Study In Finland

Finland, a Nordic nation in Northern Europe, is bordered to the west by Sweden, to the north by Norway, to the east by Russia, and to the south by Estonia across the Gulf of Finland. With Helsinki as its capital, it is split into five areas. Finland’s official languages are Finnish and Swedish, and it uses the euro as its currency (EUR).

Finland’s economy is mostly free-market and heavily industrialized. Since recent years, exports have accounted for more than one-third of the GDP, trade is crucial. Finland’s industrial sector, particularly the wood, metal, engineering, telecommunications, and electronics sectors, is highly competitive. Except for timber and several minerals, Finland depends on imports of raw materials, energy, and some components for manufactured goods. For the rural people, forestry serves as a secondary vocation and is a significant export earner.
