So I found out I'm 12.5% Kraut!

So are you 87.5% sour? 😛

I supposedly have a Native American in my ancestry, but I don't even know how to begin to figure out what her tribe was.
 
3/4 of my grandparents were 100% German. The other 1/4 was all kinds of stuff. Welcome to the club!

I'm mostly not German, but the German ancestry I do have is all patrilinear so I have an obviously German last name.
 
I'm also 12.5% German, even though I carry a German last name.

The rest is Irish. How pure of Irish I'm not sure. I've heard there may be more Scottish than we thought. Should totally get one of those DNA tests. Even my German side may actually have more Norwegian than German in it.
 
I recently sent in a mouth swab to 23andme.com and these were my results:

In terms of family tree, my understanding based on my parents' knowledge of their respective sides of the family, is that I'm almost entirely Irish with a little bit of German possibly on my mother's side.

If you listed European countries in order of "stupid politics", it'd be a long time before you got to Germany.

That is, modern politics. And historically, if you go back 125 years or so, Bismarck was one of the greatest political statesmen in European history. Gotta say there are a couple of decades in the early-mid 20th century that bring their average down though.
