Suomi = Marsh land

Pretty much 90% of Finland looks like this.

ei vittu :DDDD

Beautiful.

...

So?

No hippos, crocs or piranhas, would be nice to go in with a boat

it wobbles under your feet and swallows you up and then they dig you up 20,000 years later and put you in a museum
t. bog p

There's a reason why Mongolian and Russian empires never really cared about this piece of land.

Can you go on a boat on it?

It'd be impractical.

As far as I know the scientists who study marshes use logging tracks, special kind of boots and small canoes.

I know, I live near a peatbog land.

A good source of berries.

do finns use turf as fuel?

Yeah a bit, but it's very controversial.

Special boat with a giant propeller or a special mud-engine.

many mosquitos there...

ye have plenty of lumber though so i doubt you use as much as ireland
pretty much every irish fireplace is heated with turf, although the government tries to regulate it
our bogs are mostly man made, from when the first farmers felled forests for farmland, and thanks to the acidity of the soil, became bogs.

But lot's of these awesome berries!

What's the Russia words for them?

Moroshka on your picture

What about a swamp buggy?

Looks much like the primeval Slavic homeland of Pripyat. Are Finns really just an alternate (Turanic-Eskimo) development of the Slavs?

kys

After the 2nd World War they drained lots of marshes for forests and farm land.

But since the late 60's they realized how shitty it was for the enviroment and since it has been really difficult to exctract turf or anything else from our marshes.

For a good reason though, pic related is extremely endangered bird that only live in northern swamps.

it goes the other way

I watched a movie Midnight Special and it had a scene in a swampy forest in Southern USA which looked exactly like Finnish wilderness.

USA is a huge slut with everything.

Doubtful. Southern US forests are completely different my boreal friend.

Yeah I know. That's why I was so surprised.

I'll try to find a screenshot of that scene.

Best I can find. The road scene before this looked even more similar.

Could've easily been shot at an edge of Finnish swamp.

Looks like a lot of areas here in Florida.

I lived in the Panhandle near bama, where are you at?

I desire to know more about Finland!

We have large areas like that here in South east Texas.

That's just a pine plantation though. Which I guess that's all Finland is at this point. That picture could be anywhere.

We have different kind of trees and instead of alligators and snakes we have bears and wolves.

But swamp is a swamp.

I bet our mosquitos could beat up your mosquitos

Probably yeah. Ours are annoying but completely harmless.
