Suomi 100 - Finland 100

[Jojo87]

My country turn 100 years old Dec 6th. We became a independence country 1917
We are thankful for our old war veterans, without their brave fight we wouldn't
live in a independence country today.

Finland is a good country to live in and most of the people are quite happy to live
here. We still have this thing called "Kaveria ei jätetä" transl. leave no man behind
it's a phrase our veterans used and did during the war and it's still in every Finn's
mind. We really care about each other here too.

So with these words I want to say a BIG Congratulations to FINLAND!!!






I heard and read that many countries are going to light up their places with blue and
white. Now our world is going to be blue and white for a while.

Have to admit to not knowing much about Finland, tbh, but everything I read or hear seems to suggest a people and a society doing a lot of things right.
So, congratulations, Finland, and keep up the good work!
