Because of sauna, we don't think of nudity as a taboo as other nations.
Yet all mixed saunas require a swimsuit or towel
taboo*
@@VortechBand what? I've been to a few mixed saunas and I don't remember any of them requiring a towel or swimwear.
Yeah well, think about it. For example the US is full of diehard religious groups and 99% of them get focken nuclear if things have something to do with nudity or bare genitals in general. They just don't see bathing and being nude with friends and family or with strangers in some cases as a norm like we do. For sure, it's a cultural thing, but if you don't get the appeal, then just toodaloo, right?
Sauna is simply a traditional washing room. Being in a sauna has nothing sexual about it, unless you make it out to be. It's a routine of getting clean, like dinner is a routine of getting fed. You should act respectful and peaceful in sauna, like in the dinner table, or, like it was believed and my parents told me when I was little, the sauna elf/spirit will get angry. (And apparently, he is scary.)
Usually it's agreed that when strangers go to mixed sauna, everyone wears swimwear or towels, to not make someone uncomfortable. Most people are only comfortable naked with the same gender and family members. (Roughly teenage kids stop washing and going to sauna with their other sex parent, if not before.)
If everyone agrees with it and everyone are adults, naked mixed saunas are ok. Usually happens when people are fairly close (or a bit drunk and don't care).
Usually Finns think that going to sauna in clothes is gross, and that's why it's usually arranged that the genders (or families) go separately.
In swimming halls, the pool water has cloride in it, so swimsuits in saunas are forbidden. Otherwise, if you want to wear a swimsuit or towel for same-sex saunas, you can, and usually in those situations everyone will do the same thing. This usually happens with teenagers when someone is insecure about their body or with foreigners involved.

My favourite part about the Pizza Berlusconi's case is that Koti-Pizza advertised it with a slogan "Berlusconissa ei ole munaa" which literally translates into "Berlusconi doesn't have egg" (since they didn't use any eggs to make the pizza) but it also means "Berlusconi is dickless" Sometimes I just love our sense of humour :))))

@@moneymule8209 Just stop...
@@MrLicoriceTree It was a genuine question.
British actor Cristopher Lee (Saruman in LOTR, Count Dooku in Star Wars) volunteered to fight for the Finns in the Winter War in 1939. The Finnish command didn't actually let the few British volunteers to the frontline. They returned home after 2 weeks of boredom. But it's the thought that counts!
An interesting speculation is that the Finns might have been worried about spies, and thus chose to not allow the volunteers to the front.

The amount of lactose intolerant ppl in Finland is between 15-20%. Globally that number is other way around. So Finland actually has quite a big share of lactose tolerant ppl
Globally doesn't mean that much. Only European gene pool has high tolerance on account of adopting animal husbandry very early. So North-America, Australia, Russia and Europe have low intolerance. Rest of the world is roughly the opposite.
I occasionally wonder how it seems like some people don't know that lactose intolerant can also drink milk? Since there's lactose free milk.
@@wtfronsson yeah. But finland and other nordic countries have higher than normal amount of tolerant ppl. Even within europe.
@@eurasieraurora I am lactose intolerant and I do drink lactose free milk. The thing about for example southern european ppl is that they usually do not drink milk and the milk produse they use is usually from sheep or goat. That's why there lactose intolerance is usually not an issue.

I once heard from a fellow teacher that a possible reason for the name Suomi may relate to Finland having a ton of swamps,
Suo = swamp
Maa = land
Suomi..?
Ok, woah! So true
Dont forget the forests and the lakes
Yes, that is true indeed. During time the name has shaped to Suomi. - Fin that asked his teacher about this
That theory doesn't make sense because the word "maa" is ancient, and thus Finland then would be called "Suomaa". Words don't really change in Finnish, for example the word "Kuningas" is a loanword from proto-germanic well over 2000 years ago, and in proto-germanic the original word was "Kuningaz". Finnish is sometimes called a "linguistic fridge" because due to the nature of the language it preserves words in their original form for ages.
A more realistic assumption is that the name "Suomi" comes from the Baltic "zeme/sheme" which means lowland, as originally the word "Suomi" only referred to the Southwestern tip of Finland, or varsinais-suomi in Finnish. It's also probable that the word "Häme" also comes from the same word, but developed in a different finnic tribe in a different region in Finland. In the region lived the tribe simply known as Finns, and to the east of them were the Tavastians and the Karelians. But as the Finns were among the first to be integrated into the expanding kingdom of Sweden, their tribe's name became the common name to all the tribes in the area, hence these days Tavastians, Karelians, Savonians etc. are all known simply as "Finns". And similarly the word "Suomi" came to mean the entire country in the Finnish language.
Some people also suggest the word "Suomi" comes from the word "Suomu" (scale) because the people in that part of Finland were fishermen. There's a bunch of theories, but the simple answer is: we don't really know where the name originated from.
The word is so old that the word it came from has been long forgotten, and isn't used anymore anywhere, probably.
I think the "low land" theory is possible, since most names of locations in Finland describe that place's nature or purpose. I wonder if "suo" has any connection to the word "suomi" came from? Swamps are treeless lands, so they are low vegetation.
I have wondered if the name has anything to do with the verb "suoda" - "to give", "to bless". As in, perhaps, "[the thing] that gives [me]".
One possibility is that it comes from a Sami word. The Sami people inhabitated almost all of Finland before the Finns came. Perhaps they named that place first. The city of Oulu has its name from Sami.

