Lol.

Well, Slavs are pretty varied anyway. From Russia to Belarus, down to Macedonia and Bulgaria, but are tied together by the connection to the Slavonic tribes. In the case of the South Slavs, there a stronger Neolithic component, as well as a strong Illyrian connection.

I don't even consider Poles, Czech and Slovaks 'real' Slavs. Too Central European.

Ha! The populist True Finns party (PS) continue their decline in the opinion polls, -0.9% since September:



KESK = Centre
SDP = Social Democrats
KOK = National Coalition (centre right)
VIHR = Greens
PS = True Finns
VAS = Left Alliance
RKP = Swedish
KD = Christian Democrats

Doesn't seem like a very big drop, no?

No, but it's gone on for every month. It's a huge drop from the 18% they got in the elections.

Others. Parties which aren't in the parliament. Communists, Pirate Party etc.

edit: BTW, did you know that the CIA funded the Social Democrats for long after the war? Better a bit on the left than radically on the left they thought. As Finland didn't take any Marshall Aid due to the opposition of the USSR, the CIA had a hard time just handing out cash. So instead the US donated goods which were rationed, like coffee, which the SDP officials sold on the black market to fund their actions.

A little bit of curious history there.

I feel closer to Persians than Finns. Ukrainians and southern Russians are from the areas formerly inhabited by Scythians, an Iranian people. The Scythians in Eastern Europe were eventually Slavicized.
