Talk:Lapland Province
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The article name is unfortunately NOT unambiguous, since Lapland, a province in Sweden, may also be called Lapland Province (the article is named "Swedish Lapland") and is in fact larger than Finnish Lapland (which redirects here).
This article should better be renamed Lapland Province, Finland.
The article name may also be comfused with the historical province of Lapland in Finland (see Laponia). The corresponding area in Sweden is still regarded as a province, and it is well-defined and well-known, albeit administratively subdivided since 1810 (Norrbotten County and Västerbotten County).
