Chapters: Sápmi. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 51. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt:Sápmi is the name of the cultural region traditionally inhabited by the Sámi people. Sápmi is located in Northern Europe and includes the northern parts of Fennoscandia. The region stretches over four countries: Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. Sápmi is the name in North Sámi, while the Julev Sámi name is Sábme and the South Sámi name is Saemie.

The region has its own football team, the Sámi Spábbáiekanlihttu, that plays in the NF-Board, won the 2006 Viva World Cup and hosted the 2008 event. Sápmi (and corresponding terms in other Sámi languages) refers to both the Sámi land and the Sámi people. In fact, the word "Sámi" is only the accusative-genitive form of the noun "Sápmi"--making the nation's name (Sámi olbmot) simply mean "people of Sápmi." The source of the word is speculated to be related to the Baltic word *m that simply means "land". In history of texts and the Swedish names "Lappmarken" or may occur, and also the Norwegian name "Finnmark" or "Finnmo...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=27861 ... Read more
