About Estonia
This Estonia guide uses seven dated records from the European Union, the European Central Bank, UNESCO, and Study in Estonia. The six themes practice source-aware English about a smoke-sauna record, Tallinn Old Town, Kihnu cultural space, Estonian, the euro changeover, and Seto Leelo. Each lesson keeps a source, claim, and date together.
