Merry Christmas
All the Nordic countries claim that Santa lives within their borders (Sorry that I forgot you, Iceland).
Ever since I was a kid I liked the idea of there being more than one Santa, and I imagined them distributing the work between them and visiting each other in the summer. So no matter where a country believe Santa to live, I think they’re right.

It's funny how everyone makes such a big deal of this. In Finland Santa originally came from Saint Nicholas who helped people. The story I know of him is that he helped out two girls from a poor family which tried desperately to find work and failed. They almost ended up working as-- well.. prostitutes but Saint Nicholas helped them out. There's also a story that Saint Nicholas was an orphan who lived in different families and later when he was an adult he brought presents to his friends' kids he used to live with. There's is a movie which tells his story but it's pretty sad. Personally I respect everyone's point of view but it's just silly to argue about it.
