Mapping Stereotypes

[Transhumanist]

LOL..... yeah I know all about your rivalries....... have several Danes, Swedes and Norwegians as friends........ just like to get all of them into an argument.....

So...... tell me this....... who were the first "real" vikings?

I know the answer to that!

Norway!!!

 

[Hyperion]

Tell that to a Dane, and he'll go apeshit!

I know the answer to that!

Norway!!!

My Swede friend is right, for once. No Finland. Just Norway and its rouge territories.

But Finland is right next to you guys; in fact its connected with you guys !

Football? What's that. Can you play it with sticks, a puck or skates?

What is football ?

Football is the most beautiful sport to have ever graced the Earth !

Ice Hockey is a street fight while wearing skates !

Besides the whole world knows that the only real hockey is Field Hockey and guess who's won the most world cups in it ?

So the Vikings stopped at the Swedish-Finnish and Norwegian-Finnish borders ?

Somewhat, they largely left Finland alone:

Note : the yellow colour in England and in the south of Italy does not have anything to do with the Vikings, but with the Normans from Normandy.

If i'm not wrong,the Finns are uralic.

Yes they are. They share more commonality with ethnic Russians than they do with Nords.

Wait are you telling me that Finland isn't a Nordic country ? That the Finn are different from you guys ?

 

[Transhumanist]

Tell that to a Dane, and he'll go apeshit!

And if you tell it to a Swede he'll gripe about Norwegian wealth. Actually, there isn't really a common starting point, as noted here:

It is impossible to assign the various Viking groups at all precisely to places of origin.

HISTORY OF THE VIKINGS

Nei! Ice Hockey is the only true sport!



I'm hungry. I'll be back a bit later.

Good night people!

Very! As @Gabriel92 pointed out, the Finns are actually ethical similar to native Russians and not Nords, though they do have Swedish influence too.

The "Strong Minority" in Finland's ethnic makeup is of Swedish speaking decent, but many Finns take their roots from the Uralic peoples:

Uralic languages

Ahhh so when I have to tease you all I have to do is to call you a Finn !

Still a proud warrior tradition though. Manly, if often inebriated people.

Poland might be a better insult:

One of many famous Finnish snipers, "White Death," Simo Hayha in this case.

Finland's a nice place, a bit too sunny though. My Nordic eyes can't take the brightness:
