I can summarize Finnish history in four words... GET OF MY PROPERTY!
hippity hoppity get off my property :D
The "Jäger March" (Finnish: "Jääkärimarssi", originally "Jääkärien marssi"), Op. 91a, is a military march by Jean Sibelius. He set in 1917 words written by the Finnish Jäger, Hilfsgruppenführer Heikki Nurmio who served in Libau, in the Royal Prussian 27th Jäger Battalion of the Imperial German Army.[1] This unit was fighting against the Russian Empire, of which the Grand Duchy of Finland still was a part. The words were smuggled into Finland to Sibelius, who composed the song in Järvenpää. ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%A4ger_March )
*The Tavastia, Karelia, Dvina means current and former areas/provinces of Finland, with Tavastia being in the south, Dvina (now Russia) in the east, and Karelia (which is now split by Finland and Russia, i am originally from the now Russian part) in the southeast.*
Tavastians and Karelians are also former tribes, where wars between those two used to be a regular event
Yes, for example Karelian people's presence can be dated back to the 7th-6th millennium BC.
It was done before independence 1917, so it's about getting independence from Russia.
Finland was ruled under sweden and russia until indepence in 1917.
"How is finnish war history and how does it affect modern Finland?" Oh man... How much time you got?
"We wil rise like the revenge of Kullervo" is an referece to an old Finnish folkstory
Growing up in the aftermath of the massacre of his entire tribe, he comes to realise that the same people who had brought him up, the tribe of Untamo, were also the ones who had slain his family. As a child, he is sold into slavery and mocked and tormented further. When he finally runs away from his masters, he discovers surviving members of his family, only to lose them again. He seduces a girl who turns out to be his own sister, having thought his sister dead. When she finds out it was her own brother who seduced her, she commits suicide. Kullervo becomes mad with rage, returns to Untamo and his tribe, destroys them using his magical powers, and commits suicide.
There wasn't an army as you would think traditionally when this song was really made. Jaegars were finnish men send in secret to Germany to learn about warfare when we still were under Russian rule. We weren't able to have our own soldiers of course, we didn't have independence. Jaegars were the first trained soldiers when they finally returned from Germany and they have an important role in history of Finland.
The music composition is a bit special, since it was composed by Jean Sibelius, who is considered to be one of the premiere composers in classical music circles
When I did my conscription our platoon leader once asked: "Does any one know Jääkärimarssi?", before we started marching. I raised my hand (and I was the only to do so), and then our leader went: "JÄÄRÄMARSSI... KOLMANNELLA (on three)... 1... 2... 3!"
Nice reaction! i'm happy for this as a conscript of finland
The Finnish coat of arms has a lion. and if we talk about a lion flag, we normaly mean the Finnish flag with the Finnish coat of arms in the middle (e.g: the president of Finland uses that flag)
Another alternative meaning for the lion flag could be the first flag of independent Finland, the lion of the Finnish coat of arms on a red background. given the context, this might be the more likely meaning.
We fought about our Indepence, this is not just made for patriotism or army song. Every word is true. And we knew it very well.
Knowing of history is recommended. Just thinking that your enemy is Russia.
This is from the civil war era 1917
Before Civil War 1918
The Finnish lion is actually symbol of the fact that Finland is a western and democratic country and that we belong to the west.
If you look at the swords like the one that the lion is holding on his right arm.
That arm is protected with armour and the sword (Templar knights type of sword?) is hold high.
Then look at the sword that the lion is standing on.
That is an eastern type of sword.
It's not protected and the lion is standing on it and that is a symbol that Finland does not identify itself as an eastern society/coulture.
Standing on it is humiliating that sword and thus the society/coulture aswell.
We will always fight for our right to identify ourselves as we want.
Slava Ukraine and Israel 🇺🇦 👍🇮🇱, 🙏
There’s plenty of videos of Winter War and Continuation War. You might also want to check Simo Häyhä(white death nickname was given by his soviet enemy) who was the most succesful sniper in any war and did his part in only about 3 months.
This one is more of one of our war songs than army songs/marches.. The lyrics being the defining factor. More of a war cry in a chant than something else. Greetings from Finland!
Maamme is our national anthem
The logo with lion and two swords is the coat of arms in finland, there's a finnish flag version with it in the middle.
❤❤❤Kiitos
the flag is army flag alright
insignia would be better word, but the finnish army flag has the same lion
That hat must be unbearably hot in the summer
But thing is 3,5 million ppl vs. Russians 150 million aid by english, usa and others make quite different.
That makes Finns quite unique.
World war II...
Kind of ironic to think that without Russias occupation Finland would probably still be part of Sweden and the wars with Russia set our industralization and economy on a boost to pay iff our wardebts to Russia. Oh and btw Funland is the ONLY country in the world to pay its wardebt in full.
Leijonalippu (Lion Flag) was the first adopted flag of Finnish Republic among its formation in 1917, the flag was soon changed to its present from, but the Lion Flag is still widely used among the soldiers, and other a bit more nationalistic Finns.
And the emblem seen on the video is the emblem of the Finnish Ground Forces (Maavoimat), or just simply the Finnish Army.
Viena is another word word for Dvina

Jääkärit tulivat Pohjanmaan kautta! Via Österbotten!
To understand this song iand especially the text it is needed to know
our history. Thie same is now happening in Ukraine. To keep indepence against Russia.
They are provinces .
That flag is jeagerses flag
Dvina is at least bulgaria i believe, but Tavastia etc are finnish regions
It's Viena in eastern karelia(occupied by russia)
@@mustanaamiotto3812 ok thanks for correcting me
@@mustanaamiotto3812 Viena Dvina is Russian Karelie and it has been always part of Russia. North by Karelian Istmus near White Sea - Vienanmeri.

Mietippä Amerikkaan ei ole hyökätty, mutta Suomeen, Amerikka on hyökännyt muihin maihin, siksi tämä on tärkeä Fakta.. Sisu.
