- I guess you're trying to say that the forrest-burning was banned because it
- was the finns who burned the forrests, not because forrest-burning itself
- isn't a very clever idea? What happened when they didn't obey? To be
- perfectly honest, I don't know, but a fair guess is that breaking a law
- leads to some kind of punishment. I also guess it did then. I also guess
- any Swede burning forrests would've received the same kind of punishment.
- I'm prefectly confident it wasn't being a finn that was banned through
- a law about forrest burning. It was much simpler. It was actually forrest
- burning that was banned.
