    Extractions: Situated between the 60th and 70th latitudes, Finland is the fifth largest country in Europe in terms of area; its median latitude makes it the northernmost country in the world, on a par with Iceland. The total area is 338,144 square kilometers (maximum length 1,160 km, maximum width 540 km). There are 188,000 lakes and 30,000 islands dotting its coastline of 1,100 kilometers (625 miles). Finland is bound in the southwest by the Baltic Sea, in the west by the Golf of Bothnia and in the south by the Gulf of Finland. To the west lies Sweden, to the north Norway, and to the east Russia, making Finland the easternmost of the Scandinavian countries. Most of the country is lowland, the average height above the sea level being less than 150 meters (500 feet). Of the total land area, over 70 per cent is covered by forest. From the last weekend in September till the last weekend in March, Finland has Eastern European Time which is two hours ahead of Universal Time Coordinated (UTC = Greenwich Mean Time). Daylight saving time is used in Finland from the last Sunday in March till the last Sunday in September. Contrary to some popular stereotypes, Finland is not frigid wasteland. Finland is kept unexpectedly warm through a combination of environmental factors. The Baltic Sea, the system of inland waterways and the Gulf stream all serve to keep Finland warmer than its location might suggest. However, owing to the humid atmosphere, the weather in Helsinki feels colder most of the time than the temperature might suggest. In the warmest summer months the long-term average in southern Finland is between +14C and +18C (57 and 64 degrees Fahrenheit) and in February about -6 C (20 degrees Fahrenheit). In summer time the temperature might variate between +10 and +27 degrees C and in winter time between -27 and +5 degrees C.

Although other countries have points extending farther north, virtually all of Finland is north of 60 degrees north latitude; nearly a quarter of the land area and fully one-third of the latitudinal extent of the country lie north of the Arctic Circle. In area, Finland has 304,623 square kilometers of land and 33,522 square kilometers of inland water, a total of 338,145 square kilometers.

There are approximately 1,107 kilometers of coastline on the Gulf of Finland (south), the Baltic Sea (southwest), and the Gulf of Bothnia (west). The rugged coastline is deeply indented with bays and inlets. The offshore region is studded with islands. The most predominant influences on Finland's geography were the continental glaciers that scoured and gouged the country's surface. When the glaciers receded about 10,000 years ago, they left behind them moraines, drumlins, and eskers. Other indications of their presence are the thousands of lakes they helped to form in the southern part of the country. The force of the moving ice sheets gouged the lake beds, and meltwaters helped to fill them. The recession of the glaciers is so recent (in geologic terms) that modern-day drainage patterns are immature and poorly established. The direction of glacial advance and recession set the alignment of the lakes and streams in a general northeast to southwest lineation. The two Salpausselka Ridges, which run parallel to each other about twenty-five kilometers apart, are the terminal moraines. At their greatest height they reach an elevation of about 200 meters, the highest point in southern Finland.
