In the last podcast we got around talking about the Native Americans and I just figured Id share the whole Findian thingy, will also look in to finding that book from Pekka Hämäläinen which SenisterDenister talked about.

Findians
Good stuff. On a related yet unrelated note it's kind of funny that we have our own Native Americans, the Sami, whose shit we just took because, well, why not?
. . . the Finnish government has maintained its legally enforced premise that the Sámi must prove their land ownership, an idea incompatible with and antithetical to the traditional reindeer-herding Sámi way of life. This has effectively allowed the Finnish government to take without compensation, motivated by economic gain, land occupied by the Sámi for centuries.
