LE MONDE FINLAND<br />
FIN<br />
LAND<br />
THE FORCE IN<br />
THE NORTH<br />
After some years of economic<br />
struggle, the Scandinavian<br />
country which in December<br />
2<strong>01</strong>7 celebrated its 100 years of<br />
independence, has reinvented<br />
itself and is reentering the path<br />
of growth. In many ways, it<br />
may be seen as a mirror of<br />
Austria in the north, even in<br />
terms of iconic clichés: Finland<br />
has Santa Claus, Austria<br />
the Christkindl.<br />

Finland maybe offers the world's best<br />
northern lights. The ”Aurora Borealis“<br />
can actually appear more than 200<br />
nights a year – at least as often as you<br />

tree like in Suomussalmi (right).<br />
