Got my Ancestry DNA results back today. Mildly surprised as my results were 60% Europe East, 27% Scandinavian, 8% Finnish as my major ancestries and 5% Europe West, 1% Great Britain as my trace ancestries. I always thought I was half German, and I still am, I mean my grandparents were born there, but I guess I descend from the Germanicized Wends and Prus. I didn't even know what the Wends were before reading up on them today. Makes the Nazi propaganda even more asinine when you realize that over half of Germany wasn't even genetically "German". They were the same genetic stock as the Poles and Russians they viewed as inferior and worthy of extermination.
How much does that cost? I've been personally very curious myself of my actual DNA traces. I only have come to know I am 25% Italian, and 12.5% Norwegian, 37.5% British/Irish(combine both for simplistic sake). Would like to know the missing 25% and the proper exactness of my Italian, Scandinavian, British, and Irish heritage.
