@@rightofcl I know right? DNA is so interesting!! They probably compare other DNA from people who are from Jamaica maybe ? I’m not exactly sure lol, but it’s fascinating. Thanks for watching 😊
@@ThatsPookiie yah that’s exactly what they say but what if someone had similar dna as you from another Caribbean country like Haiti for example - if you guys both have the same percentages of Cameroon, Benin, and Nigerian- how would they know who’s haitian and who’s Jamaican just by your dna? They probably end up going beyond dna and taking names into consideration and trying to find paperwork 🤷♂️ DNA IS VERY FASCINATING THOUGH AND I APPRECIATE how these dna sights can help us learn more about ourselves 💪👍
@@rightofcl lol well they got mine correct cause my family and generations before is from Jamaica 🇯🇲 What you said could possibly be a technique they use though in some cases maybe? Who knows lol 😊
I've done all dna tests (searching for my biological family) but girl, out of all the results I've seen, you are the most African ever. My kids paternal grandma is 92% African America but I think you got her beat... Wow, that's amazing!
she is a african girl period, but i have seen a trinidadian girl that had 100% african, and i have seen african american with up to 97,985 and some rare cases with 100% african dna. there is a youtuber here that managed to track his actual 5.5 generational cousins back in africa, and actually another one that funnily enough was a ghanian living in the same state as him in america, and another one in uk. he had 91% the videos are here on youtube too.
I got 1% Norway, but that is not surprising because of the amount of Scottish I have. I was surprised to see Korea show up and Vietnam. I wasn't surprised about the Chinese, as my family are actually Jamaican Chinese and surname is Chin. I got similar results to you in the African region. Soo cool! Thank you for the video! 😁👍🏽❤️
Ohh okay so are they half Jamaican? They call my grandmother Ms.Chin, that’s because she looks Asian and it’s always been said that her fathers side is some part Korean and there’s Scottish somewhere in there as well. Scotland showed up for me , but not Korean so idk what happened there ! Lol ! Thanks for watching 💕🇯🇲 lol

Hi my Jamican beauty ! When I saw you I was literally thinking that you could be my sister. And surprisingly enough we have an almost identical admixture. I have 53% Nigerian //14% Benin and Togo//14% Bantu//8% Ghana and Ivory coast//2% Mali// 6% Scottish // 2% Welsh// 1% Noorwegian. We are most likely from the Yoruba tribe in Nigeria (also found in Benin and togo) . And that for more than 60% (Yoruba). I am from St Thomas in Jamaica. So besides being Jamaican, I am mainly from the Yoruba tribe in Nigeria-Benin-Togo and maybe even Ghana too . Pretty cool don't you think , knowing which tribe you are from .. After so many hundreds of years in the diaspora . One love
Nigeria and Benin are the same ethnic groups ( Yoruba) Togo and Benin have the Fon people Ghana and Togo have Ewe people Ivory Coast and Ghana have both Akan people Cameroon Gabon Congo And more have same ethnic groups too AFRICA country borders was create by the european. AFRICA is about ethnic groups and tribes. You can find in differet country the same ethnic groups. So DNA IS RIGHT
Togo is an Ewe word Lome is an Ewe word Cotonou is an Ewe word Benin was once called Dahomey. Dahomey is an Ewe/Fon word. Yorubas moving to Benin has only been recent. Less than 60 years
My husband is also Jamaican and we did his DNA through Ancestry and his main country is Nigeria as well then Cameroon Congo! Where in Jamaica is your family from? My husbands mom is from Kingston , father is from St Mary’s
Nice results!!! Do people mingle a lot in Canada? In cities like Toronto or Montreal? Or people kinda stay within their community as it is in the US? Been wondering...
I can only speak on behalf of Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area ( GTA = cities closely surrounding Toronto) I would say people travel around to different communities and cities and come out their own community for sure. For school, work, leisure, events, parties etc. Most people work outside the city they live in anyway. So yeah it’s always a lot of that. Socializing so many different cultures etc ! Hopefully I answered your question. Lol and thanks for watching
@@ThatsPookiie No actually, my bad let me reexpress myself...my question was...:"Do people mixin' up between them? Do they date outside their ethnic group...as you often see in South America( Brasil, Colombia, Venezuela...) Central America (Panama, Belize, Costa-Rica...) PR, Cuba, DR...for the Caribbeans...Europe ( France, UK, Netherlands...) Or do they kinda do like in the US, where people often stay n date within their own community...?? Im not familiar with Canads, reason why Im asking...
@@cariocabassa yes. Lots of it 😂. We’re super open to it and see it all the time. There’s people who do and people who don’t. But it’s not uncommon at all
There has always been a history of Canada and the USA inviting jamaicans to go and work in those countries on work visas.... jamaicans are more reliable and one of the most hard working people on the planet
I was waiting for what countries that came after Nigeria to guess your tribe. You are almost definitely YORUBA. DNA companies are creating a bit of confusion by dividing DNA results into "African Countries." These Countries are artificial borders that did not exist during slavery. What existed during slavery were TRIBES. Several centuries after slavery, between 1881 and 1914, European colonialists brutally carved up Africa for administrative convenience, without caring to keep one tribe together in one country. So, one tribe can stretch across several African countries. For instance, there are Yorubas in Nigeria, Benin and Togo.
Igbo tribe most Afro-Jamaicans. The DNA is in your hair strands. Take the DNA test, the percentages with a pinch of salt. Record an accurate family tree.

