Maybe if it's ancient, but it's too large considering the big companies only go back a few centuries in the compositions.

Alot of these ethnic groups they created have genetic overlapping components

I think the calculator is possibly confusing distant Germanic or Bell Beaker influence with Irish, Scottish, Welsh since the British Isles also has a strong Bell Beaker input. Germanic influence is much more likely than British Isles in Romania.

Why do you think that? I think Celtic influence (that is shown as Irish in result) is related with R1b and G haplogroups.

There were Celts in Romania but they were a bit different than the Celts of Ireland and British Isles. The ones in Romania were Hallstatt Celts from central Europe. Celtic was more a of language and culture than a race of people anyway so there are people of somewhat different backgrounds that were called Celts. Despite their differences, all Celts probably share a common Bell Beaker background.

A lot of these have recent ancestry other than the ethnicity you stated for them.

Mine

Eastern Euro

mother
Eastern Euro
68,4%
Balkan

father
Eastern Euro
61,2%
Balkan

Ruslana (Lyzhychko)
https://www.myheritage.com/eurovisio...97-740x429.png

She's half Western Ukrainian half Ural Russian (father born in Ivano-Frankovsk oblast, mother in Sverdlovsk). I'd like to see her GEDmatch, she looks very Eastern but scores no East or Central Asian.

lol. Based on the score of your parents, you should get around 6,5% Baltic. Their ethnicity estimation is really a joke.

Half Crimean Tatar, half Armenian

and unlike 23andme which provides white paper and shows the science behind their ancestry composition report, myheritage does not provide anything like this. They should, because now they look like scam in comparison to 23andme.
