Baltic Countries
Photomontage is when you arrange a lot of images, pretending to present an idea. Finland is a Baltic country that has many stereotypes, like snow and blonde women. In this description I will talk about the stereotypes of Finland and its relation to my photomontage.
In this
photomontage I present the basic stereotypes of Finnish people, like blonde
women. Blonde women are a very usual stereotype because people around the world
think that people form the north of Europe are blonde. This stereotype is kind
of true due to the amount of blonde people in Finland, but not all of the
population is blonde. Another stereotype is the snow. People think that in
Finland there is always snow and polar bears. This stereotype is not true
because Finland is a cold place, but only in the winter is when the snow comes,
in summer there is no snow. Finnish people also have the stereotype of living
in small houses, this is true, but the reason is because they spend a lot less
than other houses.
Finland has
one of the best systems for education in the world. This system is very
efficient. Finland has 100% rate of literacy, this shows the level of compromise
that the Finnish government has with its people. The system make that education
is free for all. Education is free at all levels, including universities and polytechnics.
For entering polytechnics you have to give from 3 to 5 years of full time
study.
Environment
is another part of Finland. Environment is very important for people of
Finland, they pay a lot of taxes, around 46% of wage, and part of this
percentage goes to ecology. Finland promotes the industrial ecology, which is
the waste of factories is use as raw materials for other factories, and that
way to make new products.
As conclusion,
Finland has many stereotypes; some of them are presented in this photomontage.
Finland is the best country of the Baltic region due to its economy, its
education system, and the way they preserved the environment.
