Aili Keskitalo Nyvalgt 2013
Aili is a Finland, Finnish, Sápmi, Sami and Estonian female given name, with the pronunciation [aɪliː]. It is the Finnish variation of the name Helga, via the Sami Áile, deriving ultimately from ''heilagr'', meaning "holy", or "blessed". Ailikki is a diminutive. Aili has also been used as an anglicised spelling of Eilidh, in this case with the pronunciation [eɪli]. Eilidh is a diminutive for Eilionoir, the Scottish version of Eleanor. The meaning of Eleanor is disputed, but the theory most supported by evidence is that it is derived from the Old Germanic name Adenorde, via the Provençal Alienor. Aili can also be considered a diminutive for various names, such as Aileen. Some notable bearers of the name Aili: * Aili Alliksoo (born 1959), Estonian sprinter and hurdler * Aili Jõgi (born 1931), Estonian patriot * Aili Keskitalo (born 1968), Norwegian-Sami politician, president of the Sami Parliament of Norway * Aili Siiskonen (1907–1983), Finnish journalist, civil servant ...

Sámi Parliament Of Russia
The Sámi ( ; also spelled Sami or Saami) are a Finno-Ugric-speaking people inhabiting the region of Sápmi (formerly known as Lapland), which today encompasses large northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and of the Murmansk Oblast, Russia, most of the Kola Peninsula in particular. The Sámi have historically been known in English as Lapps or Laplanders, but these terms are regarded as offensive by the Sámi, who prefer the area's name in their own languages, e.g. Northern Sámi . Their traditional languages are the Sámi languages, which are classified as a branch of the Uralic language family. Traditionally, the Sámi have pursued a variety of livelihoods, including coastal fishing, fur trapping, and sheep herding.

Sámi Politics
Sámi politics refers to politics that concern the Sámi ethnic group in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. In a more narrow sense, it has come to indicate the government of Sámi affairs by Sámi political institutions. This article deals with Sámi political structures, with an emphasis on the contemporary institutions. Pre-parliamentarian Sámi politics Nomadic times Originally, the Sámi were semi-nomadic - moving between fixed settlements as the seasons passed. Several groups would often join up in the winter, making winter settlements (''dálvvadis'' - n. sam) larger and more diverse than the spring-, summer- and autumn-settlements (the ''báiki'' - n.sam). In several ''dálvvadis'', such as Jåhkamåhkke, large winter markets were established and towns grew up. The "Finnekonger" Norse sources from the 12th century and onwards, such as Heimskringla and Volundarkvida, talk about ''finnekonger'' ("Sámi kings"), which in contemporary history writing are interpreted as pa ...
