It is geographically located in real life Finland, but the EarthMC version of Finland has a greater size than its real life counterpart, hence being named Greater Finland. It was established on April 26, 2019, and has a population of 30 as of February 3, 2020. Greater Finland also used to own [[Sweden]] as a colonial state. Some day in 2020 they united with [[Finland]] and now only Kekkoslinna remains in the nation. | ||

It all started when [[Ippez]] put idea of establishing Suur-Suomi (Greater Finland) to r/Suomi in Reddit, and some people gained enough interest in the server to start putting plans for Greater Finland in effect. The project started with the founding of [[Kekkoslinna]], and more towns joined over time. Before the nation was officially founded these towns organized on a discord server. The founders of [[Kekkoslinna]] assumed administrative and moderation duties with [[angryaxi]] holding the ceremonial title of president as the mayor of [[Kekkoslinna]]. | It all started when [[Ippez]] put the [https://www.reddit.com/r/Suomi/comments/bccimz/minecraftiin_tuli_11000_maapallo_serveri_jossa/ idea] of establishing Suur-Suomi (Greater Finland) to r/Suomi in Reddit, and some people gained enough interest in the server to start putting plans for Greater Finland in effect.

On the 28th of April, a follow up thread was made to the same r/suomi subreddit where the idea for Greater Finland had started about two weeks earlier. The thread quickly gained popularity, and reached 1.1k upvotes. The people of Greater Finland were hopeful for new members, but what happened surpassed everyone's expectations. Huge masses of Finnish Redditors were inspired enough by the post to come on the server, which resulted in Greater Finland becoming the fastest growing nation on the server. The capital [[Kekkoslinna]] overflew with new recruits, and the population cap was quickly reached. The population cap of [[Tampere]] was also filled soon after. The global chat was bombarded by Finnish messages, because most of the people were unaware of townchat and private messages. This resulted in the admins having to mute dozens of Finns, as the members of Greater Finland were apologizing and trying their best to deal with the influx of new members. The tide eventually slowed down and stopped entirely, but had already succeeded in making Finland one of the biggest nations on the server, at least population-wise. | On the 28th of April, a follow-up [https://www.reddit.com/r/Suomi/comments/bi0uxs/pari_viikkoa_sitten_t%C3%A4nne_postattiin/ thread] was made to the same r/suomi subreddit where the idea for Greater Finland had started about two weeks earlier.

<nowiki/>Many countries on EMC fall because of the long queue times, laggy server, arguably poor ownership and a general lack of interest because of the lack of a proper war plugin, and Finland was no exception. The conquering of [[Sweden|Stockholm]] was the last major event of '''Greater Finland''', after which the nation steadily declined. Some minor diplomatic events were held with [[Terra Mariana]], but as most of '''Finland''' still had negative, and perhaps even racist views toward the country despite [[Juuzoz_]]'s efforts to force peace and friendship down everyone's throats, seeing as wars were useless because of the lack of a proper war plugin, these would not be enough to retain Finland's interest in the game. Day by day, more and more inactive players were automatically booted from their respective towns, after which the very cities that once upheld the might of the Finnish Empire started disbanding. The community of the nation is still strong, with most members of '''Greater Finland''' moving onto a new Towny server created by [[Juuzoz_]] himself, PohjolaMC. | <nowiki/>Written by 0sku: | ||

A few stalwart Finns still continue playing to this day, but it is safe to say that '''Finland''' burned brightly but quickly, and is nearly extinquished. A public vote was held on when the new elections should be held, and the vast majority voted to just suspend them entirely. [[Juuzoz_]] Is still believed to come online every once in a while in order to deal with diplomatic affairs, and the ex Prime Minister of the country, [[0sku]], still plays on the server but has abandoned '''Greater''' '''Finland, '''but will never forget his roots, keeping with him the maps of every '''Finnish''' Major city, decorating his home with them. Because of Finland's isolationism, the majority of the server probably never even realized just how huge the country was at it's peak, on par with countries like [[Britain]] and [[Qin]], but in all honestly we preferred it that way. | A few stalwart Finns still continue playing to this day, but it is safe to say that '''Finland''' burned brightly but quickly, and is nearly extinquished.

=== Hibernation era === | |||
Although most of the players left for the new server and many towns were left abandoded, a few still remained, and the leaders logged on regularly to keep the nation alive. The nation has also gotten new members from the new towns in Finland and nearby areas that have joined the nation. At the same time, the [[Kalmar Union]] has extended its tentacles by forming new towns in Finland and even made their own nation called [[Finland]] on January 1st, 2020. These plans first caused some tension between Kalmar and Greater Finland, but now the situation seems stable and semi-peaceful. On January 4th, Juuzoz_ passed on the role of president to [[ipe89]], another member of Kekkoslinna and the nation's only moderator. He said that he would basically quit EarthMC to focus on his own server PohjolaMC ahead of the server's map reset. However, on March 8th, Juuzoz_ became the president again, and plans on doing reforms to revitalize the nation. | |||
=== Unification with Finland === | |||
After deals were made with the nation of Finland, the two nations of Finland and Greater Finland unified. A few weeks later, Juuzoz_ became the leader Finland, thus completing the unification process. | |||

The government of Finland consists of a President, accompanied by a cabinet of five Chancellors. The president mainly has a moderator-style role, with some of the more active chancellors working towards improving the country, just like in real life with the president and ministers. Finland has a party system, but this is mainly used for elections. When an election occurs, anyone can either run for office in an existing party, or make their own party if they so wish. The way the party system works is that every vote is given to a party, and the votes a party gets are divided among the party candidates depending on how they rank in the individual votes they get, the first one getting X amount of votes, the second one 1/2 of that, etc. These divided numbers are the numbers that are used when selecting new chancellors. The person who gets the most votes out of everyone is the new president of the country. | The government of Finland consists of a President, accompanied by a cabinet of five Chancellors.

[[Sir_Lewanlot]] is the current leader of the Greater Finnish Army, holding the unofficial title of generalissimo. Most of the Finnish population considers themselves ready for PvP whenever the situation demands it, but there is a special "conscript" rank for anyone who is bloodthirsty and patriotic enough. They will be pinged on discord as soon as they are needed, and will come online as soon as possible. There are 10-20 conscripts, and any conscript who has a queue skip is given the special rank of "Pikajääkäri", all of them being ready to strike at a moment's notice. | [[Sir_Lewanlot]] is the current leader of the Greater Finnish Army, holding the unofficial title of generalissimo.

After a public vote on 10th of July, elections were suspended, and Juuzoz_ would become the "Kekkonen" of Finland. After over 8 months of leading the country, he passed the rule of president on to [[ipe89]] in order to focus on his own server, PohjolaMC. | ||

He was also the leader of [[Super-Alko]], a fortress created in the middle of [[Terra Mariana]] land, however he disbanded the town on 13.8.2019, abandoned Greater Finland entirely and is now traveling the EMC world with [[Sir_Lewanlot]]. He will never forget his roots, and keeps maps of every major '''Finnish''' city that he uses to decorate his home, and remind him of where he came from. | *[[0sku]] was the self-proclaimed Prime Minister of [[Greater Finland]] for a long time, almost making it to presidency but both him and [[Juuzoz_]] got the exact same amount of votes, deciding together to let [[Juuzoz_]] stay as he was already the sitting president.
