latvians : ウィキペディア英語版
latvians

Latvians ((ラトビア語:latvieši); ) are a Baltic ethnic group, native to what is modern-day Latvia and the immediate geographical region. They are also known as Letts,〔("Lett" at Oxford Dictionaries )〕〔("Lett" at Merriam-Webster Online )〕 although this term is obsolescent. The Latvian people share a common Latvian language.
==History==
A Finnic-speaking tribe known as the Livs settled among the Latvians and modulated the name to "Latvis," meaning "forest-clearers," which is how medieval German, Teutonic settlers also referred to these peoples. The Germanic settlers referred to the natives as "Letts" and the nation to "Lettland", naming their colony Livonia or Livland.
The Latin form, ''Livonia'', gradually referred to the whole territory of the modern-day Latvia as well as southern Estonia, which had fallen under minimal Germanic influence. Latvians and Lithuanians are the only surviving members of the Baltic branch of the Indo-European family.
