    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.

    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.
