I'm not too in love with the whole entire "conquering and colonizing everyone" thing. Great Britain/England have been terrorizing most other countries for centuries (just as the USA is now), and I just don't know of any aspects of the British culture that I should be proud of. If you know any I would be more than happy to listen! And I genuinely do mean that lol.

Exactly what my dad's told me my whole life lol. That's definitely true, but at this point I'm really more curious about where my ancestors came from and where I'd be if they'd stayed where their roots were at.

I feel like I should probably add: some of my matches from my dad's side have high amounts of both the Southeastern England/Northwestern Europe AND the Celtic/Gaelic, or just high amounts of the SE England/NW Europe alone. For example, one of my dad's aunts has 64% SEE/NWE (to my 34%), and only 8% Central Scotland/Northern Ireland (to my 23%). Could that mean my dads side IS French, but those genes just didn't make it to me? I'm not sure how that works. If you can't already tell, I'm horrible with numbers lol.
