Monarchy of Finland

The nation of Finland has never been an independent sovereign monarchy: No attempt to establish a fully fledged Finnish monarchy has been successful. When it finally became established as a modern independent nation-state, it was – despite a very brief flirtation with monarchy – in the form of a republic.

The only royal persons who are buried in Finland is the wife of King Eric XIV of Sweden, Queen Karin Månsdotter and her daughter Sigrid of Sweden (1566–1633).[1]
