Finland acctually didn't want to participate in the world war but Russia attacked Finland because they needed the land for their own support so that they could have attacked some other countries in Europe. They thought it would take about a week to take over the whole Finland but they didnt accomplish at their mission.

As far as I know it was, along with the rest of Scandanavia, Neutral.
Finland fought the Soviet Union in the 'Winter War', which started in 1939 and ended when the Moscow Peace Treaty was signed in 1940. Finland ceded Karelia to the Soviets. In World War Two, Finland fought against Russia but was an unofficial member of the Axis Powers. The Soviets conquered Finland on their way to Germany.
The Finnish civil war of 1918 and the second world war.
Finland did not exist as an independent nation until December 6, 1917, when it declared its independence from Russia, and a Civil War immediately began over that issue. Finland owed no WWI war debt.
No, Finland is not neutral. Politically, it is a member of EU since Jan 1st 1995. It is not a full member of Nato, but is committed to peace partnership with Nato.
Why not? I assume you mean "Why does Finland exist?," or, "How did Finland form?" Finland was formed by the Treaty of Versailes, which ended World War One. EDIT: No, Finland wasn't formed by the Treaty of Versailles. Finland is an older nation which has been under the Swedish empire and later the Russian empire. Finland became independent from Russia (Finland had autonomy) in 1917-1918 (Yes, after WWI) through Finland's own effort. And without bloodshed. :)
No, but the First World War is the reason why Finland seceded from Russia.
In the World War II Romania was allied with Germany, Hungary, Finland, etc. against Soviet Union invaders.
No, but Finland was unusual in that it was the only real democracy to enter the war on the side of the Germans.

95,000 Finland Soldiers died during World War 2.
