Similar story here in Finland. Officially the country is 100 years old, but of course people have been living here for much longer than that. Sadly there is little evidence of them though, because they built their houses from wood. By contrast the city I grew up in, York, had stone walls that are ~2000 years old. The next city I lived, Edinburgh, has some proper-old buildings too. e.g. The Royal mile contains buildings from the 12th century, and I regularly used to drink in pubs that were 600-800 years old. In short "old" is relative.
