Recent studies of
Finnish and
Scandinavian history and
linguistics are suggesting that the
legends of Kalevala might be
true (to some point at least) and Väinämöinen has been the king of
Finland and
Scandinavia.
And the history that has been taught so far is due to the lame Swedes who were the ruling class in Finland back a century or two ago. They rewrote history so that it would favour them and Finns would feel dumb and wouldn't rise against them.
