Just kidding. Now seriously, it would be too long to tell. I think any educated person knows that Finland has given many notable figures to the Western Culture, and everybody should be able to mention at least a few important names in Music (e.g. Jean Sibelius), Literature (Mika Waltari), Cinema (Aki Kaurismäki), Architecture and Design (yes, Alvar Aalto, now seriously), etc...

I know the country has one of the highest social educational levels in the World, a strong economy, it adopted the euro currency (contrary to Sweden and Denmark), etc...
