“Long history” “few hundred years”

I heard the classic American log cabin comes from New Sweden and her Finns.

Visit the Nordic Museum in Seattle if you get a chance.

God bless the Enclave.

God bless America. 🇺🇲

Hyvää Päivää 💯

The flag of Philadelphia is yellow and blue because of Sweden.

Is it true that “Kamala”
in Finnish means “horrible”?

While not as large as in the Lake Superior region, there is a sizable Finnish-American enclave in the Ashtabula area northeast of Cleveland, near the Ohio-Pennsylvania border at Lake Erie.

Tervetuloa käymään!

From the Upper Peninsula here, from what I can tell from the stories they didn't migrate here because of the climate. It's because the copper mining boom and nobody else would work such dangerous jobs and such a harsh climate except the Finns. They went where they could go en masse and have jobs waiting.

da yoopers!

Vote for trump

All finn shall vote for trump

Every Finn should know their native language and culture. if you have Finnish blood coursing through your veins be proud of it. We might be few but we as stubborn as they come. It's that stubbornness that not giving up attitude that has carried us through the hardships that we have faced. it's called SISU.

My ex was part Sami and we're from Wisconsin

If you wanna hear what American Savolax Finglish sounds like when sung, I recommend listening to Lännen Lokari (Western Logger) by Hiski Salomaa. Salomaa is arguably the most iconic American Finn. The song Lännen Lokari is the song people hear when think about American Finns, it's basically the Finnish American equivalent of Säkkijärven Polkka.

Finland isn't Scandinavian, but it is Nordic

A Finnish man was a signer of the Declaration of Independence, John Morton (Marttinen) - his family settled in New Sweden along the Delaware.
Finnish roots in America go back even further than their mass migration here. Beautiful people and a wonderful contribution to America!

My great-great grandparents were Finns from Ostrobothnia who settled in Thunder Bay, unfortunately the culture had pretty much disappeared past my grandfather's generation

contrary to what a lot of ellis islanders like to complains about the only time a european ethnicity has ever been regarded as potentially asiatic (officially) were finns funnily enough and even that case was thrown out of court. I also recall there being something of one of the early 20th century immigration race classification guides and it had finns as some asiatic group funnily enough

Torille!