No sir Finnish is an Uralic language , not a Baltic language.
It's a Finno-Ugric language, although not sure if you can even call it that anymore since 99% of the vocabulary are loanwords, mostly from Germanic languages and loaned during the past 3500 years. Out of all the words, only about 300-400 are uralic in origin, whereas for example there's about 5000 words from Swedish alone, as well as hundreds of words from German, old norse, proto-germanic etc. and loads of baltic loanwords too. Also the grammar has changed in parts to more resemble Germanic languages.

I spent a couple of days in Helsinki a few years ago and fell in love with it. The building that is shown on all of the interval shots where they show the numbers of the facts is the central railway station in the heart of Helsinki. Our hotel was just across the street and we took a walk over there to look inside. It's a beautiful Art Deco building built in the late 1920's and has 4 huge magnificent gargoyles on the front. One cool thing we noticed was when we looked up at the board showing train departures, and it showed trains going to St Petersberg. Having lived in the US most of my life, and hearing about what a forbidding, unreachable place Russia was, I thought that was one of the coolest things I'd ever seen. As for the language, it's completely impenetrable to English speakers. Luckily I had spent a few days in Sweden prior to going to Finland and had picked up a few words of Swedish. They came in quite handy when I was trying to find my way around since most of the street signs are in Finnish and Swedish. I also went into the cathedral (stunning) and the Stockmann department store shown a couple of times, which is a really nice store (bought a shirt there).
I think a cooler way to put it is, Tolkien based Quenyan on Finnish, which along with the others he created, he then based the entirety of his universe on. The language came first, then the story, and I think it's really cool and speaks to the impact Finnish and other cultures he derived his myths from in his stories had on them! In short, READ TOLKIEN PLEASE! It's an awesome, chill community and we'd love to have more of you!

Umm...
It is dangerous to use prehistory as a fact. You got the fact wrong. No crusades were apparently made from Sweden to Finland. All the Finnish Christian words are loanwords from OLD RUSSIAN, a language that was spoken in the Novgorod area 600 AD - 1200 AD. These include Bible (Raamattu), cross (risti), priest (pappi), sin (räähkä), pagan (pakana), god-parent (kummi), sexton (suntio), Hell, or the fiery place where sinned people went (pätsi). Also, the archeology of graves has shown they become Christian in Southern Finland - the proposed target of the 1st crusade - starting already around 900 AD, the same time when Novgorod got Christianed: weapons disappear from graves, the graves' orientation change to east-west while pagan orientation was north-south, bodies aren't cremated any more, Christian symbols increase, that's over 200 years before the alledged 1st crusade.
Also, the 1st crusade is known from the legend of Saint Eric. The legend was composed about 100 years after the alledged 1st crusade, which is supposed to have been made 1155 AD. However, the oldest survived version of the legend of Eric, is from 1270 AD, and it does not mention a crusade into Finland! Only one version, Registrum Upsalense, written 1344 AD, mentions the crusade. The legend was written to canonize king Eric, and hence it includes dozens of miracle works the saint did - the miracles were not true either, but they made him look like a holy man who did work for God's glory.
The 2nd crusade is supposed to have been made 1249 or 1250 AD. It is based on the Eric's Chronicle (this is a different Eric, not the Saint Eric previously mentioned), and it was written about 70 - 75 years after claimed crusade, about 1320 AD. Sweden has a papal bull (letter) of crusade from 1237 AD, which claims that enemies of the cross are threatening the converting priests and bishops have achieved, and the receiver of the letter should protect the Christians. However, this letter is suspected to be a later forgery: it does not have a copy in the papal archives, and it includes errors that the papal office should have well known, it for exampel says that the church of Finland belongs under bishopy of Uppsala, but it actually belonged directly under the Pope's legate at that time. The letter also does not name, who are the enemies of the cross. It's also strange, that while the bull is dated 1237 AD, the crusade would have been made 12 or 13 years later! Interestingly, AD 1245 the bishop of Finland, Thomas (Tuomas), is forced to resign, one accusation is that for he has forgered papal letters - so at least the idea is not unknown, even if he isn't the culprit of this particular forgery. Also, there are several papal letters since early 1220's that forbid trade between Novgorod - the papal seat considers Novgod as an adversory.
The Novgorod primary chronicles mention an important and big battle. AD 1240 the combined force of The Swedes, the Norwegians, the Finns (suomalaiset, the people of South-West coastal Finland) and the Tavastians (hämäläiset, the Finns of the rest of Finland) and a bishop come with ships to the Novgorodian lands. By the Neva river (in Carelia), the prince Alexander of Novgord gets a victory over them, and also gets a nickname "Nevski". Swedish history doesn't know anything of this war expedition. Or maybe it does, and in Eric's chronicle it is written as a victory, and erraneously placed to happen 10 years later.

