Ancestry dna tends to update around once every year or two so you might find it becomes more specific in the future with your results
That’s what I’m hoping will happen! It’ll be cool to have an update video in the future we’re I actually go in depth about the countries
@@vanessindistresss Mine was very easy. 87% Welsh, 8% Southern England, ( Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Gloucester.) The rest Scottish. Good honest stock. Coal miners. Slate miners, Steel workers, Publicans, Farmers). Today we are producing University graduates, Computer BAs, Airline pilots, Teachers, BAs, in languages, and other subjects, Welfare workers, etc.Its fascinating looking up your family, admittedly mine has been relatively easy.😄 Other than looking for the Jones family in Wales.😂
They did an update April 2022 so you should check the update
I'd say they update every 6 to 9 months. The most recent update was in April and their website says there will be another update this month (August 2022).
You dont need to retake the test, unless you delete your test or ask them to destroy your sample. They do periodical updates every year or so. The more people test from ukraine and those surrounding countries and add their ancestors, the more accurate your results should be
When it comes to larger geographical regions, which have been split by modern man into smaller countries, sometimes based on tribal lines, you are always going to get a mashup. The tiny countries are modern and man made, your DNA is older and more regional! :-) And can I just add, VERY COOL!
Hi pretty you good?
So the results (percentages) aren’t what your whole family actually are, they will have different percentages than you.
You get a random 50% of DNA from each of your parents which means even your full blooded siblings won’t have the same percentages and it possible that they could even get different regions than you as well unless of course both of your parents have the exact same genealogy which is pretty unlikely.
Interesting results though, can’t wait for mine to arrive !
Hi pretty you good?
A portion of that DNA come from your ancestors that goes back many generations.
Well in just 12 generations we have over 2,000 direct grandparents so you can just imagine how many people it took to get to you.
LOL! I guess many people don't realize how fluid the borders to countries have been throughout history and how often they switched affiliations, were invaded, etc. Makes for quite a mixture.
I was truly surprised at the number of genetic communities you had. Very cool.
It is most likely because they tested those areas.
My dad, Hungarian born/raised, and yes he WAS my dad since I cross referenced my results with a paternal cousin. Basically I'm over 80% NW Euro with the rest being Eastern Euro, Nigerian and N African AKA Arab. And yes, I'm stereotypically Nordic White in appearance.
I also took Ancestry and am 91% Slavic between Eastern Europe and Russia (Polish & Ukrainian) and Balkan (Croatian), + 5% Baltic and 4% Swedish.
FWIW, your profile will change over time as more and more people are tested and they have more samples. If you look at the breakdown and follow it down to its most specific, you can get a better idea of where you DNA comes from. When I drilled down into mine, the test hit exactly where both my Polish family migrated from and my Ukrainian (Lemko) family migrated from. My Croatian side was a bit more general, but the town they came from was within that identified region. The Baltic (Lithuanian & Latvian) has shown up more recently and that's not terribly surprising given the history between Lithuania and Poland. The Swedish doesn't really surprise me either since the history of the Kievan Rus includes invasions by vikings. That said, I also won't be surprised if those percentages disappear in a future update since they currently range from 0-4 and 0-5 percent each.
One of your male family should get it done as well. There may be different results. It is exciting to see where one comes from.
They will be different it is never the same not even for twins
Wow! This is really cool, the way you presented this, and included the family. I like it a lot.
Keep in mind that you are talking DNA. DNA knows no borders. Groups who later became residents of one country might have had their ancestry from another. If I go back even three generations, I can find someone from Prussia (or the Netherlands … we can’t be sure). Even if you are “English” for a bunch of generations, you are still going to find Danish and French mixed in. Even worse if you are “Baltic” … people migrated between Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia not that long ago. They never had enough genetic isolation to produce a set of genes really specific to them. You want that, maybe have all your ancestors be from Iceland.
Your siblings and family members won’t have the same results as you. They’ll be very similar, but they could pull DNA form ancestors that you genetically didn’t pull from. You all have many many ancestors and your genetic makeup can’t have it all, so get your family tested, too. It’s fun to compare. :)
I just watched a special done on all these ancestry tests and found out they are not very accurate at all! It’s more for entertainment purposes so don’t waste your money unless you want to try to find people who are related to you because that is the only thing these can actually do which is good
I couldn't believe you had so many communities listed under "Eastern Europe and Russia". My father's parents were from Poland. My ethnicity estimate says Eastern Europe & Russia 34%. It shows "Northeastern Poland" and then "Central Poland" under it and then it moves on to my other ethnicities (England & Northwestern Europe 25%, Wales 15%, Baltics 13%, etc.) You could say you're Slavic and Baltic, that your parents were from Ukraine but your ancestors were from various parts of Eastern Europe. That's an accurate description of your ancestry but it's also succinct.
