Eduskunta

"Suomi kuntoon, Suomi kuntoon!"

- Ancient motto of Galactic Center

Eduskunta was democratically elected parliament of Finland between 2282 and 2441. As such, it enjoyed supreme legislative power in Eduskunta space. For most of its history, Eduskunta was governed mostly by right-wing and centrist politicians.

History
In the year 2282 Union Of Space Squid collapsed and Finland became the supreme nation of The Galaxy. The Old Eduskunta was quickly reorganized into Eduskunta, which borrowed much from the ancient parliament of 21th century. The first government was formed as a coalition between Change 2011 and Galactic Centre. During its first years, Eduskunta de-swedified the galaxy and started promoting Finnish language and values. In Markka War the government crushed separatist Vesa Keskinen and his extremists. Eventually the markka was brought back as the official currency of Finland.

During this period, Finland fought multiple wars with The Skrall Empire and their vassals as the Finnish colonists expanded westward to previously uncharted space known as Wild West. Eventually the Skrall Empire is annexed to the Finnish star nation. Eventually Change 2011 lost its popularity as Finland was no longer threatened by any foreign power that could easily be blamed for problems of the nation.

During Eduskunta Era, Rap Order enjoyed hegemony in Music and carried considerable influence in internal politics of the nation. The Rappers acted often as a peace-keepers alongside Finnish Defence Forces. The Rap Order eventually brought the demise of Eduskunta, as it was dragged into Rap Wars, which brought the downfall of Eduskunta.
