Estonian phenomenon
Estonia is a small country in northern Europe that feels and would like to be nordic, but actually belongs to the baltic countries south of the baltic sea. Due to its size and since just about 1.4 million people live there (for reference: New York has 8.4 million inhabitants) , somthing that has been dubbed the "estonian phenomenon" can be witnessed here. The term describes that everyone practically knows everyone or at least someone who knows them. This makes gossip equally more interesting and more dangerous, since the person you are gossiping about will almost certainly hear about it. Sometimes Estonia feels like a big family gathering of a country where even someone who seems to be a random stranger has most likely some kind of relation to you.
"Oh hey, I know the girl who just delivered our food... that was an awkward interaction"
"How do you know her?"
"Its just a case of estonian phenomenon, my classmate used to work at her families store and she used to play soccer with my second cousin. Did you know that she broke up with her Boyfriend?"

Estonians are an extremely happy group of people with lineage stemming from the small European nation Estonia. Predominantly blonde haired, blue eyed beauties. You can distinguish "kodu Eestlased" native Estonians from non-Estonian born Estonians by their lanky, disproportionate limbs (ex. legs and arms looking like the appendages of a daddy long leg spider). Real Estonians drink vodka for the most part until they are good and jolly, or black out and engage in activity with the opposite sex that is never really that awkward in the morning (as is often with Americans). With an extremely high tolerance for alcohol, what better way to end a celebratory evening (celebratory evening= anytime 2 or more Estonians are together and drinking) than crossing right arm over left and holding hands in a circle known as Soprus Ring, humming notes and saying prayers in a foreign tongue (Estonian) startling innocent non-Estonian onlookers who imagine they are witnessing cult activity.
