Unlike other countries, Finland doesn't squander our resources on a fatuous pursuit of great-power status, with aircraft carriers, NATO payments to American arms manufacturers, hundreds of billions wasted on nuclear weapons etc.
Western Europe’s last naturally caused famine ended 150 years ago this winter. In a poor and backward part of the Russian empire called Finland, more than a quarter of a million people – nearly 10% of the population – starved to death.
100 years later Finland is ranked, by assorted international indices, the most stable, the safest and the best-governed country in the world. It was also the third wealthiest, the third least corrupt, the second most socially progressive and the third most socially just.
Finland’s judicial system is the most independent in the world, its police the most trusted, its banks the soundest, its companies the second most ethical, its elections the second freest, and its citizens enjoy the highest levels of personal freedom, choice and wellbeing.

FALSE
The 19th-century Swedish aristocracy held extensive estates even under Russian rule. They accumulated huge fortunes from timber. Even within the peasantry there was a huge disparity between the owners of reasonably sized holdings and “houseless” day labourers.
Free education was introduced in 1866 but attendance was only made compulsory in 1921.
An alliance of industrial capitalists and aristocrats launched a genocidal civil war against Finnish workers (REDS) in 1918 and that the same reactionary elite under the leadership of Mannerheim who had 0% Finnish blood, allied the country with the Nazis during the second world war.
The current Finnish social settlement is an attempt to escape this history. We've never come to terms with our dark past because concessions are made to the peasantry to keep things in order.

Imagine if Russia had a Finn government, today it would be the most powerful nation on earth.

We won the winter war of 1939 against Russian.
During WWII, Finnish pilots saved medieval Tallinn from being bombed flat by the allies (the Russians/Americans/British).
When Estonia declared independence again, in 1991, huge investment and skills help and ideas came from Finland.
Estonia repaid our kindness by flooding our country with criminals and joining NATO that has fucked up what could have been a brilliant military alliance between our countries. Now they can go fuck themselves.

Get a work visa. There's always something in bigger cities if you have no education. When you have worked for some time you can apply the citizenship.

Umm no? It's a game about building a car in Finland, getting drunk and taking saunas.
