I have no idea. I imagine it is some Indo-European. Possibly Celtic. Might even be more recent.

I know that FTDNA looks back 2000 years, which means that this Western/Central European is part of what used to be the Halstat Culture in Hungary, that were eventually pushed West. In addition, FTDNA doesn't pick up Eastern Europe as it often does with South Slavic groups. The likelihood of it being Slavic is low but still a possibility.

Where from Bulgaria is your mother from? Does she get Eastern Europe in addition to Western Europe?

my grandmother was from bulgaria not my mother
if my granny was alive i would have tested her
my grandmother roots in bulgaria : father sofia mother plovdiv
anyway i saw some other bulgarian results in a forum and some of them score 8-14% west central euro could be celtic stuff
in my mother it probably from her bulgarian non- jew mother and not from her sefhardi father
yes my mother also get 8% eastern europe in addition but bulgarians are partly slavs so it isn't a surprise here .

p.s
i think in you it is a celtic stuff
i score 0% west central euro those genes didn't passed to me but my brother did get some of it 8%

Here's my results. Would be good if they could divide up the British Isles component like other calculators do, but overall It's probably quite accurate.

You always get near half your genes from each parent. It's not your genes that haven't been passed on equally. It is the markers these companies test that haven't been passed on equally. Meaning it is a form of testing bias. If your brother has 8% and you none, it just means that the real figure is somewhere near 0-10% for both of you. These results should never be taken literally. The average of many results is what gives a better picture of admixture, that circumvents these testing biases. As is the case with you and your brother.

I think it is Celtic as well. Or Celtic influenced population. Too early to say for sure.

2% Iberia or West and Central Europe would make much more sense in your case than Southeast Europe.

Southeast Europe includes Italy. So this is Roman admixture.
