Talk:Savonia (historical province)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm confused. I don't see Savonia on the map. -- Zoe

See "Savolaks" in the middle of the map. --mav
It would be nice if that were pointed out in the article. -- Zoe
Done. --mav
In Swedish, which also was the language of government, the name is Savolaks (sometimes spelled Savolax) and this is what is seen on the map.

The name of the entry, Savonia, is the Latin version of the name, which is also used for English. / Mic
