The first Finnish immigrants in America moved to the region of present-day Delaware in the 17th century. The local Indians started calling them "sweat lodge people" or "white-men-who-are-the-same-as-us" because the Finns went to the sauna. Because of this, the Finns got along well with the Indians, and during the first American Indian Wars, the Finns' homes were not destroyed.

My grandparents all immigrated( separately) from Finland from 1883-1906, and ended up in Northern Minnesota( though my paternal grandparents initially settled in North Dakota, and my maternal Grandmother spent her first couple of years in Boston). I was born in the Mesabi Range, and lived there until the age of 11. It does not really surprise me that Finns and Native Americans gravitated towards each other, as they had so much in common.

@Ryuuoo_ 7 месяцев назад

There was once place called 'Finntown' in Brooklyn, NYC, at its height it was home to some 20,000 Finns.

@alha7040 7 месяцев назад

and their relationship was good also because both respected and took turns teaching the other. The native population of America taught a better hunting style and other things, and the Finns taught how to build houses and other things. in it, both shared their own knowledge with the other and were respected on both sides. there are also a few times when the native American population attacked the Europeans by setting houses on fire, but they knew where the Finns lived and they left their houses alone. History is so interesting!

Nice to know. First Swedes and Finns traveled to America on a sailing ship in 1638 or 1640 and one of the so called founding fathers was Finnish descent John Morton whos great-grandfather Martti Marttinen was a Finn with roots in Rautalampi, Finland. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Morton_(American_politician)

@TPacoustic 7 месяцев назад

There were so many finns moving to America back in the day, that even Titanic had her restaurant menus in finnish. Something like 80 finns drowned there.

@leopartanen8752 7 месяцев назад

"The prominent role of Finnish immigrants in the 1907 and 1916 Mesabi Range strikes in Minnesota led to blacklisting of Finns. It was a time of anti-Finnish sentiment in the area, and one could see signs "No Indians or Finns allowed."" "The term jackpine savage was used in northern Minnesota during the early 1900s, referring to the term Indian savage used for Native Americans. Finnish businesses were also harassed with the pretext that they were illegally dealing liquor to Native Americans."

Indians and Finnish sami people have same kind of houses, the Indians have "tiipii" and the sami people have "Lapin kota". The vocals and music also sound the same

@finnicpatriot6399 7 месяцев назад

All Finno-Ugric peoples have kota. It's related to other East Asian words like the Japanese koya. It isn't uniquely Sámi. The sámi should stop constantly claiming Finno-Ugric culture and life as uniquely their own.

Indians respected Finns also because they know how to build a boat, and and they told stories at campfire at the right way.

@sjc9121 2 дня назад

The Finnish author, Katja Kettu, has written the book "Fintiaanien mailla" (~ On Findian's lands) on this subject. I have that book on my shelf. Finns' and Indians' perception of nature is very similar. We have a lot more in common in our way of thinking, social relations and other things - like sauna. Naturally.

@statostheman 7 дней назад

My late auntie, told an folklore from Karelia Isthmus. I can be wrong, but there was a lot so called shamans and fortune tellers came from. Do not get upset what I'm telling about this story, because this is how it was told back then: During the Ice age, there was two tribes. One had a darker skin, the other had a lighter skin. Both tribes lived in peace. Due of the shortages of food, both tribes decided to travel up north. For better hunting grounds. Then one day, both tribes started arguing with each other. The tribe with a darker skin left and decided to travel over the sea and landed the shores which became north of America. They became the Native Americans. The lighter skin stayed put and they became the Sami people. There is an documentary here in YT, called as "The Waterfowl People". I can a lot of smilares between Native American people and the Finno-uric people. Also, look up here in YT: "Origin of the Finns, Hungarians and other Uralians".

@dr.donroccolahti7312 7 месяцев назад

I grew up in this area discussed in a small town called Cloquet, Minnesota and yes, my family were referred to as "Finndians." Since my Finnish roots were from northern Finland, we have more Asian blood and many of our people resemble native Americans to the point that they were indestinguishable from the Indigenous Native people. I have not heard the term "Finndian" in a very long while since I have resided in Asia for several decades now. Cheers

@henkkahenrik4183 7 месяцев назад

Honestly considering Finns as in any way asian is such a weirdly American thing. I think it mostly started from the discrimination Finns faced during the Asian exclusion act, when certain "scientists" branded Finns as asian because of our language, culture, and certain facial features such as smaller eyes and higher cheekbones, and Finns were denied jobs and citizenships because of it. In actuality, Finns or Finnish people are a Baltic Finnic ethnic group native to Finland. So basically we're a group of our own.

@sampohonkala4195 7 месяцев назад

Roughly 150 000 Finns immigrated to the USA in the late 1800's and early 1900's. This is a lot - the population of Finland was 3 million, so this is 5% of the entire population; even over 10% in some municipalities. There is one slight mistake in the video - no part of Finland was ceded to Russia after 1809, when Finland became an autonomous grand duchy. Quite the contrary, in 1812 part of what had been Finland earlier and lost in previous wars was returned to the grand duchy of Finland. Finns only lost their homes when land was ceded to the USSR after the Winter war of 1939-40. At that time the immigration to the US was more or less over as Finland was independent and the living conditions were improving fast. To confuse this a bit more, the majority of the Finnish immigrants were Swedish speakers from the Swedish speaking areas along the Finnish coast.

