About this listen

Uncover the incredible story behind one of the happiest places in the world.

Finland is a beautiful yet often overlooked country, famous for its windswept landscapes, icy temperatures, hardy people, and thousands of crystal-clear lakes. From its earliest inhabitants at the end of the last ice age, Finland has carved out a place for itself in the far north, creating a thriving economy, resilient culture, and a unique way of life that makes it a truly awe-inspiring place to visit.

Now, this book sheds light onto Finland’s diverse and vibrant history, reflecting on the wars and conquests, the advancements in human rights and liberty, and its long journey to becoming a wealthy, happy, and popular beacon of western civilization.

Delving into the early Finnish culture, the country’s conquest in the 20th century by Russia, and the conflicts with Sweden that stretch back hundreds of years, you’ll also discover Finland’s role in WWII, the Cold War, and how this fascinating country rose to become a leader in quality of life. This incredible book is a must-listen for anyone interested in Finland.
