The Sami are a people who speak one of the varieties of the Sami language and inhabit Lapland and adjacent areas of northern Norway, Sweden, and Finland, as well as the Kola Peninsula of Russia.
Traditional Sami occupations are hunting, fishing, farming, and reindeer herding, though only a minority of today's Sami make a living from these activities alone, and virtually none live in a natural economy nor have a nomadic lifestyle.
The Sami are the Indigenous people of northern Scandinavia and the Kola Peninsula, with deep roots across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. In Norway, Sami traditions remain a living part of daily life from the coast of Troms and Finnmark to the mountains of Trøndelag and the forests near Røros.
While the Sami, or Lapps (as they were formerly called), are commonly thought of as the inhabitants of Lapland, they have never had a country of their own. They are the original inhabitants of northern Scandinavia and most of Finland.
