Baltic - 1.6%
So they use a different methodology to Ancestry? Do they not calculate English regions? It is more interesting obviously 
I wanted to mostly check a lot of matches on there. |
Well I got charged £34 so a bit miffed if they're now charging only £29 a couple of months later.
As to the ethnicity results, they list me as being 0% English when there is absolutely no chance of that so I would suggest their pool used for ethnicity isn't very wide. If it wasn't for some of the matches on there, I'd have thought they were somebody else's. That said I do get a lot of Scandinavian matches and they said I had some Finnish in me which was news, but subsequently got a match on Ancestry whose ancestors are 100% Swedish so there is definitely some in my ancestors somewhere, just not entirely sure which side.
