Should'nt Juice Leskinen be added to the list of famous people? Finns from that area to comment? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.143.48.129 (talk) 12:59, 27 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

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. Among the Finnish speaking population the name was Savo and these two names can befound on top of the table and at the begining of the entry. The name of the entry, Savonia, is the Latin version of the name, which is also used for English. / Mic
