Aland Islands

AX

Where the only thing more abundant than the islands themselves are the number of times you'll hear "Finland is not a country, it's a region... of Finland!"

Åland Islands: Where the capital city of Mariehamn is so charming, you'll want to marry it... and then get a divorce because it's just too small.

Åland Islands: Where the phrase "Finnish is the official language" is a cruel joke, because everyone speaks Swedish and you'll never understand what's going on.

Åland is an autonomous, demilitarized, and Swedish-speaking region of Finland.

It consists of over 6,500 islands and skerries, although only about 60-80 of them are inhabited.