Ancestry regularly updated your test percentages as they get more samples and/or as their tech improves
Cuh you said ballistic at 2:07, its Baltic. Straight disrespect to my homies
My bad chief
Keep in mind over the course of hundreds of years people move around a lot for various reasons. Your results should not be surprising to you.
In the early 1900s the immigration people just wrote Russian Empire. And that included almost all of those smaller countries. ( Belarus, Ukraine , parts of Lithuania etc)They then became the USSR and now they are independent. So it is not unusual to have a mixture. I am Belarus , Ukranian with some Lithuanian.This is very common in slavic countries.
I’m 87% West African
The crazy thing about DNA tests is members of the same family can all take the same test and have totally different results. You may not even get DNA from a known Ancestor. The farther back in person is in your bloodline the less the chance of you their DNA. You get have your DNA from each one of your parents yet your brother or sister will have diffrent DNA than you .
My sister and I took the same test with the same company and only share 9% Ethnicity. She has the French, Portugal, Siberian, European and I have Scandinavian, Italian, Greek and European 🤗 When painting the chromosomes, we actually both have all the same Ethnicities just in different percentages. 🤗. In our family tree we do have all the Ethnicities my sister and I have in our DNA 🧬. It is quite fascinating 🧬
@@puddenlipscomb7512 no 2 people will come out the same , it is just like pulling numbers out of a hat no two people pull the same numbers
I am surprised about Hungary. It is not even a slavic country.
I did my DNA through CRI Genetics. I did extensive research on all the DNA companies in the nation and found that CRI Genetics was exactly what I was looking for. You can order the recent ancestry report representing your last 5 generations. The report match 100% of what my mother has told me about my mother's heritage. I cannot do my father's because I am not a male. I was rather shocked, that everything that my mother told me about her grandparents, great-grandparents, great, great-grandparents and so on was in the report. The only thing that I did not know was the percentages. 54% Scandinavian, 9% Southern, and Central Slavic,
8% Western Slavic, 7% Germany, 7% Russian and Ukrainian, 6% British Isles, and 6% France.
I also did my Advance Ancestry Report which I was curious to find out about my oldest ancestries. The population of men and women that lived thousands of years before most current nations, such as Germany or Britain, even existed. The report still included these countries and region names, in order to best help me identify which geographic location my genetic makeup arose from. This was interesting. European 88.9 % , Northern European 39.8 % , British Isle 16.5% , N.W European 14.3% Toscany Italian (Etruscan) 9.3 %, Iberian 9%, South Asian 5.4 %, East Asian1.2 %
My mtDNA Haplogroup ( Mother Lineage) ancestry lines back to a single common ancestor. Otsi the Iceman ( around 3400-3100BCE) is Europe's oldest natural human mummy and shares my mtDNA. Also King Richard lll ( 1452-1485) and many other famous people.
My Haplogroup originated in West Asia between 20,000 and 38,000 years ago. Present-day farmers from the Early Neolithic, Near East, and European farmers. They spread during the Bronze Age leading to migration patterns venturing into Germanic countries and Central Asia. Today is particularly common in Northwest Europe.
If you're saying you couldn't get your paternal haplogroup because you aren't male, I believe Family Tree DNA might be able to get what they call the predicted haplogroup. You may want to look into it or send them an email and ask if they can give you your paternal haplogroup. Another very interesting site is called MyTrueAncestry. You send them the raw data from a DNA test you've taken and they compare your DNA to DNA from ancient remains. Among other things, my DNA was linked to Scythians and Ostrogoths in present-day Ukraine, Celtic and British gladiators in Roman era Britain, Danish Vikings put to death in England and Swedish and Norwegian Vikings in Iceland and Greenland. A particularly interesting ancestor was listed merely as "High Status Male" in Haunstetten, Germany--apparently a warlord or king.
Should have had subtitles under who everyone was, Dad, sisters, brother, etc. and a close up view of results, slowly panning down the paper. DNA results are always interesting!!!
Thank you I will keep this in mind for future videos! The order of family members goes brother, dad, brother, sisters, when it comes to who appears in the video first
On Family Tree DNA and myheritageDNA has the most Europeans on there. I have many possible Russian, Latvian, Estonian and Polish cousins. Do buy those 2 DNA tests.
