Background
The following is taken from Wikipedia which is licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0. You can view the article it was taken from here.
Åland is an autonomous and demilitarised region of Finland since 1920 by a decision of the League of Nations. It is the smallest region of Finland by area and population, with a size of 1,580 km2, and a population of 30,129, constituting 0.51% of its land area and 0.54% of its population. Its only official language is Swedish and the capital city is Mariehamn.

Åland is situated in an archipelago, called the Åland Islands, at the entrance to the Gulf of Bothnia in the Baltic Sea belonging to Finland. It comprises Fasta Åland on which 90% of the population resides and about 6,500 skerries and islands to its east. Of Åland's thousands of islands, about 60–80 are inhabited. Fasta Åland is separated from the coast of Roslagen in Sweden by 38 kilometres (20+1⁄2 nautical miles) of open water to the west. In the east, the Åland archipelago is contiguous with the Finnish archipelago. Åland's only land border is located on the uninhabited skerry of Märket, which it shares with Sweden. From Mariehamn, there is a ferry distance of about 160 kilometres (85 nautical miles) to Turku, a coastal city of mainland Finland, and also to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. Åland's autonomous status means that those provincial powers normally exercised by representatives of the central Finnish government are largely exercised by its own government. The current demilitarised, neutral position of Åland dates back to the days of the Paris Peace Treaty after the Åland War in the 1850s. 2022 marked the 100th anniversary of the autonomous status. |

Strategy
Since you are a small nation with usually 
Russia forming the 
Soviet Union and 
Sweden not being a player, you can slowly build up your economy. You should start by making 1 electronic, steel and motor factory(Only buy the resources required when the factories are about to be completed. You should then sell your electronics to AI countries(1-5 units). After that you can save up money to get 1 fertiliser and civilian factory and get the resources needed(If you are inpatient, instead of saving up for money, you can invade city states for money). You can then build up troops a destroyer and a submarine (if you have enough political power, consider switching your ideology to nationalism and setting conscription to limited for more manpower and less military spending) and invade the rest of Europe that are AI(usually islands or micro states) and after all that you can either expand into Asia, the Americas or Africa and start the Alandic conquest and become a regional power.
Threats
- Finland wishing to re-integrate you.
- Another Nordic nation wanting to form the
Kalmar Union. - A European nation wanting to form the
European Union. - Sweden wanting to form the
Swedish Empire - Russia wanting to form the
Russian Empire
Trivia
- Just like a few other regions, the region's name is erroneously written as Aland in-game due to the lack of an accent. The correct name is Åland. (pronunciation: Oland.)
