I know you’re waiting for Romans and we have them, kind of! Finland was at best in the Roman Empires periphery, but most likely in Romans margins. Finland of course never was a province of Roman Empire, but we have a slice in the coast, that did inhabit people with their cultural influence at least. Bit more about ceramics too, since it is the last time they play bigger role in our Story. Vikings have to wait their turn for bit more.
