Southwest Finland

Southwest Finland, also known in English as Finland Proper〔The regional council of the region uses the name "Southwest Finland". Despite this, the Language Planning Department of Finland recommends the name "Varsinais-Suomi" as suggested in the statement by the Interior Ministry of Finland in 1988. The Institute for Languages of Finland (lists the official English name as "Varsinais-Suomi" ).〕 ((フィンランド語:Varsinais-Suomi), (スウェーデン語:Egentliga Finland)) is the bilingual region in south-western Finland that borders the regions of Satakunta, Tavastia Proper, Åland and Uusimaa. Its capital and biggest city is Turku with 182,000 inhabitants, which was also the capital of Finland from its establishment around the 13th century until 1812.
The area comprising the southwest is largely the same as the historical province of Finland Proper, so named because it is the original home of the tribe known as the Finns. 5.7% of population of the region speaks Swedish natively.
==Origin of the name==
The name of Finland Proper has a historial function. In historic times, in the area of the present southern Finland lived three tribes, which were the Finns, the Tavastians and the Karelians. The southwestern part of the country, the province where the Finns lived, was called simply Finland (Finnish: ''Suomi''). In the 17th century the name began to be used to refer to the whole land and a specified name for the lesser Finland was required. The first notes ''Fennigia specialiter dicta'' and ''Fennigia presse dicta'' were recorded in Latin in the 1650s and the Swedish ''Finland för sig sielft'' and ''Egenteliga Finland'' later in the 18th century the modern form ''Egentliga Finland'' being in official use at the end of the century. The Finnish term ''Varsinais-Suomi'' became established only around the 1850s.
