Sanna is the Finnish-Swedish diminutive of Susanna — from the Hebrew *Shoshannah* (lily). **Sanna Marin (born 1985)** — became **Prime Minister of Finland in December 2019 at age 34, the youngest sitting state leader in the world at that time**. **Led a five-party coalition government — all five party leaders were women, four of them under 35** — through the COVID-19 pandemic and Finland's historic 2023 NATO accession. **Selected as one of Time's 100 Most Influential People (2023)**. Continued the Nordic tradition (Vigdís, Halonen, Marin) of female-led democratic leadership.
Subject of countless international profiles of new-generation political leadership.
Sanna reduces to seven — the number of Finland's young PM.
