I thought, please, I know that history, not fully, without looking up. So I appreciate all the specifics. However after WW2, up until about 1955, a number of years, Russia had an internal conflict. It was against a territory between Finland and Russia. I cannot remember its name. If it's possibly even the Russian part of the peninsula. It was technically a part of Russia, but it had a mixed Finnish/Russian population? In this feud, Finland possibly acquired more territory.
The border remained loose for a long time. Up until recently. Now it's getting big fences and becoming militarised.
The stupid nigger downvoting my account, every post, is nigger tier. The dumbest nigger on this planet. At what point are there those niggers on this site. Attacking a user.
There was no such thing. 1948 peace agreement settled all questions between Finland and USSR. In 50s Finland already was one of rare western capitalist country friendly to USSR. Finland even often supported USSR in league of nations and later UN on different international questions. Trade between countries was pretty intense in nearly all spheres from groceries and furniture up to nuclear power plants (one of Finland NPPs was built by USSR) and heavy machinery.
I think you'll find Karelia was in conflict. Parts gained and lost by the Finnish.
Main reasons for war, dating back longer, and continuing longer than direct Finnish wars.
The population Russian/Finnish
That was before WWII, in 1920 and 1939-1940 wars.
It also continued after WW2 until 1956. After the Continuation war in 1944.
It is almost exclusively, the other was Communism, the reason for regional conflict.
