Did you know that in Finland...?

Postby tulaka » 06 December 2008


Finland is the first country in the world after coffee consumption per citizen, and is the only country which indicator is growing.

The famous Linux was created by the Finnish student Linus Torvalds.

The company "Nokia" brings to Finland about 40% of the national income.

Finland is one of the few countries where euthanasia is allowed (the act of killing someone painlessly, esp to relieve suffering from an incurable illness).

Finland officially allows prostitution and unisex marriages

Finland's population is only 5,000,000 people.

The Finnish language is considered to be one of the most difficult in the world (along with Hungarian and Russian).

I'm reading the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson, who was Swedish. Every other paragraph a character is drinking coffee, so I think this may be a Scandinavian thing. I'm off to Finland in a couple weeks, then Norway. I'll let you know.
