Finno-Ugric countries

Finno-Ugric countries is a term used for the three independent nation states with a Finno-Ugric national majority:[1] Finland and Estonia which are Finnic, and Hungary which is Magyar.

The Finno-Ugric countries work together in funding Finno-Ugric research and protecting the minority rights of other Finno-Ugric nations without their own sovereign states.[2] The three countries are also represented as Finno-Ugric countries in the Finno-Ugric Congress [3][4]
