Why does Scandinavia have such a cold climate?

Scandinavia's cold climate is mainly due to its high latitude, which results in less direct sunlight and colder temperatures. The region is also influenced by the North Atlantic Current, which brings cold water from the Arctic and contributes to its climate. Additionally, the presence of large bodies of water surrounding Scandinavia further exacerbates its cold weather conditions.

Why does the sun shine for 24 hours on 21 June in the Arctic Circle?

It is due to the Earth's incline which I think is 24.5 degrees. As the Earth orbits around the Sun, different locations of our planet receive more sunlight, that is why we have seasons. On June 21st, It is the summer solstice, so the Northern Hemisphere receives more sunlight thus it is summer. The Arctic Circle is leaning towards the sun 24 hours so the sun is always present in the horizon. See related link.
