Historically Scandinavians only fairly recently stopped slaughtering their native Sami hunter-gatherers that used to live in central regions. Most that are left today are northern nomadic herders.
- rags2riches 3y agoIn which period did the slaughtering take place? Mistreatment of Sami since the middle ages happened in many ways, like taxation, forced labour, relocations, forced cultural assimilation, discrimination. Most Sami living in Scandinavia today are culturally assimilated urban dwellers. A small minority of Scandinavian Sami work with reindeer husbandry. It's a modern, mechanized trade. The people involved can hardly be described as nomadic. It's more like moving with seasonal work. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reindeer_herding https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reindeer_herding https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A1mi_peoples https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A1mi_peoples
