You have to look at what is common for Dutch people in general. So in this case 61.9% of Dutch people have North/West European, 54.4% have Scandinavia, 42.8% have English, 11.9% have Eastern European, 10.3% have Iberian .... 7.5% have Balkan ... 5.3% have Irish/Scottish/Welsh. So your results are not that atypical for a Dutch person, except the Balkan is a bit more than expected, so that would be something to look into, but the others I would say is pretty typical for a Dutch person.
@@the11382 I would say probably not since I believe the test would ask for your ethnic background and whatever country you live in wouldn’t really matter.
@@skitotrachia3361 what will that say? im from Balkan but ilm suprised he have 20%,, i mean we are white but we dont move much before to different countries and we dont mix much with other nations
Well for Scandinavian part I am not shocked, I mean it is believed that all of Germanic people stem from the region of what is today southern Sweden and Denmark. Plus do no forget the Viking raids. In general, our ancestors were much more mobile than we think, and mass migrations were even more common. Balkan is indeed a high percentage, and at a first glance one could say that you look South Slavic (Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian/Slovenian/Montengrin/Macedonian) as well. So, dig in your family tree :)
You definitely have Scandinavian blue eyes/and Face.. I am 95% Scandinavian, the rest being Finnish and Sami people (Scandinvian aborigines?). But those mixes are probably something happening 500-1000 years ago. I suppose the Netherlands have been a part of Europe where people moved by a lot, being traders etc.

interesting results, high Balkan percentage is not common in Western Europe, it is rather surprising. Its somewhat common within Germans so you might have some ancestors from there. Cheers from Balkan.

I am also Dutch on my mother’s side, and my DNA results came back with a significant percentage Norwegian. As it turns out, there is a history of Norwegians coming to Noord Holland in the 1600s and 1700s for job opportunities, mostly in shipping to and from the Dutch colonies.
I understand why people call me Dutch descent, but sometimes it looks like I'm from Finland, England, Portugal and other European countries. means the Dutch are also a mixture of other European nations.
No they're not. For Dutch people England or other British parts often appear in DNA tests due to the old Viking raids who had offspring on the island. The Dutch descent from the Northmen and through their lineage, and thanks to their viking raids, our DNA is spread across the continent. Finnish is a possible result for an average Dutchman due to Finland being close to Norway and Sweden, but Portuguese is just unusual.
I was born in Brazil. and i am 84% Asian Japonise.............. And my dad is italian and my mom is Brazilian, But my grams mom was japonise........... and i didnt know.
Our granddaughter had similar results, plus Italian ... from my wife and her dad... and I have a Dutch surname and my uncle was part of the Dutch society. ...
Koster zit ook in mijn stamboom (een overgrootmoeder heette zo). Die helemaal 100% in Nederland zit (heb ALLES terug kunnen vinden vanaf ca 1500). Veel Koster in Rotterdam (havenstad, trok veel mensen vanuit Europa die oceaan over wilden), veel Koster in regio Vijfherenland. Dat Engels en Balkan zal wel door de oorlogen komen, die hier altijd geweest zijn. Er werden in bepaalde regio's altijd veel soldatenkinderen geboren.
I find it interesting how people can have a great mix in their ancestry and how big surprises may come in. I have an aunt who traced my family history. I now live in the Netherlands, but I come from South Africa. My first ancestor who set foot in South Africa on my mom/aunt's side was a Java woman who came to South Africa with a Dutch man... it is believed he was some kind of royalty I'm not sure the exact details (my grandmother's maiden surname is Jonker so it is from that side). My grandmother used to say things in Afrikaans that is very dutch. Instead of reën (Afrikaans for rain), she would say reënt( which is closer to regent as in het regent it is raining). So that's interesting. Her mother was born in a concentration camp, they lost everything. My grandfather came from Germany (surname Hattingh) where they owned a lot of land. They then moved to England where they purchased land and from England to South Africa where they again purchases a few farms one of which was the well known La Motte wine farm (for a long time has not been in our family). During the English/Boer war the English left my grandfather's parents estates alone because they spoke English very well and seemed all too English. By that time they were actually speaking Afrikaans as mother tongue in their household and not English anymore yet they still passed very well as English people and was so able to stay out of hardship... So very interesting. I came to the Netherlands as an Afrikaans/English native speaker and my daughter is now speaking Dutch in school but if she did a heritage test one day thinking she is Dutch (which she is somewhat), it would have very interesting results!
I myself am Dutch, but my Herritage says 63.4% Scandinavian, most of Norway and the rest of Northern Europe, mainly Frisian. 36.6% So it's not that crazy.
You look extremely pale, so it's not surprising your Northern European (Scandinavia). Plus it's also possible that your ancestors were Nomadic so yeah...
I am not sure about heritage dna, how accurate it is, I have just done an ancestry test so it will be interesting to compare the two, mine also said I have 18% balkan, and as far as I know I am half english and half scots, its complicated
Dutch too. I was surprised I do not have any north and north West European DNA. The big majority of the Dutch share this. Instead I got 81% Brittish DNA, which basically says nothing because many etnicities lived there. I got some scandinavian which is common to the Dutch, but way lower than average. Also I do have Finish DNA, which is not common within the Dutch. I still have no clue about 81% my etnicity 😂
My grandpa immigration wise is 75 Dutch and 25 Swiss with one ancestor a little further back that we don’t know where is from but he took a dna test and it came back 18 percent Scandinavian 72 percent Germanic which would be Dutch and Swiss and then there was a little Scottish and English

@@MrBesseggen Aren’t we all Germanic siblings/cousins? We all speak Germanic languages. Our East Germanic cousins are gone, but the West Germanic languages that came from Old English, Old Frisian, Old Saxon, Old Dutch, and Old German, and the North Germanic languages that came from Old Norse, are still here. That’s why our languages are similar. By the way, it seems that, between 1820 and 1925, as many as 860,000 Norwegians emigrated from Norway to the U.S. My grandfather recently did this same MyHeritage DNA test and his results showed 35.3% Scandinavian, although I don’t know if that might be Norwegian, Danish, or Swedish, because even more Swedes than Norwegians immigrated to the U.S.
@@MrBesseggen A fun thing I recently learned on the linguistic front is that Old English shared a certain letter called thorn, which now only exists in Icelandic, with Old Norse and Old Swedish.