I haven’t taken a DNA test but I did see a census from the early 1900s with my ancestors and the country/ area where they came from was listed as Slovakian/ Hungarian. I was always told my grandfather’s family was from Czech/ Slovakia. I know it’s roughly the same area but they didn’t recognize country borders back then which is the same idea as how it’s so many different countries today.
There wasn’t any conclusive borders or countries hundreds of years ago, people migrated all over the baltics and eastern europe so it’s hard to pin down which exact country we would know it as today, but they can make an estimated guess which is normally pretty accurate on the regions etc
It's very hard to pinpoint a country. Genealogy is different than political country divided by lines. Genealogy is closely more related to geography (a bit politic).
The background music alone is absolutely quenching
Your brother and his microphone is hilarious 🤣
This is lit 🔥🔥🔥
Did she have the gene for dyed blonde hair?
If your DNA test is from AncestryDNA, they do update your results when they receive more DNA samples.
You should try the 23 & me kit. They tend to be more accurate on eastern European where ancestry kits are better for western Europe.
Also, even though they will give you initial numbers for your ancestry, they will make an adjustment in 2 or 3 weeks, and give you more defined results. Both Ancestry and 23 & me do this. The first results are a "best guess" and the update in 2 or 3 weeks is a more narrowed down.
Ancestry updates as more people add their dna. so you dont have to take another one if that is the company you used. I imagine its the same for other companies
I have Apache and viking Dna. I am Brazilian.
When you look at the history of world migration, one should not be surprised at the results of any genealogy test.
this is so cool
congrats from brazil
All these countries were in the past one country, Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth - posses Lithuania,Latvia, Estonia, Belarus, Ukraine, Poland, some part of Slovakia, then it was split between Russia/Prussia and Austro-Hungarian Empire, Austro-Hungarian EMpire was very big itself and people in that time could move easily to different regions inside of it. You need to read historical books of this part of Europe to understand it all, beside it sad origin of all Slavic people ( west, east and south) are from area of today Poland/Belarus/Ukraina /Slovakia and Czech (which was called Bohemia or Moravia)
I’m mostly Irish and English with some distant Swedish and French Canadian. My family tree confirms it. I was shocked I had northern irish results though but probably shouldn’t be considering more than half of them left Ireland in the early 1700s.
them all being confused as to where and what baltic is 💀💀
Did I hear her pronounce Baltics As Ballistics ?????
There countries and regions mostly all of them are regions
that’s so cool!!!
Am I the only one who is curious what the other 17% was!?! 😂
Before the Peace of Westphalia (1648), borders where not a definite thing. Traditionally people organize themselves in clans and tribes and families that gave willing or otherwise allegiance to warlords. The borders changed depending on Kings and wars. There is war over Ukraine now. The fall Ottoman Empire caused chaos and the borders of central Europe were less fixed until post WWII settled. After the fall of the USSR and the Berlin Wall, a lot of small countries reappeared and some disappeared. Having grown up during the Cold War the dissolution of Sarajevo and Yugoslavia stunned me. Yugoslavia only existed from 1918 to 1992. Seventy Four years. I've known several people older than that.
Just want to correct a bit here: you SHARE DNA with people in all those countries (because you're all from a common origin) and began 'adapting' from there on - it's NOT that you have collected ancestors from all those countries. It's that your ancestors dispersed to all those countries. So your DNA report looks complicated, when, it's just the opposite. Those countries are 'artificial' borders that separate groups of people that are genetically very similar. (As a west european I am envious of slavic shoulders, arms, and legs, which are less admixed with 'earlier' groups and less subject to selection pressure against height in agrarian mediterranean (warm) europe.) Historically there are three 'races' that created Europeans: the spectrum of European hunter-gatherers from Spain to the Urals (first). The Anatolian farmers (second). And the Steppe Herders: indo Europeans (third). This set of admixtures (hybridizations) resulted in really obvious subraces in europe: the R1b (west), R1a (east), and north and South I1,I2. On a map, southern-greco-italian-anatolian, western european, central german (mixed), and slavic peoples are all obvious. What we see is that the langauge groups: balto-slavic(east), germanic(west), celt-iberian (latin), all expanded in a band across europe the way the english and scotts irish expanded in a band across america. Contrary to current mythology, europeans are more homogenous than any other group outside of japan and korea. The difference is our variation in coloring and neoteny signal greater differences than exist otherwise.
Love u bro
Ballistics?
The results are given in one group from all the smaller countries because there is only a small data base from these areas. Not enough tests have been done to separate the individual countries from each other.
