Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Oof, I remember going to people's homes to install phone and Internet links using paper maps because we didn't have maps on our phones back then and the GPS were mostly shit and out of date.
Some of the smaller villages were barely there on the regional maps, aside from maybe a dot near a main road with none of their actual streets.
For these, we'd call or stop by city hall, sometimes they'd have a shitty map or just directions.
I'm getting old...
Wow, actually wondering about your age and the country. Pretty interesting and I am not even that young.
Not OP. Decent smartphones have been around for less than two decades. I used to have a Windows Mobile PDA with GPS and navigation software (I had one called Navigon), those sucked at the time, lots of outdated maps and terrible navigation... "It'll get you there, but don't expect to take the best route!".
Of course it was all offline navigation, 'cause back then we paid internet by the minute!
