Yup, what is commonly known as the Terijoki Government or Kuusinen's Government in Finland, was just a puppet-government that failed rather spectacularly. Same goes for it's army, which was to be 80,000 strong and consist of Finnish deserters. It reached a strength of about 23,000, with over half being non-Finns.
