:: I reverted your most recent edit, because at least one part of it was factually incorrect.  Finnish is not solely related to Hungarian.  I am a Scandinavian Studies minor at UC Berkeley -- our working definition (and the working definition used in most of academia, including from my experience people out of the University of Lund) has Scandinavia referring to Norway/Sweden/Denmark or N/S/D+F, and "Nordic Countries" used to refer to all five, although Scandinavia certainly can (and is frequently used to) refer to all five.  Obviously, if you restrict it to mean the actual Scandinavian peninsula (which I have seen a number of definitions do,) only Norway and Sweden are included.

::: Ok, I can understand that.  I think the difference might be a popular vs. an academic view here.  I yield to your experience.  [[User:ArnoldFriend|ArnoldFriend]] 23:54, 2 November 2008 (EST)
