Finland. Artist/engraver/cartographer: John Bartholomew . Provenance: "The Citizen's Atlas of the World"; by John Bartholomew; Published by John Bartholomew & Son limited, Edinburgh; 10th Edition. Type: Vintage colour map; Scale 1:4,000,000. The land border between Finland and the USSR was demarcated in the Treaty of Paris (1947) following the Continuation War (1941–44), in which Finnish Karelia and Petsamo were ceded to the Soviet Union. The naval border was established in 1940 and more accurately defined in 1965. The border is uncontroversial and clearly defined in law. Both states verified the inviolability of borders and territorial integrity in the first Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe in 1975. An earlier demarcation was the Treaty of Tartu in 1920.
