I'm Blacker than I Thought!

So, my dad got his DNA tested, and it turns out he's part black! Hahaha

27 of the 50 nationalities were shared between my dad and me, which makes sense since I would have gotten about half of my genes from my dad, and half from my mom (i.e. about 25 from each, but a lot of them would also probably overlap). I don't seem to have inherited any of the black genes, but there are definitely some blacks in my ancestry.

Here is a color-coded breakdown of the results. The 27 nationalities that I inherited from dad are in bold and underlined.
