Mine and my brother's is quite different also. I've got a lot of Middle East, East Africa(which I didn't show before) and, of course, lot's of Europe (East, Southern) and my brother shows the British Isles which I show none and he didn't show that before at all! I don't show a lot of Portugal but lots of Spain/France. I'm half Portuguese and half Italian. My brother is a full sibling! We had more in common with the old 'origins' than now! Crazy.
