What countries are tundras?

A tundra is a region that is cold year round and has very little few plants. Tundras usually have permafrost, a layer of soil that is frozen year round, but they don't necessarily have to in order to be considered a tundra. Tundras can be classified as Arctic, Antarctic, or Alpine. Arctic tundra regions can be found in northern areas of Canada, Russia, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. Antarctic tundras are located on the continent of Antarctica or the islands nearby, such as the South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, which are just off the coast of South America. Alpine tundras are areas that are so high in altitude that trees cannot grow there. The cold temperatures and lack of plant life (aside from moss and lichens), make these regions tundras. These tundras are the only kind that don't have permafrost. They can be found in mountainous regions all over the world.
