#Finland is unimaginable without its proud pines.

Even #Helsinki's famous #Olympic stadium has one.

Built in 1938 for the 1940 Olympics that never happened, it finally hosted the 1952 Olympics - a great feat for a small nation that had just fought back the Soviet Army to retain its independence, though losing important territory in a settlement it was forced to accept.

The architects were Yrjö Lindegren and Toivo Jäntti. The stadium's functionalist language is convincing even today.
