Seems like my Scando ancestry just overwrites everything.

For the sake of comparing two people of mostly German descent (you and my mother), her is how my mother scores on AncestryDNA:

My mother's paper trail (82% Western and Southern German, 12% English, 6% Prussian):


Germanic Europe 41%
-Central/SW Germany
-Frankfurt-Rhine-Main

England & NW Europe 38%
-Devon & Cornwall, England
-West Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly

Sweden & Denmark 17%

Eastern Europe & Russia 4%

--------------------

Ancestry's Germanic Europe is very broad, and a good chunk of the Czech Republic, and also Northwestern Hungary tend to score a healthy amount of it. The category seems to be a little too southern-shifted for you to score a lot of it (although 47% ain't too shabby), and it's a little to eastern-shifted for my German mother, overall.

I am a little surprised that you do not get any Eastern Europe and Russia.
