near Korea and Manchuria areas were joined in some trade a few thousand years past. Because Japanese Islands were seperated into different family villages in the past, it is still possible for the closest mainland- where they could have also met in the ocean on fishing journeys - to have remenants of the mainland genetics. In the North, Inuit is a broad discription for anyone from the north pole who lived with a certain type of culture-this is a part of the peopleing of Japan, also Alaska and Siberia. So if you flip the globe on it's end you will see where many parts of native Japanese genetics came from and went to. Others in the South, obviously could also travel south with the currents and copying the flow of large sealife. Those genetics still carry markers though, and are difficult to mix up with modern immigrants.

Finland used to be part of the Russian Empire, so the Russian blood in you might have come from Finland through the exchange that went on in Sakhalin~Hokkaido before the Russo-Japanese war.

Um Kate Hudson much? I am sure that you have heard that before lol

I wonder if an average Japanese person wants to find out if they are not pure Japanese. I don’t think they want to be disappointed

50 25 12.5 6.25 3.125 1.5625 is pretty close to 1.3% 4x Great Grand parent was of Finnish extraction. That is between 200 to 300 years ago. Maybe some Finn moved to the Netherlands and then his or her children or him or herself, likely himself by the way, managed to be involved in trade with Japan during that time that Japan was only trading with the Dutch and somehow there was some naughty stuff going on with a local Japanese and there you go.

Finnish can refer to all Uralic peoples and Uralic Nenets are related to Paleo-Siberian people which means your Eskimo/Inuit related ancestors could had married people part of the Great Eurasian Plain culture.

Its pretty rare to be 100% anything

When you did your DNA test, you wondered if anyone was 100% anything. Conan O'Brien, comedian, tested as 100% Irish. And BTW, both Alaska, where Inuits are, and Finland are adjacent to Russia, which probably explains why your ancestor thought there was some Russian in the ancestry.

Ancient finns migrated from manchuria to finland.

Conan came back 100% Irish. They said it's because of inbreeding.

Every Finnish person watching this is like, "yep."

Well, Masako. Ok. My girls' Dad's Mom's Mom was Masako... And from Hokkaido, as was her Dad. Other side both from Kyoto. But his Mom and Grandmother and many family from that side have very distinctly "different" features. Round eyes and long curling lashes, soft curls in hair, a softer jawline. I 5houfht 5he family must have a bunch of Ainu, possibly some Russian from 1500-1600 explorers

My mom is from Sakhalin Island before WWII. It is now Russia. I was born in Sapporo. My DNA test showed Japan and Ryukyu Islands. You never know how it’s going to go with DNA.

Blonde and Japanese

Your facial structure dont look full Japanese.

People in Japan can be have chineese too.

Hi, your husband has that face of Italian and Iberian. That nose is not Irish , he has hawk like features, if his skin had that permanent suntan, put him in ancient Iberian clothing he would pass, if you put him in ancient Roman clothing …. Amazing how genetics can reveal our ancestor’s journey’s across land and sea, intermingling with different genotypes and those traits will come to light in a future descendant. Most people do not realize that Japanese and Korean are the same genotype, yet developed different clothing, language and customs. Yet, share very similar ridged class system and a male offspring is a must, women are treated as pawns in family politics and considered only as wives, mistresses or whores and not of any individual importance. The racial purity stance of not accepting children who were mixed as we saw in the Korean War, mixed children were not accepted by families, left to die or left in American military camps. Chinese, Japanese and Koreans historically did not adopt a child unless for a male to carry the family line. If a child was taken in it was a a lifelong servant. Still true today, there are orphanages full of children needing homes in these countries, but will never experience a loving home unless other people from outside adopt them. Sometimes, the customs are so harsh that it brings such pain to people and should be changed.

I think Japan was that far north that peninsula in Asia that is include. The Korean I think is just cause a lot of ethnic Korean in Japan the last 2 decades..

1. It is against French law to do DNA testing. 2. My girlfriend is from Paris and is a naturalized American. 3. She ran the DNA test. 4. Oh my goodness! She wasn't 100% French. 5. Somehow there was a British ancestor (recently) under the covers with her pure French background. 6. She now has the perp time of action identified, but no name. I guess they did hookups in olden times. I . I did a Dna test 2. My brother-in-law did a DNA test 3. We are amazed that people were able to get around that much before airplanes, trains, and modern diesel powered ships cam into existence. 4. I guess that there was some underlying meaning to the old saying: "Any port in a storm!"

There’s a reason that the terms Gaelic and Galatia (in Turquia) are related.

I agree that people confuse ancestry with nationality. Irish American people who travel to Ireland are thought of as Americans by the Irish. Frankly, we all live on a round world, and we all got off the ark with Mr and Mrs Noah. Ever since then, we have dispersed and recombined again and again. Essentially, we all come from melting-pot peoples of the past.

It's possible to be 100% something, so long as you are a bit fluid on how you define "100%"

European traders made contact with the Japanese way way back and there was some mixing there. It is possible some of those explores were Finnish.

My father has traced his ancestry to the 1600's, and they are already in North America. Not *THE first, but close to it.

8:10 It is a bit creepy. These animations in general, not your grandmother in particular.

A friend of mine did one of those ancestry things on herself and her dad. She wanted her mom's DNA too, but her mom refused, and indeed seemed to be alarmed that she was doing it for herself and her dad. She learned why her mom was alarmed when she got the results. She called her mom and said they needed to talk, and talk outside the hearing ranger of her father. When she asked why she was not related to her dad, her mother started to cry. What she learned was horrifying. Her mom had been raped but had never said anything about it to anyone because she was so ashamed. There is a song with a line, "I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then." That's exactly how my friend felt. She told no one about this until both of her parents had passed away.

0:50 I'm not sure I'm alone in thinking the name Caryn Elaine Johnson sounds very white. If I said that name belonged to a black woman you may find that hard to believe, but Caryn Elaine Johnson certainly qualifies as an A-list Celebrity. But she is much better known by her stage name, Whoopie Goldberg.

I had a friend growing up who loved boasting that he was "Pure Korean." Once, a bit sick of his boasting, and considering that Korea is a smallish peninsula attached to China, I told him that he probably had some Chinese in him. Boy, he didn't like that one bit. But you want to know a secret. I'm still pretty sure he was partly Chinese, even if that ancestry came from the times before Asians still lived as hinter/gatherers and di not have distinctions such as "China" and "Korea." Crossing a river doesn't change your ethnicity, even if you, or your dependence never cross that river again. If your ancestors came from a place that would one day be called China, and they crossed a river into land that would one day be called Korea, would that mean you are Korean or are you still Chinese. And lets not forget the people who crossed a sea and settle on an island that would someday be called "Japan" or "Nippon". Ethnicity is meaningless.

I use duolingo 😅

Your daughter is just so precious. Her personality is really shining thru. And i DO think she was moking you LOL😂 ❤ya

You need to talk about Yamachan! I dream of Yamachan.
