Finland

Practically you can go to any city you like and it'll be a place for tourists. Lakes have spread through the country. So almost all of the cities have 'em. During summers the lower parts of Finland are usually quite warm (20-30 degrees celsius)

But lets start from my hometown: Naantali.

The only place in the world where you will find Moominworld. That's a major thing here.

Then there's the VERY old church. The presidents summer castle is in Naantali. The town is at the sealevel so you can go swimming and so forth. The Spa has a big ship at it's side for everyone to use. Not to driving, they have removed the engines, if I remember correctly. Part of the city is very old - no modern style there.

Moving on:

Turku is one place with the river going through it and movie theaters. Then there is the big church (somewhat beautiful). It was the capital city, but then half of it burned... The river stopped the fire from destroying all of the houses.

Tampere has a a themepark (särkänniemi) with it's big needle on top. It's a restaurant...

Helsinki is the capital city now. It has shopping malls and stuff.

Rovaniemi, also known as the Santa's hometown. Snow fills the land during the winter.

Santa Claus Village is located near the center of Finland. The village also has hotels where tourists or visitors can stay at in comfort. Families are also welcome there.

Finland was on Finland's side. The Soviets invaded Finland in 1939. Finland allied with Germany for a while to fight the Soviets. The United Kingdom wanted to send help but could not get help through Nazi Norway and neutral Sweden. Finland did not persecute Jews and they refused to bomb Lenningrad.

No. The two countries were allies from 1941-44. Finland allied itself with Germany because Finland was trying to get back areas lost after the winter war. The continuation war was the second finnish war with the Soviet Union.First one was winter war 1939-1940

One of the most famous of animals in Finland is Ransu, the puppet dog in the Finnish children's program "Pikku Kakkonen".

Bears are widely respected in Finland because the old religions taught that they were sons of Tapio, the forest god.

Also: cuckoos, eagles, scaups, swallows, and sparrows.

Finland uses the Euro as currency. It used to use the Finnish Mark, but has changed since it joined the European Union. (The Euro is the official currency of the European Union)

The medal round of the ice hockey competition at the 1980 Winter Games was not a single elimination round. The composite record against each of the other 3 teams in the medal round was used to determine the medal winners. Because Finland's record in the medal round was 0-2-1 for 1 point, they did not win a medal.

Had Finland defeated the United States in the final game of the tournament, the Soviet Union would have won gold, with a record of 2-1-0 for 4 points, and the United States and Finland would have tied for the silver with a record of 1-1-1 for 3 points.

Yes, Finland actually is between two Gulfs. Gulf of Bothnia and Gulf of Finland.

It is one of Europe's northernmost countries, and also one of Europe's largest producers of wood and timber.

Finland is an independent European Country.

Yes. It's taught in our schools from third grade. It continues as far as you like to study it.

what does the blue and yellow stand for on the swedeish flag I dont think anyone knows for certain but there are many theories. According to the mythology, the Swedish 12th century king Eric the Holy saw a yellow cross in the sky as he landed in Finland during the First Swedish Crusade in 1157. Seeing this as a sign from God he adopted the yellow cross against a blue background as his banner. It has also been suggested that the Swedish flag might have been a resistance flag against the Danish flag, which is red with a white cross, and which has been known since 1219. According to this theory, the Swedish flag was created during the reign of King Charles Knutsson, who also introduced the Coat of arms of Sweden in 1442. The national coat of arms is a combination of King Albert of Mecklenburg's coat of arms of 1364 and King Magnus Birgersson's coat of arms of 1275, and is blue divided quarterly by a golden cross pattée. Other historians claim that the Swedish flag was blue with a white cross before 1420, and became blue with a golden cross only during the early reign of King Gustaf Vasa, who successfully liberated Sweden from the temporary tyranny of the Danish King Christian II in 1521.also this is top secret really any teachers dosent even know this so we give it to ypu for trying wiki answers thanks
