Kareloland (Russian: Карелоземля Karelozemlya, Finnish: Karelonmaa) was a country in north-east Europe that existed from 1917 to 2009.

History[]

Kareloland came into existence in 1917 when Finland declared independence from the Russian Empire during the First World War and spent its first 20 years as the federal state. Kareloland was then invaded by the Axis powers during the Second World War but it was saved by the Soviet Union and turned Kareloland into the communist state. The five republics that made Kareloland are Kostomak SR, Murmansk SR, Ladoga SR, Onega SR and Paanayari SR.

After the financial crisis of the 1980s and fall of communism in Eastern Europe, its states declared independence from Kareloland, triggering the civil war in 1991, which lasted until 2009, when the union agreed to peacefully broke up when Kostomak, Murmansk, Ladoga, Onega and Paanayari became independent states, although Murmansk was recognized as the independent state by some members of the UN in 1996 and Ladoga and Onega in 2007 respectively.
