Well, if Finland was to leave the Finnish economy would definitely get real bad but I'd like to think that the Finnish people would have more sense than to vote out if they were to have a referendum. Also, I doubt the leader of Finland would be as euro-sceptic to give the Finnish people a referendum. If they were to leave, the economy would not do well as unlike most other nordic countries, oil is not their strong point. The Åland Islands would probably want to rejoin Sweden. The only thing I could see happening is potentially Finnish fishermen voting out to stop the EU regulations on fishing, but I don't know if they have the same views as the English fishermen who voted overwhelmingly out.

Then there's the migrants... The Scandinavian countries have always done well to let refugees in to the country, especially Sweden, which I gather now has quite a lot of Nationalistic Pride and many people who would want to stop the migrants from entering or to deport many. I've never been to Finland but I have heard that they don't have the same amount of immigrants as Sweden, however, as most nationalistist/racists say, there's always too many refugees, therefore, it's possible to get some votes from that type of person.

Also there's a huge Swedish population in Sweden, and that could be problematic in an Out vote since, like we're seeing in Northern Ireland, there may have to be border controls (although if they get put in place, they'll probably be blown up by the dissident IRA within the first day). I doubt the Swedes in Finland would like a border control being put up as it would isolate Finland further. Unlike the UK, Finland is not an island (even though the UK isn't one either, but the UK has an island mentality) so borders could be a problem.

So I would say that a Fixit would not really affect the rest of the EU, but it would deeply affect Finland itself. Brexit wouldn't just affect the UK (although the UK has a rather strong economy), it would deeply affect Ireland, the republic, it would start the breakup of the "United" Kingdom, as we're already seeing in Scotland and people wanting a referendum of Irish Unification in Norn Iron. And then brexit would also affect the rest of the EU, trade between France, Germany, Spain. The money that goes into improving infastrcuture, that stops poverty and helps unemployment in Eastern Europe and Spain, Italy.
