Independence day in Finland December 6th is independence day in Finland! This year is 98th in Finland. Actually Finland is young country:D Finn people pray for their family, friend, Finland. In the Morning, they put up a national flag and light a candle. Finland is the world's number one consumer of a candles. I also went to church to pray for keeping peace Finland and of course world.
