From the 13th century Finland was part of the Swedish sphere of influence for several centuries, and actually part of the Swedish Realm from the 14th century. Finns fought in many a Swedish army, often against Russia. In 1809, after Sweden had lost the war with Russia, Finland was ceded to Russia and became an autonomous Grand Duchy within Tsarist Russia, its Grand duke being the Tsar himself.
