    I try to give you some ansvers to the questions.
    Salmiakki is ammoniom cloride (actually a white powder) that is usually mixed with licuirice and sugar to make the sweets that where on the video. Something we grow up with, but not so common outside nordic countries, Germany and the Netherlands.
    Saunas are really common here, more saunas than cars. On average every family has at least one.
    Angry Birds is a product from Rovio, a Finnish gaming company. Other things that came from Finland are Linux operating system (most web-servers run on it), Kone elevators (biggest brand in the industry), Molotov coctails (the name came from winter war against USSR, even though the firebombs were used in Spain way earlier). Most likely Nokia is the best known company abroad.
    About architecture, Helsinki is a mix of russian and swedish influence, plus some other imported ideas mixed with local design. Quite uniqe combination.
    Please check out "Finnish Nightmares" or "Very Finnishh Problems" for some more 🇫🇮 content.

    I was born in Finnish Lapland and in my home village the sun stays above the horizon for almost 2 months, about (and below the horizon for ca. 1 month in midwinter). This summer I stayed in my childhood home for one month during that time. Where I live now, the longest the sun is above the horizon is almost 20 hours (about 20th of June each year).

    Sauna is big things here. Seriously, there's like 2 million saunas here (3,2 mil if you count illegal ones too) and a home is not considered a 'real' home if there is no sauna in some form, be it electrical or traditional with a wood-heated stove. Currently there's just about equal number of saunas and passenger cars registered. Probebly the best sauna experience comes from a lakeside cottage sauna, where you can heat the sauna with logs, listen to the crackle of the flames, take a dip in the lake after some really good löyly and afterwards sit on the porch and listen to nature (with a cold one in your hand).

    Welcome to visit our (Fin)land when we get rid of corona! I was born in Northern Finland (Kemi), spent early childhood in Middle Finland surrounded by lakes and from there on living in Southern Finland near Helsinki. Ps. I've being enjoying your Nightwish journey - I've been listening them for a decade and still gives chills 🤟

    Thanks for learning about Finland! Yes, we do have a sauna in our home like most Finns do, and yes, the light summer nights are great. Then again the dark winter nights are the other extreme and many people suffer from depression during the winter months, but personally I like the winter, too. Lots of great Finnish music for you to react to: "The Bee" (official lyric video) by Amorphis, "Time" (live rehearsal at the Sonich Pump Studios) by Wintersun, "Pale Morning Star" (official lyric video) by Insomnium and "The Cathedrals of Mourning" by the Belzebubs, the heavy metal cartoon characters. Enjoy! 🤘🤘

    Finns invented the sauna. That's why it's a big part of our culture. Other big Finnish inventions are e.g. text messages, abloy locks, heart rate monitor, xylitol, etc. Nokia and the first mobiles are also Finnish. Also angry birds. However, if you want to get to know Finnish culture, the winter war plays a big role in that. How the Finns survived as a small nation in the fight against the Soviet Union and managed to preserve their independence. Since we are a small nation, every Finn took part in the fight. Women too, even if they weren't at the front themselves. And every Finn today is a descendant of these soldiers. So thats why it is big thing in our culture. Make a reaction video about the winter war and watch movie / netflix serie called "unknown soldier" if you want to get to know Finnish culture. We are a peace-loving nation, but a stubborn one. We won't give up, no matter what. That is called Finnish Sisu. 🇫🇮
