My EE regions are only semi accurate
I got east Prussian ancestors from Masuria but not get the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship region insteas I got Podlaskie Voivodeship, but its not that huge of a distance.
Omsk is most likely accurate based on German PoWs in Gulags there.
According to DNA Tribes my top 3 are Czechs, Slovenes, Slovaks; the Slavic Triangle:

That has nothing to do with German POWs. They didn't stay in the camps anyway, were either released or died there.

Doesn't even have anything to do with the Soviet Union. The history of Germans in Russia began back in the 18th century and it was not until 1941 when they were deported en masse to Kazakhstan.Quote:
History
The first villages in what is now Azovsky Nemetsky National District were founded in 1893 by the Volga Germans.
I am not pure, just neither Russian nor Polish as 23&me says. Ukrainian should be right and I try to research possible Romanian origins of my mother's grandparents.

Thanks for sharing. I can tell you that your North European is very low for an East Slav (or for a Pole too for that matter) and also the Caucasus is somewhat high (almost 15%). Other than that nothing extraordinary.

You can ignore PL_GreaterPoland, it's just Peterski's family ;) You are shifted towards Hungary and Moldova but then again the UA average is mostly based on Northern Ukraine (NW & NE) except for one Chernovtsy sample.
