Right. But If I say Aland, who but you and Anders would know what/where that is? If I just say Sweden, I am insulting Aland.
I'd think that would be more insulting to Finland than to �land, actually, since �land formally is part of Finland and not Sweden, even though historically �land has had closer ties to Sweden.
Sometime in the early 1900's, a referendum was held on the island, where the inhabitants voted to belong to Sweden, but Finland claimed it anyway.
Lasse, what is the current status on that? What do you �l�nningar think nowadays?
