The Disappearing People Of The Baltic Sea. Who Are They?

The Izhorians, Ingris, Inkeri or Izhors are a small Finno-Ugric people, the original indigenous population of the section of Baltic coast between Narva in Estonia and St. Petersburg. Only a few hundred people now remain of this once powerful tribe, the harsh disposition of which the Pope wrote in a papal bull in the 12th century, when several Latin missionaries who tried to convert these pagans to their faith were brutally murdered.

Thanks, well done. A beautiful people much like my Latvian culture with pagan origins, now Lutheran. Pray for peace.

[@mktashkent]

The biggest Lutheran temple in Europe, if I am not mistaken.

The voice-over is annoying. Why no subtitles so you could actually hear the language?!

[@NoSugarThanks]

Strongly agree with this comment, very annoying.Re-edit please with subtitles when they are speaking

[@jennifer1329]

Exactly what I came to say!

[@rkozakand]

Every time they speak Izhorian, you talk over it! WTF?! Why? You let that woman speaking Russian be heard! Why are you censoring this language?!

[@LeeNelson71]

Why are you covering up their language? It seems like a huge disservice to them.

[@hockeybros4051]

The Finnish people are with you we have suffered so much by the Russians talking our land.

[@hockeybros4051]

can you please take the voice over out and put subtitles. we want to hear the language.

[@hansvandermeulen5515]

Sami, Setos, Izhorians...

[@dankadesign7462]

Thank you very interesting.they talk simular with Russian language and they are of pagans believe?

[@henrikmanitski1061]

Apart from some loanwords due to the nearness of Russians it has some loanwords, but it is not at all similar to Russian language. It is very sad that there are very few native speakers left and even those speak it with a Russian accent, so it is rare to hear the authentic sound of the language. Despite living closer to Estonia than Finland, the Izhorian language is closer to Finnish.

[@dankadesign7462]

@@henrikmanitski1061 thank you very much.Any video or radio recording of authentic language made in the past?What about religion?Are they been under Soviet or Finish rule ?

[@margustoo]

I tried to watch it but voiceover truly ruined this video for me. I want to hear Izhorian and not awful English dub.

This channel is Russian propaganda disguised as science. All of sudden, in less than a month dozens of ethnographic videos came out, mostly regarding Finno-ugric peoples, in most part conquered by Russia - even videos about Sakhalina. Gaudy edition, artificial voiceover - usual Russian stuff, quoting conquerors such as Finns, Estonians, and Swedes of Finno-ugric peoples, very critical of Catholics and Lutherans, but with no mention to the extremely damaging effect Russia had on these peoples. Another video talks about a Russian super airplane that would "change the world" whilst Russia barely can build anything that requires precision electronics.
