You should select what region you're from https://www.theapricity.com/forum/at...8&d=1686590850 or maybe https://www.theapricity.com/forum/at...9&d=1686590866 are going to be the best for you.

Thanks, but I notice the regional break down ignores my East European ancestry completely. My great uncle`s autosomal DNA is mostly Balto-Slavic according to (uploaded) DNA tests. Also I noticed that his fit goes from good to bad when I change his region to North Western Europe. While it is true that this region shows my main ancestry, it fails to show my minor ancestry.

This is my North West European result:

Fit: 1.514 (Good)

Germanic (AD 700–1000)53.4%

France (AD 130–1400)42.6%

Insular Celt (AD 100–1000)4.0%


And this is my West/ East Slavic and Hungarian result:

Fit: 1.478 (Good)

Germanic (AD 700–1000)74.0%

Balkans (AD 500–1000)24.2%

Magyar1.8%


vs my great uncle

North Western European:

Fit: 5.408 (Bad)

Germanic (AD 700–1000)85.6%

France (AD 130–1400)14.4%


East/ West Slavic and Hungarian:

Fit: 1.489 (Good)

Slavic (AD 540–1270)51.0%

Germanic (AD 700–1000)24.0%

Magyar11.4%

Balkans (AD 500–1000)9.6%

Turkic (AD 650–1200)4.0%

But I said to you that the best region for you would be Central Europe, so why don't you use it?

Still my global results are much better (Fit: 0.964 (Very Good)). Also my great uncle´s results are: just Fit: 3.662 (Moderate). How can I trust it, when it is worse even for my great uncle? But here we go:

Me:

Fit: 1.249 (Good)

Germanic (AD 700–1000)66.2%

Italian (AD 650–1450)19.6%

France (AD 130–1400)10.6%

Slavic (AD 540–1270)3.6%


vs great uncle

Fit: 3.662 (Moderate)


Slavic (AD 540–1270)61.6%

Germanic (AD 700–1000)35.4%

Italian (AD 650–1450)3.0%

Is your great uncle german? The fit doesn't matter that much when it's below 2.0.