Wow that’s so interesting ! The things we find out with this. lol
@@ThatsPookiie had no idea I even had ancestors from Jamaica. Do have ancestors from the Bahamas.

Thanks for the history ! Interesting to know ! ☺️☺️
Togo is an Ewe word

Benin was once called Dahomey. Dahomey is an Ewe/Fon word.
Yorubas moving to Benin has only been recent. Less than 60 years

I saw this guy the other day, from Montreal he was from check this out:-Algeria,Syria, France n Cameroon lol...quite a mix..😄
I have Scotish also. seems like a lot of Jamaicans background with Scotland
Yes ! It seems to be pretty common in our DNA 🤔 lol
Sweden was an ally of Britain during the Napoleonic War (Napoleon/French War). Their ships were also in Jamaica’s harbors.
Thanks for the information 😊✨
@@ThatsPookiie Sweden also had overseas colonies like St. Barts, and for a brief time Guadeloupe. Some may have traveled to Jamaica.
Celts history has been in Jamaica a long time
Oo do I detect a Scarborough accent ?
Nope, never lived there 😂😂. Maybe a general Toronto Accent ?? Lol
So many Jamaican and African migrants in Canada and USA, i wonder why
@Jaysen Robinson i just wonder or curious, is that Problem?
There has always been a history of Canada and the USA inviting jamaicans to go and work in those countries on work visas.... jamaicans are more reliable and one of the most hard working people on the planet
Said nobody ever
steve boy lol people crazy man
You are an African queen 😄🤩👍
The "Swedish" comes from the Scottish ancestry (vikings)
I was waiting for what countries that came after Nigeria to guess your tribe. You are almost definitely YORUBA.

Igbo tribe most Afro-Jamaicans. The DNA is in your hair strands. Take the DNA test, the percentages with a pinch of salt. Record an accurate family tree.
I'm surprised that Korea didn't show up in your DNA. That doesn't seem correct to me.
Yeah. Seems weird lol
The DNA test is very random, with fallacies.
The Swedish is probably from the British Isles more likely the Viking invasion of Scotland or England.
Yeah I think it’s from my moms side. She has about 6 percent I think. I have 3 lol. Interesting
@@ThatsPookiie Check your ancestrydna results, they have changed again, I now have Sweden and Denmark I didn't have before.
@@honeyjazz4147 Thanks for the update
u are from jamaica or your mother and father why u dont talk patwa
I was Born in Canada
No offense but there’s a reason why they tell full Asians and full Black people not to take an ancestry test
Why
wow, you are almost 100% semitic, israelite, gods chosen people.
Stay away from the Biblical Chosenite Kool aid 😅🤣...
Almost god chosen she not full black 96 percent where is her other 4 percent from god said no mix even if it is a little bit
The Israelites are a melting pot like Joseph's Technicolor Dreamcoat. The Caribbeans, Hispanics and Americans are proving this.
