Forest Republic of Finland - Forest Relationship is Genuine and Unique for Finns

- Finland is the most forest-covered country in Europe and the #forestrelationship of Finns is unique. This video presents how this forest relationship is both preserved and changing in this modern age.
Most of the Finnish forests are owned by ordinary families and part of this #forestownership ethos is that #forest estates should be left to the next generation in a better condition than when you got it.
Forests are private property but at the same time they belong to all of us. #Everymansright, also known as “freedom to roam”, enables free wandering, as well as picking berries and mushrooms - often to the amazement of foreign guests.
With the help of its forests, Finland has gained a top place among the welfare states. The utilization of forests has always been creative work, in which new technologies and products have replaced old ones. Right now, we are living in the middle of a great change towards bioeconomy.

Forest Republic of Finland videos are based on the popular and rewarded “Suomi on metsäläinen” television series. These videos represent the unique forest relationship of Finns, and the meaning of forests to Finland and its people. The videos may be used for instance in the communications of forest companies. Forest Republic of Finland episodes are independent programs with the lengths of 26 and 8 minutes. Production of this program has been made possible by the funding from Metsämiesten Säätiö Foundation and Finnish Forest Foundation.

Finnish forests are like magical fairy forests, i can't explain the feeling you get when you're in one. Only word i can think of is Magical. We have this deep connection to our woods / nature which i absolutely love!
Bullshit. Finnish forests are mostly tree farms. Not actual forests. Woods with Trees mostly being over 50-150 years old are almost extinct. But our government propaganda is working very well. "Magical forests" they are tree farms, not forests ffs.
@@alainerookkitsunev5605 Oh bullshit to you, no they definitely is not. The city planning even starts with the notion how to preserve the forest. Read a book once in a while.
@@thekamekimmo City planning? You do know Finland doesn't mostly consist of cities, right? Ofcourse they let trees grow at cities for the hipsters, but besides that and the national parks there isn't much of "real" forests in Finland. Id say 25% at best and most of it in the far north. (And ill say it again, tree farms, consisting mostly of 1 or 2 types of trees under 100-150 years old are not forests, and this is not an opinion but a fact).
@@thekamekimmo also, did i hurt your feelings? I have read books, just not the same books as you i suppose...
@@alainerookkitsunev5605 Ah, you are a troll. And no, the comics you read are not same as books.
Every sentence you start with "You do know Finland something something" and think you'll know better, just don't. Born and raised in here.

@@ralfhaggstrom9862 Hello Ralf!The covid situation stopted me.I dont do tests and it is dificult to leave the country.
@@nikolai841hey, how is it going now?
Come on over Nikolai!
I feel an unexplainable sense of calm and joy around trees
Actually I became fond of Finnish culture and society, after my son joining his masters in information technology in Tampare University. And day by day I am really amazed by it's forest and forest based economy, but this country also developed in computer science, mechanical, technology and other fields. Your video is really informative to me. Thank you very much.
All that film of Finnish forests and not *one* lost metal band?? Can't be real :) \m/
To the intro it should be added that it was not only the forests but the abundance of water ways as well that made Finland attractive. They provided food and transportation.
Eu adorei a finlandia por quer voces vivi da natureza pranta tudo aquilo que voces tirra dela
This is so calming! From where I belong we can't see much trees let alone forests. Moving to finland is my much cherished dream. For one reason I will be able to touch these magical forests and I will feel safe while doing so... ❤ people born in finland you guys are so lucky! I wish I was that lucky 😢
To stranger all Finnish forest looks magical. As a born Finn i see difference between protected forest and forest in economic use. Like day and night.
hyvä video.
The Finns have a very special relationship with the Finnish forest.
You probably mean the Sámi indigenous people.

The reason for the development of Finnish timber was that it was repaid with $600 million in Soviet war compensation.
I had a frend visiting my home, and one day we walkd thru Keskuspuisto (Central Park) from my place to hes hotell on another side of the park. Park is about 400-500m wide at that point, and there is a walking path, and ligts.
My frend , who lives in New York was horrifyd , truly scared if there is junkies or murder/rapist behind every other bush or tree.
He told that Manhattans Central Park is a place he , who is truly big guy, woud never go after dark.
There are killers atleast, they're called wolves and bears
@@samimiettinen5539
But not in central park.
@@lassemanninen4750 True... After that guys desapricption of central park, I wouldn't want to visit... But it's on my list to see in US, maybe not night time
In ww2 germans felt safety in open fields and finns liked the forest
I'm from western ghats in india one of the thickest forest in the world. Trees are all the same these are all cultivated forest. But still pleasant
You seem stupid. There is 5 million us in a large country. Now how do we cultivate it all since only a minority works in the forest. 70% of a country with 5mil
@@Raakarapu I've been all my life in a forest, forest is included with different flora and fauna that has take 1000's of years to develop, yet this forest has two few species of trees. It's definitely not natural.

