A girl from the Ryazan region
The Ryazan region was significantly influenced by Finno-Ugrics, which is still noticeable in the genetics of the local population and their culture.
Finnishness is a broad concept, encompassing the Finnish people, language, culture, group identity, and even how outsiders have defined us over time. Defining it precisely is challenging due to its many facets. Historically, Finns are mostly descendants of prehistoric settlers, with minimal mixing from migration compared to the rest of Europe. This isolation shaped the Finnish genetic uniqueness.
The Finnish language, spoken for over 6,000 years, developed to meet the specific needs of its speakers. It reflects the distinct worldview of the Finnish people, serving as the most natural means of self-expression.
Beyond ancestry and language, Finnishness as a feeling and identity emerged later, in the 19th century during a period of national awakening. This identity brought together values and characteristics associated with the Finnish people, uniting them through shared language, origins, religion, and a sense of belonging. This unity proved resilient during the deepest crises in recent history.
Finnish identity is a mosaic shaped by personal backgrounds, including local identity, education, family history, gender, and more. For someone from South Ostrobothnia, Finnishness might relate to a proud rural heritage; for a Laplander, it might mean a connection to nature and survival skills. Each individual experience adds to the broader sense of Finnishness.
Finnishness is thus what Finns say and do daily. It is a collective state of mind that binds everyone, from Lapland's wilderness to the cities of southern Finland. Despite differences, these experiences shape and sustain Finnishness. It’s a mindset that unites when the community faces challenges.
From Suomen Sisu's perspective, Finnishness represents the past, present, and future of the Finnish people. It is not a brand to be reshaped by authorities or money but a heritage to be preserved and developed. As a nationalist organization, Suomen Sisu aims to safeguard the well-being, culture, and continuity of the Finnish nation and its language, guiding future generations as it has empowered those before us.
Original text by Suomen Sisu
An exhibit at the National Museum of Chuvashia displays a replica of the braid of Tatyana Petrova. On May 23, 1842, Sokolova brutally assaulted 18-year-old Tatyana from Chirikov village, tearing her hair out and inflicting severe injuries. The investigation revealed that Sokolova regularly abused her serfs; another girl died in 1842 after a severe beating on Sokolova's orders. Despite this cruelty, Sokolova faced only a warning from the court, highlighting the impunity landowners enjoyed under the oppressive regime.
This cruelty was not unique to Sokolova. Similar accounts describe Darya Saltykova’s brutal methods, including tearing hair out with her fingers. These historical injustices reflect the suffering inflicted on the Uralo-Altaic people under Moscow's domination.
Even after serfdom's official end, Moscow's colonies, including Chuvashia, remained captive to oppression. Supporting Moscow's rulers, both past and present, is akin to endorsing the mockery and subjugation of the Finno-Ugric peoples.
The region of ceded Karelia served for centuries as a borderland and battleground between Sweden (Finland) and Russia, shaping its unique population history. For example, the first border between Sweden and Russia (Treaty of Nöteborg, 1323) divided the area for 300 years into Swedish and Russian Karelia. Does this show up in DNA results? In the Treaty of Stolbovo in 1618, Sweden gained control of the entire Käkisalmi province for 100 years. As a result, the population of the "conquered land" — especially in Ladoga Karelia — changed dramatically during the 17th century, in some areas almost entirely. Orthodox natives moved en masse to Russia (forming Tver Karelia). Lutheran settlers replaced them, arriving from the "Finnish" side, particularly Savo and Viipuri Karelia. Most of the later families in Ladoga Karelia are descendants of those 17th-century arrivals. The last major population shift occurred in 1944 when over 400,000 residents of ceded Karelia were evacuated to other parts of Finland.
🇫🇮The population of Eastern Finland is fundamentally different from the Western Finns (30), the genetic distance is particularly large with Swedes (70), Russians (69) and Northern Germans (EFIN-GER 85). Eastern Finns are therefore a genetically isolated and "idiosyncratic" population, who are not closely genetically related to "anyone". The map also shows Sweden's "Westernness" or "racial kinship" with the Nordic human type of northern and central Europe.

🌌 Tengrism says that the first KAM (shaman) is said to have been a woman. That's why the shaman's clothes should look a little feminine. The photo shows a Sakha-Turk female KAM (shaman).

🇹🇷 Commemorative coin printed in 1976 on the 100th anniversary of Ziya Gökalp's birth. The blacksmith and the Sky-Maned Wolf who showed him the way.
