Makes me want to go there, actually. And I love that they put a cement factory on there 😂 like "Estonia is very proud of its castles, its witches - and its cement. Our cement rocks. For real. Check it out, boys and girls"

They sure do love their rocks

Absolutely.

In Estonian (mainly East Estonian) legends, Kalevipoeg carries stones or throws them at enemies

Kalevipoeg becomes king after defeating his brothers in a stone hurling competition

Taara, in consultation with the other gods, reanimates Kalevipoeg, places his legless body on a white steed, and sends him down to the gates of hell where he is ordered to strike the rock with his fist, thus entrapping hell in the rock

Love that country when I visited. Wouldn’t mind living there either: full EU member, part of NATO, uses the Euro, part of the Schengen zone….

Canoe. So nice it’s on there twice.
