- "Dad, what's a Finn?"
— Lisa Simpson
"Well, it's not quite a Slav, and it's not quite a Norseman, but maahaahaan... heeheehahahaha...
So, to answer your question, I don't know."
— Homer Simpson
Finland is a country in Eastern Europe. It is bordered by Sweden to the west, Norway to the north, Russia to the east, and its cousin Estonia to the south via the Gulf of Finland. Finland was one of the founding members of the Eastern Union.
Finland is widely regarded as a capable military adversary after pwning the Soviets during World War II. For some inexplicable reason, FDR was able to recruit Finnish mercenaries who harrassed Free Western Army units in occupied territories following the Second Napoleonic War.
