The map can be rotate and zoom in, considering all boundaries. When clicked, a link to the selected people appears, which takes you to a page with related sites and data sources.

This globe contains information from all over the world, including detailed information about North America, South America, Australia, North Europe and some parts of Asia. Only a few Finno-Ugric peoples in the north are noted on the territory of Russia, including Karelians, Veps, Nenets, Ingrians, Khanty, Selkups, Mansi and Komi.
