Is that why Cass and Snolb play daemon armies? So they can win wars without a a single grasp of tactics required?

We dont need war hereos... Everything we meet runs away like chickens.

Squiggoth · **Posted:** Tue Jun 30, 2009 10:44 am

That's because you never leave Sweden!

snolb · **Posted:** Tue Jun 30, 2009 10:48 am

Sweden is a great country! We dont spell Martin with a J!

That's because your vocal chords haven't evolved properly yet!

hey, i think at some point WE owned/or bombed all of you. so hush now

As an interesting fact for you, did you know that only once was war declared between two democracies, and it was Britain and Finland!

Another interesting fact, not a shot was fired.

peace

No that's because we have evolved the most beautiful and perfect language in the world, unlike Finish which has nothing to do with Scandinavia and dutch like... well let's not talk about it

Interesting points of view, Cass.

"The linguist and author Tolkien considered Finnish to be a particularly beautiful language, and described his youthful discovery of Finnish as inspiring him to pursue a linguistic career ("Finding a Finnish grammar book was like entering a complete wine-cellar, filled with bottles of an amazing wine of a kind and flavour never tasted before"[18]). Several of Tolkien's invented languages, notably Quenya, are stylistically related to Finnish."

"The most famous example of the Kalevala's influence upon another author is most likely with Tolkien. He claimed the Kalevala as one of his sources for the writings which became the Silmarillion. For example, the story of Kullervo has been extensively used in the Silmarillion (including the sword that speaks when the anti-hero uses it for a suicide) as the basis of Túrin Turambar in Narn i Chîn Húrin. Echoes of the Kalevala's characters, Väinämöinen in particular, can also be found in the wizards of The Lord of the Rings."

What are the swedish influences on the Tolkien books?

1 - 0 for Finns
