Old Stamps Of North Ingria - Finland ( Europe )

North Ingria ( Pohjois Inkeri  in Finnish and Ingermanland in Swedish ) is an area around St. Petersburg ( Petrograd at that time ) and is also located between Lake Ladoga and the Gulf of Finland .  The majority of the population had strong cultural and linguistic affinity with Finland. After the revolution and the subsequent independence of Finland, the inhabitants rebelled against the revolutionary government of Russia.  On 23 January 1920, the Republic of Ingria was declared.  Now this republic is part of Finland.
