How's your geography?

Level 4 has been my best, which is pretty good...for me. World traveler and foreign enthusiast I am not.

Huh? There's only one country east of Finland - Russia. If you're talking about the Baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia), they're a) south of Finland and b) a very long way south of the Arctic circle.

Yes, but that's not nearly what we're talking about. The game points out cities and (supposedly) nations north of Russia and east of Finland. That's what I meant when I said "north of Russia and east of Finland."

Ah, I've found a reference. The game refers to Svalbard as it refers to other nations, even though Svalbard is a possession of Norway. IIRC, it also referred to Novaya Zemlya the same way, even though it is part of Russia. Svalbard is actually north-northeast of Finland, but there's probably just a trick of the projection used in the game.
