Always thought scandinavia not including finland is a bit bullshit tbh.

Geographically, it makes at least as much sense as Denmark being included.
And then their shared history, being part of sweden for centuries and swedish being a recognised language a minority of Finns still speak as their first language.

edit: accidentally wrote "Swedes" instead of "Finns"

It's just due to race science because the finns are from a different ethno-linguistic group. They call all of the peninsula plus iceland and denmark the nordic countries or nordics, which doesn't make sense either because the finns aren't nords but it would be rude to leave them out. And nobody even cares about estonia aka baby finland

minority language. including finland in scandinavia is basically like including hungary in germany.

Honestly the most striking similarity is how similar streets, traffic signs and alot of architecture is between Finland and Sweden. Drop me in a random finnish town and make me illiterate and i wouldnt feel out of place until i heard people speak. In Denmark or Norway i can immediately tell im in another country by looking at those things.

So you think because a people were subjugated by Yakubian devils they should be included in the grouping of their former masters? Ireland is part of Britain?

Based on your disgusting answers I think sweden is the worst country in europe.

Yeah don't buy the "we are the Grimaldi" line, they are agnastic Polignac, minor branch of the house of the prime minister of Charles X, the king of France that made Haiti paid billions for their freedom.
