   Lappland is a landscape in Sweden and Finland, and a town in Norway. The sami/same (two syllables) live in Norway Sweden Finland and Russia, lapp isn’t used much anymore as the name for the people. That said, there are a lot of place names with lapp in them. Around here there is Lappudden (same point) but there hasn’t been a reindeer drive through there since 1928.
