No, but it's not their fault. They were being raped and buckbroken for like 500 years and like all colonies they're absolutely cultureless.

>Baltic states taint their keeping of traditional folk culture with semi-rehabilitated neo-Nazism, Liberalism, and rabid Atlanticism
Benjamin Rivera
such is the fate of geopolitically unstable countries to rely on reactionary powers for their existence. Marx (PBUH) was right

>What separates them from other countries, besides language?
they're very isolated, so they're some of the most archaic cultures in Europe

Sure.

True, we've been completely buck-broken, and the years of communism were the worst in that regard. If we had retained independence, Estonia could have been like a small Finland and could have developed its culture a bit more

>Scholars, such as Karl Kello,[9] maintain that the event figured prominently in regional mythology. It was, and still is, considered a sacred lake. There is archaeological evidence[clarification needed] that it may well have been a place of ritual sacrifice. At some point during the early Iron Age, the lake was surrounded by a stone wall 470 m (1,540 ft) long, with a median width of about 2.5 m (8.2 ft) and an average height of 2.0 m (6.6 ft).
>Finnish mythology has stories that may originate with the formation of Kaali. One of them is in runes 47, 48 and 49 of the Kalevala epic: Louhi, the evil wizard, steals the Sun and fire from people, causing total darkness. Ukko, the god of the sky, orders a new Sun to be made from a spark. The virgin of the air starts to make a new Sun, but the spark drops from the sky and hits the ground. This spark goes to an "Aluen" or "Kalevan"[10] lake and causes its water to rise. Finnish heroes see the ball of fire falling somewhere "behind the Neva river" (the direction of Estonia from Karelia). The heroes head in that direction to seek fire, and they finally gather flames from a forest fire.
>According to a theory first proposed by Lennart Meri, it is possible that Saaremaa was the legendary Thule island, first mentioned by ancient Greek geographer Pytheas, whereas the name "Thule" could have been connected to the Finnic word tule ("(of) fire") and the folklore of Estonia, which depicts the birth of the crater lake in Kaali. Kaali was considered the place where "The sun went to rest."[10]

Is it boring or not? Is it worth visiting? Each of their capitals have beautiful old towns.
