Also known as Lappmarken

250px|thumb|Lappmarken (light yellow) on the map of Västerbotten (light and dark yellow), circa 1796 Lappmarken, or Lapland (), was the northern part of the old Kingdom of Sweden inhabited by the Sami people. In addition to the present-day Swedish Lapland, it also covered Västerbotten, Jämtland and Härjedalen, as well as the Finnish Lapland. As a name, it is related to Finnmark, an old Norwegian name for the Sami area. Finn and Lapp are mutually exchangeable old names for the Sami people, but both are now considered offensive.
