For more information on Scandinavia or any one of its territories just double click on its name on this page

Scandinavia consists of Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish languages are pretty similar, although Finnish is nothing in comparrison. The Icelandic language is what the Vikings used to speak like, but some words in each of the Scandinavian languages have very similar words from the Icelandic language.
Scandinavia only consists of 3 countries Norway, Sweden and Denmark, you are probably thinking of Norden or the Nordic-contries which also contains Finland and Iceland. This is a common mistake, but its still important to remember there are only 3 countries in Scandinavia. They share history and speak Scandinavian, while Finland speaks finish which is not a part of the Scandinavian language branch, and the Icelandic language is a part of the branch it is to far away to be considered a Scandinavian country.
