I agree, my new results were vague. Maybe not enough people of my genetic line have done genetic tests? :dunno:

It's not stupid, all of my regions make total sense f.e.

But Greater London is 10 million people of mixed background, the same with Dublin on lower scale.

Irish people get British regions as well without any actual British ancestry. Ancestry does their Genetic Communities better. They are much more accurate.

Every single person I've seen has Greater London as their top region within the UK. I'm glad I didn't waste my money on 23andme.
