I have a different ancestry composition when I compare my results to relatives. Why is that?

Maybe the relative has an older chip and it shows how my result would have looked like on the older chip?

I don't know, never saw anything like this. 20% south European?? Must be midpoint calculation.
At least you get central Asian and Slavic there, also interesting small British&Irish they assigned you, could be from Norman ancestry.

about 9% South European would be from my father as 9% are missing on the asian categories.

In my opinion it resembles exactly a G25 midpoint calculation, very strange. I wonder if this will remain until I get my results so I can check this out.

Do you like this result more? You could mail their customer service to ask what is all this about.

Yes, it should be 5.2

Try this one, maybe you can see even the previous update in v4.

Well at least I know now that the Central-Asian is hidden in the West Asian components. Same goes for East-European in German.
