| | | | 1380s: Encyclopedia II - History of Finland - Recent history At the beginning of the 1990s the Finnish economy fell into severe depression. The depression was caused by an overheated economy after liberalization in the 1980s, the disappearance of a major trade partner almost overnight when the Soviet Union dissolved and bad economic policy combined with an economic downturn in Western trade partners. The most severe consequence of depression was mass unemployment (17%). In the latter half of the 1990s the economy recovered strongly, led by the success of Nokia in the telecommunications market. However, unemployme ...
