    Finland, despite the language thing and having had both a brother and sister work in Norway

    But I am on the reclusive, unemotional side. Finish people tend to seem more calm and closed, while Norwegians appear more energetic and outgoing, but maybe just my impression

  2. finland, people there are just more like the average person here.

    just feels more natural despite the languages being very different.

  3. Finlands sak är vår. (och de är andra bäst i Norden på hockey)

    It depends on what part of Sweden you are from. East coast from Stockholm and north have deeper ties with Finland. West coast and much of the inland have deeper ties with Norway, though some parts of the inland have many people with Finnish ancestry.

    Living in southern Sweden its definentely Denmark at least. Unfortunately. And I think the answer will vary depending on where in Sweden the person you ask lives.

    Out of those two I think it depends. Varies from area to area. In a way we are perhaps more similar to Norway in language and “temperament” (in lack of better words), but much more intertwined with Finland both today and even more historically.

    A lot of what is Finnish feels almost Swedish, like Mumintrollen, KAJ, etc, because there are so many people with Swedish heritage in Finland and vice versa. The Swedish-Finnish border also seem a lot more living both in Norrland and in the Baltic Sea, with Norway being so protected by mountains.

    Finland, my entire family is Finnish and I still have some living relatives over there so I’m obviously biased

    Norway, our happy well-adjusted wealthy younger brother, and we’re not at all jealous of his success or the fact that mum likes him better.

    It’s interesting because the Swedish/finnish border in the north is heavily intermingled with many Swedes being bilingual, same in the fenno-Swedish areas in Finland.

    However there are very few areas where the same intermingling between Swedish and Norwegian communities and cultures occur, mostly due to geography.

  9. I live in Stockholm and the answer for me is abviously Finland. We and the averages finns are quite similar but norwegians are rich and not very industrious. Finns and swedes are very industrious.

    Finland. They’re the cool older brother. Norway is the brother who brags about how awesome he is and just comes off as obnoxious.

  11. Tie.

    The Swedish society, state and economy has more similarities with Finland, the nature is more similar for the most part, and there are lots of cultural connections. Also the only other (partly) Swedish speaking country.

    Norway is physically closer, and much more present. I meet five to ten Norwegians in Sweden for every Finn, and I visit Norway much more often than I visit Finland. shares the common Scandinavian ancestry with language and culture on a different level.

    As somebody from the west coast I feel way closer to Norway.

    Norway.
    I live in the western part of Sweden and to be honest I’ve not really interacted with any finns or fennoswedes.

  14. 4skin_Gamer on

    My mom is Finnish so I’ll always feel closer to Finland.

  15. Both. 

    I can’t choose. I like both. They are our sisters and brothers.

    If you live in the far north of Sweden, the question is probably “Do you feel closer to Finland or Sweden?”

  17. Viskes_Lopme on

    Norway. But then I’ve lived near the border to Norway some years.
