Latin and Finland?
I knew that Finland had radio stations that broadcasted in Latin, but I was completely unaware of just how much the country uses the language!
Finland makes Latin the King (by Jonny Dymon, BBC News):
"Finland is one of the quieter members of the EU. But now its turn at the EU presidency has thrust it into the spotlight - and exposed an unusual passion. Like the boy at the party with cheese straws stuck up his nose, it has been caught doing something vaguely disturbing - indulging a penchant for Latin."
