I always made sure the Orkneys and Shetlands retained the Nordic flavour.
This the map of my Ancestry in the Old World. It takes me 2 minutes to recite the nations I have ancestry from.
I played as Britain.
Like a lot of other lizards here, I’m fascinated by my ancestry. Three-quarters is from three fairly disparate regions of Sweden, and one-quarter from Devon and/or Wales (the actual location is unclear). But going back further, the Devon/Wales branch is clearly Celtic, while my mtDNA probably originated somewhere in the Caucasus region. The rest is unknown, since I don’t have that kind of money for a complete panel yet.
In short, my ancient ancestors were migrants or possibly invaders who pushed aside the local residents after their arrival.
