Alex,
the similarity to the Danish countryside might well be close. I have never been in Estonia but know that thatching reeds are cut there and imported to Denmark. We also got our flag from Estonia.
The Danish king, Valdemar Sejr led a campaign in Estonia in 1219, and in a battle, when he was in trouble, the flag fell from the sky and the danish won - at least the flag, "Dannebrog".
