[@mariamm9460]

Hi Mauro, great video😊..Paavo Johannes Nurmi 13 June 1897 - 2 October 1973) was a Finnish middle- and long distance runner..He was called the "Flying Finn" or the "Phantom Finn" because he dominated distance running in the 1920s. Nurmi set 22 official world records.. dominated at distances between 1.500 metres and 20 kilometres, and won nine gold and three silver medals in his 12 events in the Summer Olympics Games. Thanks, and have a great day 🇮🇹❤🇫🇮

Nokia began in 1865 as a small pulp mill in Finland and gradually expanded into industries like rubber, cables, and electronics. By the 1990s, it shifted focus to mobile communications, quickly becoming a leader with popular devices like the Nokia 3310. Despite its early success, the company struggled to compete in the smartphone era, eventually selling its mobile division to Microsoft in 2014. Today, Nokia concentrates on telecom infrastructure and 5G, continuing to play a significant role in technology. Nokian tiress are still made today, I think in China but with Finnish standards and are one of the best winter tires in the world.

Nokia tires are still made in Nokia (the town in Finland) but they have factories outside Finland too.

The tyre company split in 1988 when they started thing one humongous company making unrelated things wasn't the best idea. That's why tyre brand is these days "Nokian", not "Nokia". They also had big factory in Russia, emphasis on "had", until a couple of years ago. And the Nokian Jalkineet wellington boots are made by yet another company these days, the industrial rubber products became Teknikum and the successors of their bicycle tyres are today Suomi Tyres. But they did make computers, first minicomputers (in the 70s sense) and then PCs. I guess before EU you could just buy what things from the domestic company, so all the schools seemed have those MikroMikko computers.

Your pronounciation on the Finnish names was very good! We're gonna get videos completely in Finnish soon :D Have you ever reacted to Kimi Räikkönen radio thingies while he competes? Those might be fun to see.

Turku burned 1827, Helsinki was capital earlier, since 1812. Aleksader 1 wanted capital more near Russia than Sweden. Turku burned 31 times since 1200. Biggest fire was 1827.

[@Aurinkohelmi]

Actually Nokia first made tires and rubber boots, Electronics came later 😆

[@Skege1000]

Took words of my mouth. Kiitti kuitenki

[@nikovarinowski8807]

@penaarja you're welcome! 👍

[@jroutasula5250]

When you talk Paavo Nurmi, you should talk Ville Ritola too.

[@hienosaatoa]

I warmly recommend Ompelijatar (The Seamstress) from Yle. It goes over the persecution of Finnish communists in 1930-1940. Very well produced!

[@tomi_9212]

[@taukohurina]

For some perspective: The area now known as Finland is the ancestral home of the Finns, but the concept of Finland as a sovereign nation did not exist until the early 1900's. Sweden did incorporate the area now known as Finland waaaaay back in time, and Finland counted as an integral part of the country of Sweden for about 6-700 years - NOT some conquered foreign land. Finland was called "East land" in Sweden, as it was the eastern part of the country. The inhabitants spoke predominantly Finnish (naturally) but were counted as Swedes in the grand scheme of things. Did Swedes become the "ruling class" in Finland at this time? Yes, but the fact that the majority of Finns were peasants was no different to Sweden-proper - Swedes in Sweden were also predominantly peasants and were also ruled over by the same type of Nobles, so it was nothing special about that, in reality. Sweden may have ruled over Finland, but it was Finnish and Swedish hands together that built the foundation of what is now known as Finland, and our cultural ties are very strong to this day. About 6% of Finlands population speaks Swedish as their native language, so that is why you could see a few Swedish-sounding names amoung the Finish ones in the video - like "Linus Torvalds", for example. The Baltic states were however part of the Swedish -Empire-, note the difference. These states were conquered by Sweden and counted to the Empire, but were not part of the Swedish land, if that makes sense. Estonia in particular was "Swedified" to some extent and as far as being more or less occupied goes, being under the Swedish Empire is today remembered as far better than being udner the heel of the Russians

[@jvalfin3359]

His pronunciation of Martti Ahtisaari is actually done very well. It didn't sound Swedish to me.

[@owlietowlie4015]

Hi Mauro! If you want to read something by Finnish author I'd say Waltari and The Egyptian if you want more Finnish twist check Michael The Finn
