Imagine if the rest of Europe was as revanchist about each other as Finland is to Russia
They fought one short border war in the lead up to WW2, but to hear the Finns talk about it they make it seem like Russia was personally massacring every single civilian they could for fun on their way to burn down Helsinki
Imagine if France still held out a deep mistrust and hatred of the Germans for two world wars, or the Belgians for the Franco-Flemish war. One war a century ago and Finland can’t get the fuck over it
