Hello. This is maybe for someone strange question, maybe someone don't want to answer on this question, so I'll understand. Maybe You have heard about sámi people (or Laponic people). In some countries, where You come from leaves those people in area named Sápmi (or Lapland). So, I have a question. What are relationships between Sámi and Swedes, Norwegians, Finns and Russians? Thank You.
Don't ask me why I revive this but never found it before. Sami language is in fact similar to finish, at least somewhat close. As other typical indiginis people groups they have been discriminated back then, at least in norway. It has gotten better though today, and by now they also have their own tv channels here.
Slovak to macedonian? I'd say czech, they relate more.

I'd like to wrote, that those languages (Finnish and Saami) are not close, like Slovak and Czech. I've heard about It, but I am not sure. Maybe It'll be good to ask somebody, who can speak Finnish.
Well, but Norwegians is North Germanic nation, not Finnic (or Finnougric). For example, Hungarian and Finnish are not similar, but are sometimes sorted to Finnougric language branch.
The geografical place has nothing to do with that. Did you know that persian, for example, is a germanic language/in the same language family as english and german? And again, norwegians must know well about Sami people, don't you think? Everyone said finish and Sami langs are in the same language group at least from what I heard. Of course you don't need to like, understand the other. But look at it as, idk, danish and norwegian, dutch and german, idk.
