    That "French and German" is Anglo-Saxon DNA. Since you have no recent locations, it's highly likely that's misread Anglo-Saxon DNA, not recent ancestors from that area. English people tend to score that amount of F&G (especially from South East England).

    It makes since why British people will have some German and French DNA because of migration and mixing between those cultures.

      Unless you know the family history you never know. The English actress Kate Beckinsale looks “white” but she has Burmese ancestry. Her ancestor was a British officer stationed in Burma and he married a Burmese woman. So she has a bit of Asian DNA and so do her kids.
      I looked it up and Kate is 1/8 Burmese. So her kids are 1/16 (6%)Burmese. While 1% may be an artifact, you can’t rule out a distant ancestor had an unlikely story.

    I took ancestry. It changes percentages so I'll give broadly range.
    30-50% English.
    5-15% Welsh.
    10-20% Scottish.
    0-10% German.
    3-17% Norwegian.
    8-28% Irish.
    And I am giving broad ranges because ancestry changes the percentages of my results for 3 years.
    These are my broadly British isles results. Along with some German (Anglo-Saxon?) And Scandinavian (Viking?) And English (Celtic and Anglo-Saxon?) And Welsh (Brythonic?) Scottish (Pictish) and Irish (Gaelic?) Results. With origins I presume have differing origins.
    I am American btw
    My only issue with dna tests is they like to give me broad ranges whereas they give everyone else smaller ranges.
    I guess it's fair. Northwest Europeans in France, Germanic speaking areas and Celtic speaking areas are mostly genetically similar.
    All share a common Bronze Age ancestor the Bell-beakers from the lower Rhine and Lowlands area.
    But my criticism aside I loved my dna test.
    I'm considering taking LivingDNA because they can tell you each individual county.
    I also loved how I'm an American and I'm like 100% British isles or people that invaded the British isles being a part of everyone's dna for a thousand years anyway (Germanic Europe in ancestry which means Germany and Netherlands which could be German great grandmother I have or more Anglo-Saxon likely both) and Norwegian.
    So I'm almost pure British from a certain "dna is like most tests I saw British results are" point of view. Usually Welsh and English Brits though sometimes I check on Scottish tests.
    Anyway I am a American. Though my dna test showed I'm Uber British isles "Anglo-Celtic" stock.

    You're actually more British the most British. Average white UK resident is a 36.94% British, 21.59% Irish and 19.91% Western European (French/German). The rest is spread around more - the most common are Scandinavia (9.20%), the Iberian Peninsula (Spain/Portugal) (3.05%), and Italy and Greece (1.98%).
    I'm of, theoretically, English descent on my paternal grandfather's side. Yet it's a terribly minor part of my genealogy (about 6%). See, my British family came over during the Norman conquest. And they, mostly, intermarried with Norman-English not Anglo-Saxon English. So I got a lot of Scandinavian from them with only a smattering of Anglo-Saxon. The Scots-Irish grandmother was all Scots-=Irish. My mother's side is German (Alsace-Lorraine), Austrian and Ukrainian.

    The Normans invaded England and won, in 1066, as you probably already know. Hence MAYBE your French ancestry. Maybe even your Danish one: the Normans had invaded France a few centuries before.And «Normands» means «hommes du Nord» = Men from the North.

    When it says you are a particular percentage of a certain ethnicity, it means that your DNA is similar to people in that location. So your Irish would be Irish only if your DNA would be similar to other people who have ancestry from Ireland. But since ethnicity does not mean nationality, it means that you would match with similar from Ireland, in Ireland now.
    It shows mine as
    77.9% British/Irish,
    18.1% French/German.
    Eastern Europe .6%,
    Ashkenazi Jew .2%,
    Broadly Northwestern Europe 1.9%,
    Trace Ancestry 1%
    Unassigned .1%
    Now here is the thing, Germany had made it illegal to do DNA testing, because they did not want scientific testing of ethnicities, so Germans had to go to other countries. There are very few German samples. So while one of the commenters here says the French/German is Anglo-Saxon, not necessarily because I know that I have a great-father from Bavaria, but it doesn't show samples from Bavaria. I have another great-grandfather from Ireland.
    The Ashkenazi Jew is minor, meaning it was a long time ago but Ashkenazi Jew is a specific ethnic group that does have unique markers. And since it also shows Eastern Europe, then I can reasonably assume that my Jewish ancestor or ancestress was in an Eastern European country because the DNA is similar to other Ashkenazi Jewish people in Eastern Europe. This does not make me Ashkenazi Jewish, it means simply I have similar markers as they do.

    The Crusaders are sometimes known for coming back to Europe with Muslim wives.
    The fact you have North African and South Asian or whatever it was. I immediately concluded its one of the known and forgotten times a Muslim women was kidnapped, raped and married into a family of a European crusader who returned to Europe. I assumed this is where your results came from.
    Though it did say south and Central. So if we assumed that's a grouping, it's possible to have a ancestor who has dna from Central Asians (assuming the south Asian part is a grouping and you have no Indian ancestry) I know from history Turks came from the Central Asia and moved into middle-east and north Africa. There's a Mamluk dynasty of Berber Turk mix origins. Perhaps your a descendant of a Mamluk who fits the genetic profile I mentioned.

      Impossible. The crusades were 1000 years ago, if she did have an ancestor from North Africa or Pakistan back then it wouldn't even be 0.01% of her DNA today, it would have been filtered out within a few generations of the original ancestor since this DNA would have had virtually no presence in British people especially at that time so it would basically just get halved and halved again with each generation until it's gone or reintroduced / built upon by another ancestor with this DNA that's how genetic inheritance works. There's a million possible theories for how she ended up with this DNA, if it's even accurate as 23andme is known to throw a completely random curve ball like that at anyone with too much European DNA.
