Basically the title says it, make the Kvens more prominent in Europe than being obscure. This is somewhat needed help because Im putting this in my planned TL

Are you talking about that area around Bothnia?
Basically you'll need to fragment mediaeval Sweden first, then unify the northern Finns under a King of Kvenland

Not going o happenthe northern Bothnian Bay is lousy for agriculture, have relative limited fishing oppotunity and the raw materials it do have are either demand a more advanced techology to be extracted in big quantities or can be gotten cheaper elsewhere. In fact the reason the area was settled in the 17-18th century by the Swedes, was because a growing need for wood tar, but in the middle ages, wood tar was less needed (fewer and smaller ships) and there was plenty of other sources.
