Finnish

Sorry guys but I didn't post for a long time.

Christmas is near and I want to tell you about the language of a cold country. Tomorrow I might post about a hotter place.

Which is very impressive for a language which has less than a million speakers.   The fate of the language was influenced by the increasing power of the English state in Ireland. Elizabethan officials viewed the use of Irish unfavourably, as being a threat to all things English in Ireland. Its decline began under English rule in the 17th century.
