Finland Who?​

Thanks to a Reddit thread, there is a theory that Finland is a fictional landmass, concocted by the Japanese and the Soviet Union during the Cold War in an effort to secure fishing rights in the Baltic Sea. Reddit user Raregans suggested Finland’s population is actually made up of people from eastern Sweden, northern Estonia, and western Russia. While this theory likely began as a joke, it quickly gained traction online and expanded—expanded to claims like the fish that are caught in “Finland” are shipped via the Trans-Siberian railway to Japan under the disguise of Nokia products. To those that believe this theory, the railway and Nokia were created for this sole purpose.

No need to book a flight to fact check. The Internet has spoken.