@sisu mies Yeah, you really can't do better counter argument, because there is no evidence that they happened.
@sisu mies Apparently you have read the Wikipedia pages poorly. Let me quote them, to show there is NO EVIDENCE and many academics doubt they ever happened.
@sisu mies Finnish Wikipedia page about the 1st crusade: There is NO CERTAINTY if the crusade was made.
The description of crusade in the legend of Saint Eric WAS considered relatively credible until the 20th century.
The thought of bloody conquest of Finland fitted well together with the nationalistic history idea in Sweden and Finland. The reliability of this idea was started to be questioned in the early 20th century, but the idea still remained in history books and especially into history teaching.
MANY modern scientists regard it possible that the crusade was NEVER DONE. In this case is is a fictional legend written later TO BUILD HERO REPUTATION to king Eric who was WORSHIPPED AS A SAINT.
(I wonder how a crusade idea from Sweden fits into nationalistic Finnish ideology? IMHO it doesn't.)
Original Finnish language quotes:
"Ensimmäinen ristiretki Suomeen on Ruotsista Lounais-Suomeen mahdollisesti 1150-luvulla tehty ristiretki. Ristiretken todenperäisyydestä ei ole varmuutta."
"Pyhän Eerikin legendan mukaista kuvaa ensimmäisestä ristiretkestä pidettiin suhteellisen luotettavana 1900-luvulle saakka."
"Ajatus verisestä Suomen valloituksesta sopi hyvin yhteen nationalistisen historiakäsityksen kanssa sekä Ruotsissa että Suomessa. Kuvan luotettavuutta alettiin kyseenalaistaa 1900-luvun alussa, mutta käsitys ristiretkestä jäi silti elämään historiankirjoituksessa ja varsinkin historianopetuksessa."
"Monet nykytutkijat pitävät kuitenkin mahdollisena, ettei koko ristiretkeä koskaan tehty. Tällöin kyseessä olisi myöhemmin sepitetty taru, jolla pyhimyksenä palvotulle Eerik-kuninkaalle rakennettiin sankarin mainetta."
(As a born and raised Finn) I was told that the word "Suomi" comes from the words Suo Maa. Suo means swamp (which we have quite some here) and maa means land, earth, ground, and country. So it basically means swamp land. Which makes a lot of sense to me.

Ah Finland, Estonia’s and Hungary’s northern cousin
Well, all three of them are Finno -Ugrian speaking groups, friends.
hello
Finland is more like distant cousin to Hungary and a big brother to Estonia
And Hungary seems to... Have gotten angry at us. Read the news if you have no idea what that is all about. So yeah, two brothers and a cousin they don't have brilliant relations with... Also many smaller groups of people in Russia are relatives of the Finns. For example, the Urdu.

Btw, why Hungary is angry at us? What has happened between us and them?

As a Finn I daresay that "kalsarikänni" is the best form of drinking. And the literal translation is more like underwear drinking/drunk
Cunning linguist has to be the funniest grouping of words ever
Fantastic video, mahtava video
About pesäpallo, the national sport, the ball doesn't have to stay inside the field, it only has to hit the ground once while inside the marked area. After that the ball can roll over to the nearby river for example. There's always a small river or other watery ditch near pesäpallo fields.
Simputuspeli selvästi.
Espoo is the second largest city, I live there, its next to helsinki, but espoo has like 6 thousand or something more people than Tampere

This is like my history lessons from 6th to 8th grade. Fun. Seriously I love history, it was my favorite school subject.
You actually get 0.10, 0.15, 0,20 or 0.40€ per bottle ya return depending on bottle size here in Finland. And the lights on is a good indicator if the car is running or shut down while parked or on the road. It also helps to determine other things about the car.

I think it's hilarious that i just started having my rye bread when i clicked on this video... (I'm Finnish)
27 000 people died in prison camps after the civil war.... yikes
yikes: pronounced "uikes"
Don't tell them!
I dont know if you mentioned it in the video since i havent watched it all yet, but the Finnish province of Österbotten (East) and the Swedish province of Västerbotten (West) with "Botten" being the gulf of bothnia is a nice lil trio, just thoight i'd throw that in there
The scary thing is, I live next to a prison and a lot of people have gotten out of there. My friend lives across the street from that prison. Also there's a graveyard near our house even though I live in the city centre
