It's a lot better than most such maps, but still, there's way too many languages missing in my opinion :)

I take little bit of issue having south part of Finland having swedish there.

Edit: ok, the projection is bit funky here, that is not southern Finland (Uusimaa), but south west Finland (Varsinais-Suomi) which is conquered by Swedish Finns

Conquered? I would personally say inhabited.

I did say "a little bit of a point".

That's the problem with giving it a fair shake, I suppose. You end up with nitpicking the remainder instead. It's a natural impulse.
