White people are Asian
I found this question and answer on Ancestry By DNA’s website interesting:
I thought I was purely of Scandinavian origin, but my results show minor East Asian admixture. How is this result possible?
In our testing we’ve observed a number of samples from Scandinavia and Eastern Europe that exhibit some East Asian admixture. This is probably due to past migrations and is possibly telling us something about the interaction of various groups in those regions. In addition, cultures from these areas traveled to region of Asia and it does not seem unreasonable that children may have been produced from some of these travels introducing new genetic markers into the Scandinavian population.
Ancestry by DNA is a strange little company which will tell you, based on your DNA, what your “race” actually is. Or rather, what geography your people are from.
