About the map
Finland is located in Northern Europe, along the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Bothnia. It’s a part of Scandinavia with Sweden and Norway to the west. The Gulf of Finland separates it from Estonia by a distance of 80 kilometers (50 mi) between Helsinki and Tallinn.
Additionally, it shares a land border with Russia to the east over 1,300 kilometers (808 mi) long. The capital of Finland is Helsinki and is the northernmost national capital of any European nation.
Some of the things that Finland can boast about are that it’s the happiest country in the world, has the cleanest air, and has the world’s best education system. It’s also home to the one and only Santa Claus, who resides in Lapland, Finland.

Finland Regions Map
There are nineteen regions in Finland, which are the first-level administrative unit in the country. Each region consists of second-level units, known as municipalities. The main role of regions is for regional planning in cooperation with municipalities in Finland. However, the island region of Åland consists of mostly Finland Swedes, and its governance has more independence in comparison to other regions in Finland.
