Finnish (culture or style)

Refers to the culture of the modern nation of Finland, or in general to cultures that have occupied the area of northern Europe, south of Norway and east of the Gulf of Bothnia. It may also be used to refer specifically to the culture of the historical Finns, who are generally understood to have been the Suomi or Suomelaisset and who spoke a language of the Ural-Altaic class. It may also refer more widely to the cultures of other peoples closely allied ethnically and linguistically to the Suomi.
