Lapland is not exactly a country, although e.g. the Sámi people in Finnish Lapland do have their own flag as well as own national day. Lapland is spread between Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia, and each of the areas do have their own forms of Sámi language i.e. it is not easy to understand other Sámi languages although there are some words that are common in all of the Sámi languages. Also, Sámi languages are not readily taught in e.g. Finnish schools, so a mainstream Finn such as myself do not understand any of the Sámi languages readily.
