[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We flew to Helsinki via Munich, stayed 2 nights, then flew to Ivalo and rented a car. It’s pretty easy to get around. 4-5 nights in Lapland is enough. It’s amazing. [/quote] Did you have any qualms about going there when the indigenous people prefer the region be called "Sápmi" and that they have a history of being horrifically marginalized and their land stolen. They are one of Europe's last indigenous peoples. From the mid-1800s until about late 1960s, they were considered an alien people, often characterized as uncivilized, and a policy towards the Sami marked by racist attitudes and notions of racial hierarchy was pursued.
