People in the comments don't seem to get that 1. Åland is majority swedish speaking. 2. Finland speaks Finnish and Swedish. long live our two glorious nations
It’s very convinient that in Helsinki nearly everything also is written in Swedish. As a Dutchie with knowledge of German i can in most cases get the essential out of Swedish text.
The second point is kinda dumb. Only 5% of the population speaks it natively. And half of those 5% speak finnish in some way. Swedish is just seen as "the annoying thing you have to learn" for most finns.
I've spent so much time of my life on Åland Islands when i was a child. Since then i've visited all kinds of different places around the world, but there is nothing as magical as Åland. I will learn swedish, come back and never leave again.

@@monnaak Åland is a Finnish territory ultimately governed from Helsinki no matter its partial autonomy. It certainly isn't sovereign. The people might not have that much in common with mainland Finns, but Åland has been a part of the Grand Duchy of Finland since 1809 and now belongs to the modern Finnish state.
@@redrexi5448 It’s been part of Sweden for ≈700 years and part of Finland for ≈100 years.

Finland actually was an autonomous region of Russia between 1809 and 1917. Also, Denmark has the Faroe Islands and Greenland. The US has Puerto Rico and Papua New Guinea has Bougainville. So no, Åland is not the only autonomous region

@@stupidperson9250 We in Finland, could do it without them. Sweden is just a bunch of incompetent fools, fooling around. Just look at the corona situation. In Finland, it disappeared almost entirely, in Sweden, it is just rising by the day.
@@stupidperson9250 I do not see how that is relevant, Finnish people do not want to invade another man's land. But, Finland did defend against the Soviet Union in the late 1930's, and the early 1940's. -In The Winter War 21 396 troops were killed, 1 434 were lost and 43 557 were wounded. The Soviet Union losses were approximately 200 000 casualties and 600 000 wounded.
@@Borthax Well not exactly. Before Finland and Sweden were separated Åland was a part of Svealand. Svealand is one of the most important parts of Sweden, whence also the name Sweden came from. The majority of Åland has always spoken Swedish, around 95% nowadays and their dialect of Swedish is closer to Uppland Swedish than Finland Swedish. When Finland became free from Russia, there were large movements to reunite with Sweden in Åland, so large that the League of Nations had to get involved. Despite over 90% of the population voting to reunite with Sweden, the League of Nations instead chose to give Åland autonomy. Ålandic autonomy is one of the main reasons that they would rather be a part of Finland than Sweden. If they were to reunite with Sweden, they would loose their autonomy and become a Swedish landskap instead. In short, they voted for reunification, got denied and were given autonomy instead. They would rather have autonomy than become a part of Sweden again.
