Swedish results

Here are my results. I have no known non-Swedish admixture apart from one Belgian ancestor in the 1600s.

As stated in the other thread, MyOrigin results put me as "100% British Isles" cluster. I was hoping for even just a smidgeon of West-Central Europe given that I do have a German line but nah...100% BI.

Getting 100.0% of one particular subcomponent is pretty impressive. On another forum where we compared myOrigins results, the resident Norwegian was surprised by my Scandinavian percentage, evidently greater than his.

I've noticed I have a very solid match from England, so perhaps there is something to that British component after all.

I reckon it is because the vast majority of my ancestors are Irish and Scottish, the latter mostly from places like Fife and Dumfries, so this would certainly lead the calculator/algorithm to see me as quite firmly placed in the British Isles. I've heard that Irish tends to lead to a very high BI and I assume Scottish is likely the same.

Not to say that I am unhappy, merely that the result was so predictable for me and I do feel some disappointment at the German not showing any trace

It might be impressive, but it is not uncommon.

For example, 100% would always occur if you happen to come from one of the reference populations.
