Finland Visa Travel Insurance - General Information
Finland is located in Northern Europe, bordering the Baltic Sea, the Gulf of Bothnia, and Gulf of Finland, between Sweden and Russia. The capital is Helsinki which is the northernmost national capital on the European continent. The country has a population of about 5 million. It has two official languages: Finnish and Swedish and about 85% of the population are Lutheran.
Finland was a province and then a grand duchy under Sweden from the 12th to the 19th centuries and an autonomous grand duchy of Russia after 1809. It became fully independent in 1917, and during World War II was able to successfully defend its freedom and resist invasions by the Soviet Union.
In the second half of the 20th century, the Finns have made a remarkable transformation from a farm/forest economy to a diversified modern industrial economy. Its per capita income is now on par with Western Europe.
The climate of Finland is marked by cold winters and fairly warm summers. In the far north of the country the sun does not set for about 73 days, producing the white nights of summer. In winter the sun remains below the horizon for 51 days in the far north. In summer the temperature quite often rises to +20 Celsius or more and occasionally goes close to +30 in southern and eastern parts of the country. In winter, temperatures of -20 Celsius are not uncommon in many areas. Finnish Lapland invariably has the lowest winter temperatures. The mean temperature in Helsinki in July is +17 Celsius and in February -5.7 Celsius.
