Cool results! I took a DNA test from the same company as you a while back ago in 2023 and I was surprised by my results as well.

[@C.Vitalizio]

it's interesting that someone so cautious about their privacy did a dna test in the first place. Do you give your real name when you do the test or is it anonymous?

[@michaelsommers2356]

The way these tests work is to sample several thousand sites in your genome, and comparing the results to a huge database of people from all over the world. The more people in their database, the more accurate the results. The results can be quite accurate, or less so, depending. For instance, the test narrowed my Irish ancestors to the same part of County Wexford that I know they did come from, from family stories and from research in the records. On the other hand, the test said that I have 8% Germanic ancestry, when it should, genealogically, be over 25%, and it has them coming over primarily from Friesland, when all my most recent German forbears came from Rhein-Pfalz. Another thing to keep in mind is that the results do not necessarily show ancestry, but rather show common DNA, which could have been found in very distant cousins. Norwegians were notorious in the distant past for going a-viking, and leaving various offspring behind, who have spread their Viking heritage down to the present.

[@GhostSoldierHD1]

[@pepegotera8598]

Well, from the Persians the Scythians emerged and from the Scythians the Slavic peoples, by the way, the Scandinavians are not genetically European, they are Slavs.

[@roxpace]

When I checked ny DNA at MyHeritage I get over 30% Norwegian heritage, and most Swedish and around 8% Finnish as well, still I know my daughter is atleast 50% Norweigan I am not sure for myself. So I did also check at Ancestry and 23andMe and I got very different results, still very Swedish, even more at these and much less Norwegian, almost nothing there. Ancestry is often the best to use for Nordic DNA research, but I recommend to do atleast two of these and compare the result.

[@CreateYourFateBrazil]

67% Scottish 25% Irish 4 Welsh 2% Norwegian 2% Northwestern Europe (they did not specify but I have a feeling it’ll be German) Norwegian being as low as 2% means any relations I had would’ve been close to or over 1000 years ago 🤯 which means it would have been before beautiful Norway was even independent! It still feels nice to know I have ancestors that got to see more than the boring UK 😂 even if it was over 1000 years ago

[@brstahl]

I took it. 99.5% Scandinavian (mainly Norway, some from the border areas with Sweden that have changed nationality depending on who won various wars) and .5% Finnish.

[@ECytchannel]

I wonder how far back in time this specific DNA test goes, 2000 years maybe?

[@dr2okevin]

endless, but getting less and less specific. It actually just shows that you have genes which are more common on one place than on another. But it doesn't have to mean that you got the genes from there. Some genes can develop independent. And as we all mix more and more, every generation gets less accurate. Simplified you share 50% of your mother. And she shares 50% of her mother, so you have 25% of your grandma. It gets less and less with every generation. After 6-7 generations you have only 1% of genes left that one specific ancestor could give you. And you can be at that time a mix of 100 persons from different regions + random mutations.

[@mattesrocket]

it's easy to see all this three elements in the shape of your face.

[@wclk]

As they test more people and do more studies, the tests get a little more accurate. When I first took my test years ago I had some Norwegian and even 1% Central African. Now my results have been a little more steady. 55% English, 23% Scottish, 18% Germanic Europe, 2% Welsh, 2% Irish. I think the English is most surprising because I was able to trace some ancestry to Norman French at the time of the Norman Conquest. I guess that shows that hundreds of years of Anglo-Norman relations ended up just being "English". My Germanic Europe is from more recent migrations of Dutch and German immigrants in the late 1800s to the United States.

[@BAFitz]

This is so interesting, I have to do this :D

[@SonniXD]

I did a DNA test on MyHeritage and one on Ancestry and a Living DNA one for my maternal group... On MyHeritage I'm 30,2% Scandinavian witch one the map covers Norway Sweden and Denmark the other percentages are English and Irish Scottish and Welch and Iberian and Balkans and Baltin ( These aren't in any order 😅) I got many German groups. So I got DNA from all around Germany. For at least the last 4 generations we were definitely all Germans after that I haven't found everyone yet... The older generation I did find are mostly German and Dutch ... My Ancestry DNA Test shows that I'm 81% German and I have 5% Norwegian... I'm not going to look up the others now... Anyways what I wanted to say is that you probably don't get the German in your reading because it might be counted as Norwegian but a lot of Germans get Norwegen readings instead... It's just a theory...

Sunny Dublin was founded by the Vikings as we're a lot of our costal city's Wexford, Waterford the end ford in them was anglosied from fjord. The Isle of Man between the UK and Ireland was part of the kingdom of Norway at one stage and to this was it's parliament Tynwald owes it's origins to that time. We have a strong connection to Norway but at times it's forgot in Ireland.

[@STECKEDDECK]

You said you have Sami heritage, thats probably the finnish part because Sami people also live in finland and are finno-ugric people just like the finnish and not germanic people like norwegians. When it comes to the celtic part - the Vikings from norway setteled in those regions (Dublin for example was founded by vikings), so its very much possible some of your ancestors got in contact with the celtic people there and went back to norway. So all in all, the test makes a lot of sense and im suprised its that accurate. I think i will do one too :)

@@nazrat1st I knew what you meant, but I just couldn’t help myself... Now worries my dude. But yes, the concept of the Middle East has expanded so much that it has been ages since any one referred to any country as being in the Near East. Kind of funny, since the word Asia was once simply the word the ancient Greeks used for the land east of the Aegean Sea, possibly borrowed from the Hittite word for the area, Assuwa, referring to Anatolia. Later they used it not just for Anatolia but the all the areas further east dominated by the Persian Empire, and Anatolia was a relegated from being the actual Asia, to merely being Asia Minor. And now it s barely thought of as Asian at all.

Those Vikings sure got around! The test results that say you are from here or there are based upon combined DNA tests from the people in those regions.

I took the 23 and me DNA test and Ancestry's dna test and compared the 2 they were very similar but there were some differences slightly in the numbers but it didn't have any contradicting information so that's good. I am American but have 0% in my DNA even though I had some of the Mayflower people in my lineage lol. Its fun doing more than one test. These tests dive deeper into locations and more specific percentages to regions. ANCESTRY 28% England & Northwestern Europe, 23% Scotland, 19% Norway, 18% Eastern Europe & Russia, 6% Sweden & Denmark, 5% Germanic Europe, 1% Ireland. 23 AND ME 83.6% Northwestern European- 50.4% British & Irish, 12.8% French & German, 5.9% Scandinavian, 14.5% Broadly Northwestern European, 15.2% Eastern European, 1.0% Ashkenazi Jewish. My Norwegian roots locations or regions say Oslofjord Lowlands and I know that to be right because its where some of my ancestors were born and then it says Rogaland and Buskerud but on the other test it shows Faroe Islands, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden as the primary locations.

MyHeritage is widely known to be the most inaccurate out of the the DNA testing companies. They usually end up underestimating certain ethnicities (like Scandinavian - you are probably more Scandinavian than what the test says) and overestimating other ethnicities (like Finland).

viking is not an ethnicity ;it was a job or culture.

The medieval Norse had quite a few Scottish and Irish slaves. Icelanders have even more British ancestry than mainland Scandinavians because of that. It's also possible that the Finnish ancestry is actually the Sámi ancestry you mentioned, but that MyHeritage isn't able to distinguish them for some reason.

[@STECKEDDECK]

Because finnish and sami are both finno-ugric people and the part of the DNA was probably too small to be more specific.
