Vepse
- Vepse herria Ladoga,
Onego eta Belozero lakuen artean bizi da. Garai
sobietarreko errusifikazioa eta zapalkuntza latza izan da
(1937-1987) baina orain beren identitate etnikoa eta
kultura berreraiki nahian dabiltza. 1989an 12.142 Vepse
zeuden (hiztunak: %52). Badute gogoa Vepseen eskualde
guztiak barruti autonomo batean biltzeko, baina Errusiako
Estatuaren eta agintari lokalen oztopoak daude tartean.
Karelian bederen 1994tik "herri
komunitate nazional" bat daukate, Xeltozero izeneko
tokian: 14 herrixkatan 3,773 lagun bizi dira, eta
horietarik 1.588 (%41.8) Vepseak dira.

Vepsian
- Vepsians are the the
easternmost Baltic-Finnic people. Their homeland lies
between the lakes Ladoga, Onego and Belozero. After half
a century (about 1937-1987) of Russification and social
oppression, the Vepsians are rebuilding their ethnic
identity and cultural institutions. In 1989 there were
12,142 Vepsians (speakers: 52%). Nowadays there is
spreading a new idea to unify ail the Vepsian areas into
an autonomous district (there is resistance by Russian
state and local authorities). In Karelia since January 1994, there
exists a "national village community" at Sheltozero: in
14 villages and hamlets of that community there live
3,773 inhabitants of whom 1,588 (41.8%) are
Vepsians.
