On December 10th of 2019, Finland got a new Prime Minister, Sanna Marin. She’s not just the Prime Minister, but also a feminist who is leading a new coalition government of 5 women. Together, they’ve effectively dealt with world crises and also drafted an inspiring Equality Program that states everyone has the right to determine their own gender identity.

The Youngest Prime Minister of Finland

Sanna Marin, who is 34-years-old, has been in office for almost an entire year as Finland’s youngest prime minister. She’s the head of a coalition government that consists of 5 women. She states that she represents a younger generation and that she often welcomes the attention of international media as it’s an opportunity to show the world who the Finnish people are.

It’s believed that feminism comes with age in Finland. Back in 1906, Finland was the first country in the world to allow full voting and parliamentary rights to women. Other Western nations didn’t reach this step until after World War I. Just a year later, 19 women were elected into parliament. In 2000, Finland had its first female president, Tarja Halonen, along with its first female prime minister, Anneli Jaatteenmaki, in 2003.

In 2019, Sanna Marin was elected to take over Antti Rinne’s place as prime minister after much criticism regarding the way he handled a postal strike in the country. This made Marin the youngest leader of the country.

Quickly Springing into Action

Shortly after she arrived in office as PM, Marin had to make important decisions regarding global crises. Finland didn’t hesitate to restrict movements within the country, but they also prompted the Emergency Powers Act, which was last used in World War II to give power to the government to regulate wages and also require compulsory manpower placement to procure labor.

This strategy helped place Finland alongside Taiwan, Germany, and New Zealand in terms of handling the crisis, which leads to thoughts of females doing the job better.

One of the things that makes the life of a celebrity so alluring is the idea that you can use your newfound wealth to build the house of your dreams. Though some celebs are happy flying under the radar, many have put massive amounts of money into lavish homes. Here are some of the most insane.

With a net worth of more than $330 million to his name, delving in real estate from time to time is no big deal for Garth Brooks. A few years ago, the country singer made a promise to wife Trisha Yearwood to move to Nashville. Brooks ended up putting his $3.5 million Oklahoma home up for sale. Truth be told, they were pretty sad to say goodbye to it, as the house had tons of space, with two kitchens, a huge garage, and even a gym.

Johnny Depp may have been a household name long before he made his debut in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, but it became clear just how much island life suited him.

Salma Hayek is definitely financially stable ever since tying the knot with French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault.

Amazingly, the actress is planning on doubling the home in size. Currently, her home already has a staggering nine bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, and a pool. The estate is located in one of the most exclusive areas in the whole of Bel-Air.

Dennis Rodman is undoubtedly best known for his close North Korean ties and larger than life appearance. Make no mistake about it though, the retired basketball player struggles to stay in one place.

However, he went on to sell the acre-long estate for $1.1 million and as of 2019, it’s unclear where exactly he is located.

This beautiful New England seaside mansion is nothing short of magnificent, and we would expect nothing less from the court queen herself.

This massive house is located on a cliff and boasts enough room for the whole family to come and visit.

Look, when you’re the richest man in your country, you probably shouldn’t feel bad for showing off your wealth.

It even has its own underground parking deck, a waterfall, three helicopter pads, and several swimming pools. Of course, Mukesh also needs an army to maintain the place.

He meticulously made sure that the house looked just like the home from the movie.

Minnie Driver is a British actress who is known in homes all around the world. However, when it came to styling and modeling her own home, she decided to add her own personal touches to the mix. Her $2.5 million home is both tasteful, wonderfully humble, and brilliantly eccentric! We love celebs who keep it real and Minnie has done just this. Her home feels cozy and warm and doesn’t look so jarringly avant-garde that it feels like you’re living in a music video 24/7.
