Finland 1939 vs. Ukraine 2022. Soviet forces invaded Finland on 30 Nov 1939, while claiming not to threaten Finnish sovereignty. The Soviet goal was to march into Helsinki & seize control. The attempt was stopped by fierce resistance, much like the march into Kyiv in 2022.

Oh the Finns are awesome warriors

Yeah, but we benefited from 80 years of peace, not thanks to Winter War, but because half of Leningrad's inhabitants died of hunger when stalin misused the humanitarian corridor angry Finns had still left for civilians. There hasn't been a "Leningrad moment" for russia in current conflict yet.

IIRC Finns had round about a tenth the casualties Russians had - so a bit better than the Ukrainians so far?