I was very surprised how few in my test, but then again I wasn't. But who cares about ethnethticity anyway? Its not your nationality so much it is much more your culture. Over a long time, culture is more fluid but in the short term, say 2-300 years, culture is very important and the way the world is destroying culture today, at such a pace, is criminal.
Ancestry is the best dna kit out there. Also its impossible to pinpoint the exact country because dna has no borders. The country's might be different culturally but they are simular genetically. Ethnicity estimates are far from a perfect science and will constantly change through the years as their dna database grows so in a few years you may be just from a few countrys.
Yes its comparing you to samples from modern populations in those countries. I.e the average Northern French person will have x amount of germanic, celtic or Latin ancestry (all very vague terms but its just to illustrate).
So comparing your own markers with those samples will give you an estimation of your ancestry. It's not an exact science but it is very interesting. It does only apply to about 10 generations back though but thing is once you get back a few centuries you end up being descended from pretty much everyone who lived at that time and had children just due to the mathematics of reproduction. For example if you had only a single European ancestor a few generations back you would also be descended from the majority of Europeans that lived in 1000AD.
Its why so many people can trace ancestry back to Kings and other famous people from the time - you could do the same for most common people as well but there aren't usually records for them so people only notice the Kings and Nobility.
I knew that I was at least 25% Irish, and I had Some English and British from Colonial times and some PA Dutch (German from the 1700's) I also thought that most of my makeup would be German, but I was wrong. I'm 25% Irish, 17% Scottish 34% English and 25% Ashkenazi Jewish. Come to find out that my dad was raised by his stepfather who was German, but Dad was not German he was English and Jewish. I even figured out who his genetic Father was, and he admitted to me. So, my Jewish Family came from Bessarabia (Moldavia/Ukraine) and Romania. No German here, just a German last name.....
"I was SHOCKED to find that my DNA was mostly Eastern European. As I said to my Polish Dad - wasn't expecting THAT!"
You should talk as many of you're family members as are willing to be tested, especially the men. But I suggest you use DNA consultant's testing company with Dr Donald Yates, for I Believe he can tell you what other companies can't for he's a forensic sciencist, not a geneticist.
Then you could do a comparison video of what DNA Consultant's says compared to what Ancestry said.
So why was the couch dude speaking into a microphone?
Mine came back. 99% Eastern European Jewish (Belarus, Ukraine ) and 1% German. 😳
And the borders of the countries move around over the centuries.
...and so do the people over the course of hundreds of years.
I could tell just by looking at you that you are of Slavic/Baltic Eastern European stock by the way you look with your facial features alone. It's undeniable where your roots come from.
You have to remember that until fairly recently most of these smaller Countries were part of what was then called The USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) so I am not too surprised.
23 AND ME AND ANCESTRY YOU CAN TAKE YOUR RESULTS AND DOWNLOAD IT TO MY HERITAGE AND THEN IT WILL BREAK IT DOWN
My Daddy is 99.98% Slovak laughing 😂
Hi dear you good?
If both of your parents are from Ukraine so the results are pretty accurate because it shows that you are very slavic, also, the baltic part its pretty common for western slavic people i believe.
AncestryDNA says my ethnicity is from 13 countries on 3 continents. Two(USA, Africa) I already knew about but the third(western Europe) I should have suspected. And to think if I'd been assigned to Europe and hooked up with someone from England, Wales, Norway it could have been a distant cousin. But knowing my dad it could've turned out to be a half-sister.
Hi there, it only means that Russian army was very busy to “free” all those small countries that became the soviet block latter on.
DNA isn’t exact. People have historically moved around. The bigger categories like ‘Eastern Europe’ is all you can trust. I am 100% UK with a notional split of Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales, but the percentages of each changes with each Ancestry update.
I agree with more percentage and not group as one
There is nothing shocking in your results - in this part of Europe borders changed many times during centuries. West Ukraine till 1918 was part of Austrian-Hungary Empire (as Hungary, Slovakia and Czechia), then till 1939 was part of Poland, after 1945 became part of Soviet Union. Baltic States were part of Russia till 1918 and part of Soviet Union after 1945, part of Lithuania was in borders of Poland between 1920 and 1939.
I associate your results with the map of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from the 18th century - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partitions_of_Poland#/media/File:Polish-Lithuanian_Commonwealth_in_1772.PNG
Scandinavian would be my guess....northern European
I can see the Russian in you, very very very very very very Stronger for real, my Friend.
The borders for those countries have moved so often.
