  • @klaabu99 Other people brought their language (finno-ugric) to presence of Finns, and Finns started using the new language, and shaped it to their own version. But I guess, that it is too hard for you to understand, that many languages have come from different places, than their speakers have...

  • Someday Vyborg is returned to Finland WITHOUT war.

  • @Peppepoppldoppl Yes it is, originally. All those old buildings there are designed by Finnish architects. Prior to 1944 Finnish families had lived in the Karelian Isthmus for centuries, under both Swedish and Russian rule.

    By the way, do you know what was the "nickname" of the Vyborg Governorate when it was reannexed to Finland after the Swedish-Russian war 1808-1809? It was "Old Finland".

    So there you go.

    So there you go.

  • @Mikey84 No, Vyborg is not Finnish.

  • @Peppepoppldoppl Vyborg IS Finnish, founded by a Swedish king and inhabited mostly by Finnish civilians during its history... And robbed from us by Soviet Union...

  • @Mikey84 Vyborg is not Finnish because Finns have no culture

  • Aika epätodennäköistä että Venäjä luopuisi Viipurista vapaaehtoisesti ainakaan nyt kun sille elintärkeä Nord-Stream -kaasuputkikin lähtee sieltä...

    Toki totuus on se että kaupunki ryöstettiin suomalaisilta.

  • @Higgsbosone

    "Quite sure these pictures are of the occupation of Sortavala 6/1941"

    You are right.1:45-2:00 is definitely Sortavala.

  • @kaahaajaFIN

    no it means i was born in 0099...

  • @klaabu99 Yes they brought the language to the presence of todays finns ancestors? You know, back then, most european people were hunter-gatherers, so they didnt (like we do nowadays), stay in one place and live there for the rest of their life. They went where ever they found food. I think that the''99'' after your name means that you're born in 1999...

  • @kaahaajaFIN

    so they brought langue to finland and left or died after that.... did i got it right?... u know language can travel only with ppl back then they didn't had internet yet ...

  • @klaabu99 lol a 12 year-old?
