FINLAND FACTS
Finlands population was less half a million for most of its written history. Under 100k even.

The written history of Finland starts at 1200, when Swedish crusaders got here. First book written in Finnish was in 1500s. The oldest known thing written in any type of Finnish language was in cyrillic.

The oldest city in Finland is barely 800 years old while most European major cities have thousand year old roots. Helsinki is 500 years old and was Swedish speaking until 1900s.
Finnish became an official language in Finland bit over 100 years ago.

Most of Finland was inhabitated forest for most of its history. This is also a reson why Finns used practice hack and slash agriculture until the 20th century.

Finns still lived in log cabins with no chimneys until the 1950s. Smoke would go through inside, Swedes told us to stop that but we didnt want to and did that until the modern age.

Finland was the last place in Northern Europe to stop being an agricultural country. Until the 90s the country was heavily agricultural. This is seen today by the cultural norm to spend summers in log cabins and Finns own suh cabins as coping mechanism. Finns chop wood there, fish and other stuff there.

>Tsurunen was representing the democrats in the upper house of the Japanese parliament during they years 2002-2013 as its first Western-born member.

A fucking major achievement considering how doubtful the Japanese are against foreigners. Of course Finland is an exception of some sort, the older folk knows and appreciates Mannerheim and Finns.

Apparently a very conservative politician and that's exactly what japskies like.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vowel_harmony#Finnish
>In phonology, vowel harmony is a phonological rule in which the vowels of a given domain – typically a phonological word – must share certain distinctive features (thus "in harmony").

Here's one
Finland is the only place in the world with known monumental buildings built by northern hunter-gatherers during subneolithic, dating to 3000-2000 bc. these stone ruins are called Jätinkirkko (Giant's Church).
The purpose of these sights is not known but it is speculated they were either, fortifications, sacrificial places, seal meat cold storage, reindeer pens, general living quarters, or astronomical observatories.
The last one of these theories is based on the fact that many of the known forty sights have been built astronomically same way based around sunrise and sunset. They bear resemblance to French's Carnac stones which may also have been built based on winter solstices.
