Karelian Brotherhood
Karjalan veljeskunta (Karelian Brotherhood) was an organization founded in 1907 as a Russian Orthodox society, whose goal was to russify Karelias orthodox population.[1] It had close ties to Russian nationalists in the State Duma.[2]
The chief of the organization was bishop (Kyprianos).[3] Karjalan veljeskunta was dissolved when Finland obtained its independence in 1917.