British Columbia is only 57% and that makes me very angry
Suddenly wool and hemp arent a thing
Здарова фины
Sounds a bit like dutch
Be careful not to make it a soviet fortune.
Soviet union ended 24.12.1991. Finland is a member of Nato anyway.
Finland was never a part of Soviet union. Never under communism and never an eastern bloc country.
The Finnish trees only grow because the forestry business is eager to cut them down. There are almost no old forests left in, only endless rows of synthetic mono-culture plantations. When driving or walking through these commercial forests, all you can see is graveyards of felled trees, and deep trenches caused by heavy machinery. No animal wants to live there since it's not a real forest. Sure, there are some beautiull spots in the national park reflecting how the the old forests used to look. But do not fool yourself, Finland’s forest area has become the Amazon of Europe. What little wildlife there is left, gets hunted down by hunters eager to kill, using the commonly seen excuses of "wildlife management". It's not a place for any tourist except in winter season.
The Sámi indigenous people together with several wildlife activists seem to be the only voices out there aiming to protect and preserve the old forests.
@kivikunnas saamelaiset asutti koko suomen alueen itseasiassa ennen meitä suomalaisia. Niinkun Amerikassa intiaanit. Kolonialismiahan tämä on ja väkivallalla ja sorrolla hallitaan heikompia. Nyt viiään oikeuetkin kohta pois että saahaan muutettua loputkin rahaksi. Onneksi sentään Sodankylän pohjoispuolella on vielä oikeata mettää jäljellä missä kulkea. Alkuperäiskansat ei hakannu metsiään rahaksi tai padonnu jokia. MEIDÄN esivanhemmat on esimerkiksi tuhonnu Euroopan parhaimman lohijoen. Muunmuuassa. Ja hukuttanut sompion kulttuurin ja kylät Lokan altaan pohjaan.
@@AlbertKarhuFilms Kyse ei ole ollenkaan kolonialismista, sillä ”suomalaisia” ei edes aikojen alussa ollut asuttaessaan suomea. Oli vain joukko heimoja idästä joka sitten kiteytyi aikojen saatossa yhdeksi maaksi ja kulttuuriksi. Joten väite siitä että suomalaiset olisi jotenkin ”vieraalla maalla” on aivan väärin.
@@AlbertKarhuFilms Suomalaiset polveutuu hyvin pitkälti niistä kaikista ihmisistä jotka tänne on aikojen saatossa muuttanut. Saamelaiskieliä on ehkä puhuttu etelämpänä (jotka ei muuten myöskään ole "alkuperäisiä", vaan sitä ennen täällä on mm. puhuttu paleokieliä ja kantaindoeurooppalaisen kielen koillismurteita), mutta kantasuomen kielen tänne levitessä ei täällä ole niinkään suurta muutosta tapahtunut geneettisesti väestössä, vaan kyse on pikemminkin ollut kulttuurillisesta muutoksesta, joten tuo sun vertaus saamelaisiin Amerikan intiaaneina on aika kieroutunut.
@@Zuukable Et selvästikään ymmärtäny mitä mie tarkotin, mutta ei taida sulla olla kokemusta kyseisistä asioista. Monen mielipiteiden esittäjän ongelma täälä netissä on nimenomaan se että ei ole minkäänlaista kokemusta asioista ja seku vain huudellaan ja esitetään asiantuntijaa ko on perehdytty asioihin. Vai voitko sie väittää että valtion yhtiöt ei olekaan padonnu (mm.) kemijokea ja vieny jokivarren ihmisiltä lohta? Eikä hukuttanut kyliä tekoaltaiden pohjalle? Eikä ole vieny alkuperäsiltä ihmisiltä oikeuksia ja mahdollisuuksia harjoittaa elinkeinojaan pohjosessa, tai tehny kaivoslakia joka vaikeuttaa monen paliskunnan poronhoitoa ja saastuttaa joet? Sitä miekin. Heitä tuo tulkuttaminen helevettiin ja tehe muutaki ko toista jonkun toisen paskapuheita faktoina.
@@AlbertKarhuFilms Mä en nyt varsinaisesti ole siitä eri mieltä kanssasi etteikö täällä ole luontoa pilattu, mutta toi vertaus Amerikan intiaaneihin ja kolonialismiin särähti aika pahasti korvaan. Täällä on hyvin kauan elänyt sekä suomalaiset että saamelaiset, jotka osittain polveutuu ihan samoista ihmisistä, ammoisista ajoista lähtien. Toinen näistä porukoista vaan siirtyi karjatalouteen ja maanviljelyyn ja toinen pysyi kauemmin metsästäjä-keräilijä kulttuurissa ja sitten myöhemmin vielä toinen teollistui ja toinen siirtyi poronhoitoon.
Vertaus intiaaneihin ja Amerikkaan, minne espanjalaiset ja englantilaiset meni kolonisoimaan tuhansia vuosia alkuperäisasukkaiden jälkeen, toiselta puoelta maapalloa, on aika eri juttu kuin saamelaisten ja suomalaisten suhde tähän maaplänttiin jota nykyään Suomeksi kutsutaan ja kuulostaa melko yliampuvalta syytöstrippailulta. Eiköhän kolonisoijan roolissa ole meidän historiassa enemmän olleet ruotsalaiset ja venäläiset.
Landless poor.
It is a welfare Nordic country with high standard of living.