@@MrBesseggen Sorry for the rambling comments, hopefully you’ll find them interesting and not a bother.

I did my DNA test with Ancestry, I discovered that not only am I decended from John D Rockefeller but also King Edward VIII and Bessie Wallis Simpson Warfield.
The "North and West European" probably contains the Dutch. MyHeritage is not so specific with that part of Europe, however 23andMe is, here is an example: th-cam.com/video/juS44JdUWNY/w-d-xo.html It has the category "French & German" he clicked it and the highest match was The Netherlands, and within that it even tells the specific regions the DNA matches most in Nederland. Unfortunately I don't think people can order 23andMe in Europe. I also took AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and MyHeritage. The latter was by far the most vague with Western Europe. It's ironic, the one Europeans use the most, is the most vague with Western Europe.
Before hearing your results I would say, apart from the Dutch, possibly some German, some Scandinavian, Russian and British Isles. After getting your results I see I was more or less spot on. Hurrah!
By the way It doesn't matter where you're from. The important thing is what kind of person you are. And you're the most friendly I've ever met. Finally, your eyes look like balkan people, but you don't look like Greece, you look Bulgarian or Bosnian shoves.
Waarschijnlijk is Balkan bij Myheritage ook Duitsland. Mijn stiefoma had ook meer dan 15% Balkan en ze is gewoon Nederlands wel heeft ze deels roots in Duitsland mishien jij ook. Wat zijn je genetische groepen die zijm best accuraat

Unfortunately I don't think people can order 23andMe in Europe. I also took AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and MyHeritage. The latter was by far the most vague with Western Europe. It's ironic, the one Europeans use the most, is the most vague with Western Europe.
There is no individual result for Dutch, people there are a mix of people from Scandinavia and mainland Europe.
That is true!
Before hearing your results I would say, apart from the Dutch, possibly some German, some Scandinavian, Russian and British Isles. After getting your results I see I was more or less spot on. Hurrah!
Try Ancestry or 23andme and you will be a way more dutch than you think.
I loved your eye color :)
By the way It doesn't matter where you're from. The important thing is what kind of person you are. And you're the most friendly I've ever met. Finally, your eyes look like balkan people, but you don't look like Greece, you look Bulgarian or Bosnian shoves.
You have Balkan looks... you're actually really lucky with that Balkan % 😉
im guessing french, greek and italian.. maybe some iberian?
I'm from Balkan.
I expect Danish or French.. I'm just not sure, it's really kinda interesting. 😁
Wow, I'm not that wrong.🤓
Hahaha nice one! Hope you liked the video again. ❤️
@@DylanKoster Of course, as always! 💙
Waarschijnlijk is Balkan bij Myheritage ook Duitsland. Mijn stiefoma had ook meer dan 15% Balkan en ze is gewoon Nederlands wel heeft ze deels roots in Duitsland mishien jij ook. Wat zijn je genetische groepen die zijm best accuraat
It is not very common to receive Balkan as a Dutch. Do you any Ex-Yugoslavian/Hungarian/Romanian ancestor?
No! Not that we know of 😅
Maybe you forefathers were from Oost-Europa and married with Some Dutch people in the Netherlands centuries ago.
You are Georgian
You really look norwegian not gonna lie😅
No
I think the Balkan side you are from Croatia or Slovenië
Thought you had an English look to you
You are not a Dane Mr. Koster, you are a Norse, be proud.
You is Dutch man
You are very similar to my cousin.😂
Haha I do? 😂 Maybe he's part Balkan too? Haha
@@DylanKoster 😂😂
Open een geschiedenisboek en je zal het gauw genoeg begrijpen ;)
At least you don't have strong Dutch accent
Thank god haha 😂 hope you enjoyed!
Dylan Koster I did enjoy ) added you in isntagram)
MyHeritage is the most innacurate DNA testing company out there.
I agree, just got my results today
Scandinavian and British are common mistakes MyHeritage makes as it comes to determine Dutch origins.
Because “Dutch” isn’t actually a ethnicity apparently
This is a fact a lot of people dont know. During the 16- and 1700s there was en emigration wave from Norway to the Netherlands. More than 100 000 people migrated. Alot of Danes also settled in the Netherlands.
In Norway we consider Sweden, Iceland, Denmark and Finland to be our Brothers. The dutch are somewhat like our first cousins. There are lots of similaritires between our languages.
Ahahhahha 😂
😂 loved my fathers reaction as well. Haha. Have a nice weekend Turap!
@@DylanKoster His reaction was funny 😂 have a nice day too but i hope you answer to me on social medias more 👁️👁️😄
Allochtoon :)
1:13 naaah not like all Germanics actually originate (proto germanic) from Scandinavia and Jutland right.
lmfao
@Aziz Yigido hirvat?
Without watching the video I can tell he is from 🏳️🌈
You are not dutch:))
maybe you must test DNA again... I think you have some Indonesian dna or Austroasiaitic from Java or Austronesian from Molucas ??
Croatian and Slovenian most likely due to the Catholic.
