	Fennoman
		Although the notion of Fennomans has hardly been used by anyone after the generation of Paasikivi (born 1870), their ideas have, partly in synthesis with the legacy of the Svecomans, since dominated the Finns' understanding of their bi-lingual nation.
		Some of the Fennomans originally Swedish-speaking learned Finnish, and made a point of using it both in the society and at home, giving their children what they missed themselves: the Finnish mother tongue.
		The term 'fennoman' is today self-proclaimedly used by certain people opposing the Swedish language in Finland in all its forms, especially as a mandatory school subject.

		Discordant history views between Fennomans and Svecomans are today reflected by differences between Finnish and Swedish understandings of the shared history, but also between academic historians and popular perceptions, the latter being more influenced by the views of prolific 19th century leaders.
		Debaters representing a Fennoman point of view sometimes stress that Latin, and not Swedish, was the language of academia, and until the Protestant Reformation was also often the language of state administration; hence the notion of Swedish dominance is misleading for the 14th-15th centuries, and also to some degree for the 16th-17th centuries.
