Finland has two official languages, Finnish and Swedish. Schoolchildren start learning English at grade 3, and Swedish at grade 7. Swedish is widely hated and outright despised, while people just Generally learn English and consider it a part of the education. Perhaps the difference is that there is so much English culture everywhere that you can't avoid it, while if you are not from near the Swedish-speaking areas, you will never actually use the language.
