Have you ever made a DNA test to figure out your heritage?

Yes, 'Eastern European' and depending which way the political winds were blowing at the time, either Polish, Prussian or Russian...

in many places, your sur name was either that of your village or your occupation.
One great grandfather was conscripted to the Prussian army and another to the Russian army.

Our sur name was 'Chojnicki' and in that fluid border, there STILL exists the ruins of a 'Chojnick' castle.
Therefore once upon a time, my great grandparents worked at 'Chojnick' castle and became 'Chojnicki'.

I am sure you aren't 100 % Nigerian xd Seriously. I also thought that I'll have only Turkish/Persian results, then I got Greek/South Italian and Finnish too

Oh, dang.
I did want to get a DNA Test awhile back, but my parents reassured me that I am 100% Nigerian from the Igbo tribe.
They even offered to show me the graves of my ancestors in the village. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lmaoo your parents are unique, that's also an option. It's really impossible that you're 100 % from just one nation :)

*confused woman meme* it's a dna test, you order it and get a kit, then you put your saliva in a bottle and just send it back... you get your results within 3 weeks. If you want I can give you more details and show you my results (detailed). But you're anonymous xd

It costs 100 dollars...
IAMNathanael

Yeah I know, but my amount of curiosity doesn't match a 100$ price tag. Someday... someday.
