Finland is a welfare state with the aim of securing for its 5.2 million
inhabitants equal opportunities for a good life and for the most
efficient use of its resources as possible.
The geopolitical
location between West and Easthas always been reflected in the country’s events and goings
on. With this combination of western and eastern influences, Finnish
culture has developed into something strong and highly individual.
Just like the Finns themselves. In the section Finnish Way of
Life you’ll find basic information about Finland and the
Finns.
