I ll start by saying I m very passioned about this country. I ve been there once and afterwards I really wanted to learn more about the past of this country and how it came to be. It is short and concise, making it easy to comprehend. What I didn t like is that it did not talk enough about the actuall finnish people and their culture.

Felt like a kids school report. Main dates and brief description of important dates but no substance or story.
