Marie Curie was Polish but the French pretty much convinced the whole world she was French.
Good thing Linus is Swedish. If you knew history and read the wiki, you would know about swedish rule of Finland and that a numerable swedish minority stayed in Finland over the centuries.
Since his father is in the "Swedish Peoples Party", I will assume Finns casually use Swedish as a denomination for people who live in Finland but speak Swedish. I think he also talked about speaking Swedish at his home with his family.
Wow, lemmy goes to new lows every day. I cant understand why I have to feed this to you...
I've met him. He says he's Finnish. He was born in Finland and attended school in Finland. He graduated from the University of Helsinki. He has since moved to the United States of America. So he's a little bit American now.
Yep, typical Marie Curie intent. I guess Swedes don't have enough famous people.
Well they have their famous king, Kalle Kaviar or something
the knig <3
He says he's a Finn. He was born in Finland. He lived in Finland until he emigrated to the USA.
Then you say he's actually Swedish because he knows the language, his dad was from Sweden, and "Marie Curie". Bizarre.
What? You're confused. I'm saying he's a Finn. The other guy says he's Swedish.
I was confused. Sorry. Glad we agree.
