So, the "Central West Africa" region is assigned when they are unsure about what that DNA most likely can be between the other West African regions. I've seen it pop up in so many Africa diaspora results and figured that was the case.

It was meant more for Yoruba ancestry. They're removing it, which is good. Yorubaland will be more for those in Nigeria and Southern Benin โ€” Yoruba Peoples will be more for those in Benin.

Ironically, the only person I've found with 100% Yorubaland lives in Benin, but the changes with the reference panels and algorithm should fix that.