My results , shared information that was very educational,
My DNA reads like the history of the UK. 52% Irish/Scottish/Welsh (Celts), 30% English (Anglo Saxons), 12.8% Scandinavian (Vikings) and the remainder northern France (Normans).
Mine from Germany. Two thirds German, one quarter Swede, the rest northern European. Blond haired, blue eyed.
The countries might be different, and independent but the populations have common roots, that's why they show up.
Are you originally from russia?
First gen in America, parents are originally from Ukraine
@@vanessindistresss Sending my Best Wishes , to those poor people & animals suffering in the Ukraine. From the U.K. x
Nothing surprising in that. That area was the cradle of origin for the area. Wars were fought, won or lost, for centuries. Some people were displaced and didn't return to their birth place. Kings and fathers sent sons and daughters off to solidify trade agreements. Kings sent ambassadors off to solidify an ally. People moved around for education opportunities. There were also Gypsies that moved around a lot. It just simply means your DNA is linked to many in those areas. It isn't surprising since that area has over 700 years of recorded history. Ukraine dominated the area for awhile. Poland and the Mongolians did as well before Russia was able to take over.
17% ballistics 🤨
You're 83% Eastern European and 17% Baltic. Exactly what is so shocking about your results?
Screw you Mike Pence. You is a clown 🤡
Did you see the amount of communities she has!
Guess she is surprised by the amount of countries but they are a bunch of small countries grouped together
Have your parents or even older generations do the test like grandparents.
Try the my heritage site. They're really cool. If you find out there is any Jewish they will give you a free year or two
Hi dear
My first analyses listed 7, each 'more detailed update' since then it's got less, now it's just 3.............
Hi from Ukraine :) Cool video
you are NOT from all those countries, this is just the 'similarities to what they have in their database. It is also NOT scientific.
Maybe look at a map of Europe, lots of those countries had their borders redrawn after wars.So, what had been part of one larger country, was 100 yrs later a smaller country. Also Europeans have been migrating for hundreds of years, & marrying into different nationalities, that’s why you got the DNA results you did.
So it's 100% Slavic
Slavic is a culture not a race , a DNA test can only tell your race not your culture , in her case DNA test can only determine that she's White European . Ancestry and all those labs are ripping people off .
Yeah a bunch of tiny countries grouped together
I thought the Baltics were not Slavs, you have different information?
Baltic people are not considered Slavs, they seem to be a bit more Scandinavian.
@@williamrafferty3188 Scandinavian? No! We have some similarity to Finns (whom are not Scandinavian and have Dna very diffrent from Swedes, Danes and Norwegians), but as much as we hate to admit it Lithuanians and Latvians are closer to slavs (west and east, south slavs are more greek-like). Don't call us slavs tho. Baltic people have suffered a lot because of slavs (more specifically Russians).
The truth is that you should look at how long those countries have actually existed what they were before etc etc. probably a lot to do with why it's all bunched together . When it comes to ancestry regions are probably more definitive than actual countries depending on how many generations your looking at. Also an important tidbit is that your DNA and your brothers and your sisters will all show different things because you inherit different things so even if say you were Russian and Irish you might not actually inherit any Irish but your brother or your sister would but they might not inherit as much Russian . I'm oversimplifying a bit(alot) but my point is that there are recessive genes that are sometimes active and sometimes they're not , so you can have the same parents and the same ancestry but genetically you could inherit something very unexpected or unknown or just surprising.
100 percent cool ❤️ Keep Jesus First, Faith ,Love and Hope
They have changed my regions 4 times each time i get a higher percentage of French. They still cant figure out what I am.
Guess what. You sound very American to me. Of course your accent, but I mean very much your attitude!!!
You need to do a tree with a paper trail to find out which of those countries your ancestors came from. Your tree will be the same for you and your siblings, but your percentages will not. Each person needs to take the test to see what their percentages are.
Or, she could just ask her POLISH DAD and her POLISH GRANDPARENTS who probably remember where their own grandparents came from. No need for a "paper trail" - just CALL THE FAMILY!
I thought dna tests were more about the ethnic origins not geo political countries which are man made.
You don't need to retake and AncestryDNA test as they update their results every few years.
I’m from 5 but I’m 71% British.
17% balistics holy shit how can you say something like that and not think about it a bit :DDD
"17% ballistics" The Baltics are mad.

Did she just say Balistic's?? instead of Baltic's? LoL
Slavic women 😉👍
Ancestry DNA sends updates.
Potatoes on the rack in the back, just can't get more Slavic than that!
Mine came back 99.1 Irish, who knew , don't even have an Irish name.
