continent- Antarctica
this name can be applied to any country on or near the arctic circle where the sun remains near visible at local midnight. A quarter of Finlands territory is located north of the Arctic circle and they 'enjoy' 73 days when the sun does not set during summer. Other countries are northern Canada, Alaska, Greenland, Norway, Sweden and Russia. At North Cape, Norway 'daylight' extends from 14th May until 29th July. On the Svalbarg archipelago, further north, daylight extends from 20th April to 22nd August
The midnight sun refers to areas of the arctic region that receive 24 hours of sunlight/night for months at a time. Though no country is really known as the midnight sun, areas of the US, Canada, Russia, Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark experience such.
Land of the Midnight Sun refers to northern regions in the world like Canada or Alaska, as well as Russia and Norway
Portions of many countries above the Arctic Circle. Includes Norway, Sweden, Russia, Alaska, Northern Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Lapland, etc.

Pretty much all inhabited countries north of the Arctic circle lays claim to the name "land of the midnight sun".

This is because of the tilt to the Earth's axis, the sun never drops below the horizon for the duration of the summer.