@henkkahenrik4183 7 месяцев назад

Also during the late 1800s/early 1900s U.S, Finns were denied American citizenships and not given certain jobs under the Asian exclusion act, because they were too "Mongolian", despite us being some of the whitest motherfuckers on this planet. They used our different language and culture and some of our facial features to classify us as asian. Many Finns actually pretended to be swedish to avoid discrimination. That's why Finns were often called "China swedes" and why there are still some jokes and stereotypes about Finns being "mongols" in the U.S.

@jvalfin3359 7 месяцев назад

My father actually has 1% Native American ancestry, which would mean I have it too. I have no clue how that's possible, but that's what the ancestry scientists say about our lineage. Weird. We live in Finland, so that raises some interesting questions.

@PaJR Месяц назад

There are approximately 600,000 descendants of Finns in the USA and 130,000 in Canada. It is not surprising if some of them have also married American Indians.

@kilipaki87oritahiti 7 месяцев назад

Proto Finns migrated from Siberia Asia to Finland Scandinavia during the Last Ice Age, they brought pale skin and blonde hair, as the highest concetration of blondes in Europe today is found in Finland. The 1st Europeans who had migrated from the Middle East was dark with blue eyes, as the general European today are dark, and the Middle East is the craddle of all white people, and the 1st civilizations. Proto Finns was distant related to all 1st nation/indiegnous people of America. But they later intermixeed with the Yamnaya, Anatolian farmers from Turkey, and lastly the Germanic farmers aka Vikings, and turned into what the modern Finns as well as Estonians are today. Their cousins the indigenous Sami has retained their ancient culture, and to some extension the lifestyle.

@finnicpatriot6399 7 месяцев назад

This is ancient, outdated, pseudoscientific bs. Proto-Finnics arrived in Finland in the 1st century AD, not the last ice age. You just made a mistake of ten thousand years. You're thinking of WHGs, not proto-Finnics. Pre-Uralics (ancestors of Uralics), only began migrating from North-East Asia around 6000-8000 years ago. Literally everything from archeology to genetics to linguistics vehemently disagree with you.

@ristovirtanen6396 7 месяцев назад

As Finland was part of Sweden until 1809 Finns were assumed to be Swedes in early American immigrant history. Also then they were known to treat native Americans as equals and not savages like the conquistadors did. 🤔👌

@Pataassa 3 месяца назад

As a finn, I know that many of my relatives has left in usa about the end of 1800 but i know nothing more of them. I know only those who stayed here in Finland. But I can see in myheritage that I still have relatives in usa. A lot. So maybe they are findians. 😅 I can't really blame those ones who left. They were looking for better life at the time, when finland were under the russian rule. Peoples who lived then, had already a really big traumas for everythink that finnis people had been through. React for "the greath wrath" subject if you want to understand our history better.

@DR_REDACTED 7 месяцев назад

This is complete news to me (a finn)

@gfhsxdf5769 3 месяца назад

It ”began” way before than 1800’s. When New Sweden was found most of the settlers were Finns because crown forced them to leave sweden, mostly forset finns in todays swedens area and some peasants from todays mainland Finland. Yet they forced the Finns, something like 5th class citicens to settle in the forests in their log cabins. So the ”indians” befriended Finns and even had a word for them something like ”whites that are like us” and didnt raid Finnish settlements during their attacks on new sweden

@ArchieArpeggio 7 месяцев назад

I found out of this thing propably about last winter and i am native finnish living in Finland. I am not religious but kind of spiritual indeed. So i´ve been saying for a long time that i don´t feel religius at any way. I feel more like "American indians" as the spirits and the way i respect the nature. When i saw this video i were like "Wow! I can see myself in there!". I´ve seen some longer document as well and there were some native tribes (i don´t remember the tribes) but they were talking finnish imigrants as a white people that are like us.

@stiglarsson8405 7 месяцев назад

Yea the more you learn the more one know how little one realy know! Its like in US in old days, to become a citicen one have to be "White", "Afro-american" or "Native american"! Soo as US now and then is all about race, for good and bad reasons.. in the begining mostly for bad reasons, today to a big extent to kinda compensate for old prejudicate??? In anyway, one did "scientific studies?" and did find that Finns was not only asians, but altso more prone to unionanise and be comunists! IE they wasnt granted the same rights and become "China-Swedes", probably becuse many of them come frome Sweden! And then to sweden, finland was part of sweden frome late viking age to 1809, when Russia took Finland as a bouty! It was still this that a big chunk of northen sweden was a finn and sami territory.. easy to fix, swedenize that territory, force everyone to swedish schools and swedish church! And force them to speak Swedish, and pledge allegiance to the swedish flag!

@j3mixa 7 месяцев назад

That race thing sounds so ridiculous to me because their defenition of race was more political than biological. They just decided that Finns were not white because our language wasn't Latin or Greek based like most other Europian languages. What amuses me the most is that they totally ignored that in fact Finns were "whiter" than anyone else. Even today there are more blond, blue eyed people among ethnic Finns than in any other group of people in the whole world 😄.
