What is your (known) ethnic background?
Okay, this is getting historically strange. How come Uralic keeps on showing up in my DNA results. The farthest east my recorded ancestors ever lived was in West Prussia and 4% of my DNA came from West Prussia.

We received the same amount of Finnish ancestry even though neither of us have known Finnish or Far north east european ancestors. Coincidentally enough we also both have ancestry from western Prussia. I dont think this test is very accurate, but it's interesting to note.
With 23andme I get around 96% Ashkenazi and the rest unknown, strangely though with FTDNA I get 88% Ashkenazi and 11% South Central European.
West Eurasian 100%

Mediterranean Islander 82%
Finnish 8.7%
Northwest European 5.3%
Southwestern European 3.7%
WOW your results are so legit for you Maleth it's almost funny! Scoring through the roof in the Mediterranean islander category is totally appropriate for a Maltese person! I guess its your northern ancestry that brought it down.
