The nation of Finland has embarked on a new path today as the national government has rolled out a $100 billion dollar plan to overhaul the nation's education system. "Too much money has been wasted on weapons of war in a time when conflict has become swift and resolute," said education minister Riiko Dzind today. The $100 billion dollar national endowment will be used to supplement mostly disadvantaged universities and colleges throughout the nation, while higher end universities such as the University of Helsinki and the Republican University of Finland will receive modest 20% increases in endowment. This massive influx of money into Finland's education system is seen by many as an investment in the future of the nation of the Republic of Finland, during a time where superpowers are waging massive conflicts abroad, sidelining smaller nations such as Finland.

(OCC: evidently college apps and school isn't as important as CN) IC: Declaration of the Finnish Republic The Shetland Islands base was the result of a legal treaty between the Republic of Finland and Great Britain. Since that base is now, as a result of hostile foreign action, no longer functioning, the Finnish Republic does not consider it vital to its defense interests to continue any claim to the area. However uninvolved and uninterested Finland may be in international affairs, the Republic of Finland is a sovereign entity that exercises jurisdiction within its mainland territorial borders. The Republic of Finland rejects all notions that its existence is false.

The United States of the Islands has been exercising internationally-recognized sovereignty in Europe for a long time now. Finland will not stand and watch a resurgent, belligerent Britain bring war to the North Sea so soon again. If aggressive actions are taken by Britain against the United States of the Islands, the Republic of Finland will take actions it sees appropriate to preserve stability in the region.

Finland will consider the former English-Finnish agreement to be still valid, and as a result, continue control of the Orkney-Shetland military complex.

Security overflights of the Orkney and Shetland islands have begun. Although Orkney is a completely military settlement, Shetland still has a few English settlers. They will be allowed to remain in their homes if they wish, or submit to bunkers to shelter and detainment. English civil forces will be detained until further notice. The Finnish Navy North Sea Fleet has set sail from Vadso for the Orkney and Shetland islands.

Permission for the jet to land will be granted. Magistrate Kozarovska will be greeted with full diplomatic honors. "Hello, and welcome to our humble nation," says Foreign Minister Dziarkki when the Athenians had landed on the tarmac.

[b]Official Declaration of the Republic of Finland[/b] The Finnish government is extremely disappointed to see its allies Slavorussia and Germany attack another ally, England. However, due to the complexity of diplomatic relations with the belligerent nations, it would be imprudent for the Finnish nation to involve itself in this war. However, in the interests of Finnish defense capabilities, the English base in Porkkala, Finland will be closed immediately by Finnish ground forces. All English base personnel will be interned with hospitality for the duration of the conflict. Furthermore, we have no choice but to declare the Orkney and Shetland islands, currently leased to the Republic of Finland and the locations of the biggest overseas military complex of the Republic of Finland, to be under the protection of the Finnish nation. We strongly warn all belligerent nations against military operations in the area of the Orkney and Shetland islands. Thank you, and may God save us all.

The Republic of Finland sends its deepest regrets.

You in boiling Africa seem to forget that in Finland, ITS ALWAYS WINTER. The AIDS infected needles freeze, the Ebola spores freeze, and the Sarin gas quickly seeps into the frozen ground. Good job.

Breivik explodes with a burst of crazy laughter. HAHAHA WE GOT YOU MUSLIMS NOW. And presses the activation key for regional SAM defenses. 3 highly maneuverable S-400 SAMs blow the small subsonic jet out of the sky.

We can offer the Helsinki Shipyards "Viktoriya"-class Corvette [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/HMS_Helsingborg_2.jpg/800px-HMS_Helsingborg_2.jpg[/img] Displacing 640 tonnes and possessing anti-air, anti-surface, and anti-submarine capability, the radar-stealthy Viktoriya-class Corvette is a budget deal coming in at 2.1 billion markka (or 2.4 international dollars)

Finland gives up. Replacement Warlord Anders Breivik has issued a surrender document: Africa is truly the most powerful nation on earth. We invite the African leadership to Finland for a great music festival on an island.

Alfred Schlinn has announced today, amid rampant criticisms of his post-Korhonen regime, that a coalition of Leftist parties has won the next election. The next President of Finland will be the party leader of the Moderate Left.Fi Party, Paavo Arhinmaki.

A retaliation from Finland came today, after the release of a psychotic islamophobic killer onto the streets of Helsinki. In the chaos, newly-empowered warlord-for-life Ronald Reagan has announced "My fellow Ameri- ehhh Finns, I have signed legislation outlawing poverty forever. We begin bombing in five minutes." In five minutes, hundreds of thermonuclear warheads pounded Africa into a lifeless extension of the Sahara Desert.

The landing of Ronald Reagan in Finland drew out hundreds of thousands of closet right-wing reactionaries. They were quickly gunned down by Finnish Defense Force APCs and combat gunships, putting an end to the rightist movement in Finland forever...
