Sudet Germans and Finland Swedes

After reading what happened to Germans in Czechoslovakia between 1918 and 1938 (with Hitler coming as a revenge), I am very thankful that neither Czar Alexander nor (obviously) Marshal Mannerheim was acting like a Doctor Beneš to the Finland Swedes.

Some of the best Swedish literature is by Finland Swedes, and the country is less dechristianised than Sweden.

OK, I admit that Finland Swedes also may be more prejudiced against Catholics, and this goes for part of the literature I am referring to as well.

Now, readers, my own text here is not very informative, but if you click the links, then you will see what I mean!/HGL
