  1. There’s so much wrong with this map that I don’t even know where to start.

  2. It is rather accurate, but the capital was not Helsinki at that time. It was Åbo.

  3. Of course, but then the bloody Swedes spoiled the good times.

  4. Most European cities before Roman rule can be traced back to ancient Finns.

    Even today most of them can be translated into Finnish quite easily.

    Venezia = Venesija (site for boats)

    Marseille = marssitaukosija (site for troops to rest on a march)

    Sevilla = se villainen kylä (that woolen village)

    Athens = Athene goddess = Anttilan tilan ämmä (the matron of the Anttila family)

    etc etc etc

  5. Look at the dates and ask again. Those dates go back to pre-pre-history and beyond the ice age, when this place was covered mile high in ice. Come on.

  6. Of course. Anyone who speaks otherwise is spreading blatant misinformation

  7. Actually it was the Ancient Hungarian empire…

    Finland and Estonia are just remnants of that.

  8. Yes, we Finns lived under the ice during the ice age and built or cities there. The so called Atlantis didn’t sink in to the sea, it was covered in ice.

  9. A lot of people are trolling, saying “yes”. I hate to be that overly serious asshat who doesn’t like jokes but I’ve studied the Finnish pre-historic era and the answer is NO, it’s not true.

    In reality, the empire stretched much, MUCH farther. What you see there is basically just the empire’s innermost ring, nowhere near its actual influence. In fact, both the first Chinese dynasties and the oldest pharaohs of Egypt trace their common ancestry to the ancient Finn-Kings, it’s well known among historians. Now, let me tell you about the theory that the myth of Atlantis is actually about a small mökki island in the Finnish archipelago…

  10. It is true dont look it up. Just trust me Im a…. historien.

  11. I think so. Originally we built the aqueducts and filled them with beer.

  12. Ah yes, this was the time after Finno-Korean-Hyper War

  13. And the most widely practised form of martial arts was Teräs Käsi.
