valtionalaisia

Valtionalaisia is a Finnish lexical form derived from valtio (state) and the suffix -lainen (indicating belonging or relation). As a word form, valtionalaisia appears as the plural partitive or plural accusative of valtionalainen and is used to describe people, institutions or objects that are in some way subject to, belonging to, or associated with the state.

The term is not the standard modern word for citizens; kansalaiset is the common Finnish term for citizens and kansalaisuus for citizenship. Valtionalainen/valtionalaisia is more often used adjectivally or in compound expressions to denote state affiliation, such as valtionalaisia palveluja (state services) or valtionalaisia laitoksia (state institutions). It can also appear in historical, legal or stylistic contexts where emphasis is placed on the relationship to the state rather than on legal citizenship status.

Because the element -lainen can create both nouns and adjectives, the form valtionalaisia may occur in various grammatical roles. Usage frequency is lower than alternatives like valtion omistama (state-owned) or julkinen (public). In translations, older documents, or specialized discourse the term may be encountered; readers should assess context to determine whether it refers to citizenship, ownership, administration, or broader state affiliation.
