Dear Phillipa
I feel it nice that u are interested in my small country, i like that. Now i have some information for you:
My roots are in Ostrobothnia, the eastern cost of the Gulf of Bothnia. My ancestors come from a village called Yliharma, and there is a nice little clip to be seen. (perhaps you recognize the melody.....) :)

it is sung in the local dialect by a humourous band...
many immigrants therefrom live nowadays in the states around the Great Lakes states both in the USA and Canada...
