I'm sure that she made it.

Karjala or Carelia/Karelia is a part of Finland: I added couple of links where you can read something in english if you are interested what is Carelia and their banner.

I never knew that Carelia was based off that. That's extremely interesting. And after seeing that, yes I believe her grandma owned it too.

Perhaps King Wintermute liked a lot of that beer or had relatives from Carelia.

I was honoured to play with king Wintermute. He was a good King and friend.

To be honest, I've always wondered if the Cagilan Empire was based on some sort of group of finnish gamers due to the fact that the Cagilan heraldry is the finnish national herald, Tara's is the one the planned "Finnish Kingdom" would have had, and Carelia's is what has been said it is. Oh and I think Coria has the lion too, but obviously that fits the whole "Empire" thing.

But yeah, the beer Karjala (Carelia) is awful, and only those who think Carlsberg is the best beer in the world should ever drink it.

Doesn't Russia have Karelia now? Or parts of it, at least....

CE's founding players were mostly finnish.

As I understand it, Atamara is still half-dominated by Finnish players. There are some very long-time players who are Finns. I may be mistaken, but I believe there's at least two rulers on AT right now who are Finns and have been around practically forever.

Sordnaz is Finnish, right? And the other would be Ottar? Am I right?

My other guess would be KK.

Or captain.

Those are the 4 long-time rulers.

As far as i know, current rulers at AT who are finns are Ottar and KK.

There was time at early Atamara when Eston, Carelia, CE, Darka and Tara had finnish rulers... but thats a long story why it was so... and no, there was no clanning or that kind of poop... We were just a bit ahead on strategic planning and activity and communication back then :)
