You might find these a bit odd:

- We take our shoes of while entering classrooms, some offices ect...

- In some countries their busses stop anyways, but in Finland you need to wave for the driver to stop

- Prices here are not debateable.

- You are allowed to use the phone on the bus, but you may not YELL TO IT!

- While you are in a lift, you might not want to speak. I don't really understand it myself but some people shush you if you tend to speak...

- We rarely call your teachers/bosses by their last name. We tend to use the first one.

- When a Finn sees a friend (a good old friend or boss ect... wich they have not seen in some time) they shake hands and make eyecontact. Usually just say 'Moi' (=Hello).

- Smoking is allowed, but only in the accepted areas.

- We usually don't smoke inside our homes. Usually means usually, so there are some who smoke.

- And in sauna it's considered polite to ask before throwing more water on to the hot rocks. Some might not ask and you are allowed to leave at any point you like.

And one more: We don't complain about some mistakes. We should but we don't.

"Hyvää päivänjatkoa."
This can only be used if you are referring to the current day though.

If you want to say "Have a good day tomorrow." you would say "Vietä hyvä päivä huomenna." This doesn't sound very natural though. Finnish doesn't really have an idiom for this.

The first capital of Finland was Turku, then Helsinki.

Because their climates are humid Continental and subarctic , and the physical feature is 656 Ft (200 meters) high in elevation.

Lapland covers an area that spreads through Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia

Yes and no. As part of the British Commonwealth, Australia fought against Germany and Italy. Germany and Finland essentially aligned themselves to oppose a common foe-the Soviet Union. During the early stages of WWII, Britain actually gave aid to Finland in defense of attacks by the Soviet Union on Finnish territories. When Finland aligned with Germany, Britain declared war on Finland. Thus, the two become enemies by default. However, they never actually had combat with each other.

The Customer Service Office of the Bank of Finland will convert all markka banknotes printed after the Second World War into euro until 29 February 2012. Coins included in the last markka coin series will also be accepted for conversion until 29 February 2012. However, the deadline for the redemption of silver coloured 1 markka coins and 5 markka coins with the icebreaker motif was 31 December 2007. Coins older than these will not be accepted for conversion.

Finland has been tied with Norway over being the second least corrupted country in the world, first is Iceland. This is both politically and with crime rates. The greatest problem there probably is in Finland is Alcoholism and the violence or other crimes connected with it, Finland also has the second highest suicide rate in the world (Males) and fourth most (Females) according to OECD 2002.

Finland does not have a king or queen. It has a president. Currently (February 2014) that is President Sauli Niinistö.

For example Nokia, M-real, Neste Oil, Patria, Wärtsilä, UPM-Kymmene, F-Secure.

It all depends on where you are in the state. But for the most part they are pretty similar.

At this time (September 23, 2012) Finnish citizens are visa free to Turkey. Please check this link to see visa requirements for Finnish citizens.

It depends. You know, the Finnish kids have to go to school for nine years (primary school = grades 1-6, middle school = grades 7-9) and after they have finished their ninth class they can decide if they want to continue studying. Then they can go to high school for 2,5 or more years, or they can go to technical school.

And if they want to go to university, it starts after they have finished high school. But not so many Finnish youngsters want or can go to university.

Never been a communist country, but yes Finland is still a social democrat country.

Since February 28, 2002, the markka is no longer the legal tender currency in Finland. The country adopted the euro in January of 2002. So using the euro as the official currency of Finland, one euro is the equivalent to 1.36 US dollars (as of March 25, 2009). If the markka was still the official currency of Finland, XE reports that a single US dollar would be worth about 4.385 markka (as of March 25, 2009).

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.
