Wrong[edit]

The map is wrong and should be edited. Åland for example, among other Finnish municipalities should be changed to entirely or partly Germanic since Swedish is a sole, majority or minority language in some areas of the Finnih coastal municipalities, see List of municipalities of Finland in which Finnish is not the sole official language. The Sami language, the Finnish varieties Kven and Meänkieli, as well as Standard Finnish, also hold official minority language status in parts of Northern Sweden and Norway. There are also many Slavic people (Russians, Poles etc) who actually make up the majority people group in some parts of the Baltic states. I don’t excpect it all to be fixed, but at least Åland, which is like 99% Swedish speaking.Jonteemil (talk) 01:32, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
