Finland is a Nordic country, isn’t it? 🤔
BurritoflyEffect t1_j9yak4b wrote
Yes, but most people don’t seem to care to distinguish the two.

It is, bud I guess some scandic countries probably have Finnish people who have moved there.

Finns are kind of the CappaDonna to our Wu Tang Clan. Maybe not a full member, but pretty damn tight

According to Wikipedia it’s sometimes considered Scandinavian.
grandBBQninja t1_j9ycrwu wrote
Yes it is but that’s plain wrong. Scandinavia consists of Sweden, Norway and Denmark (which is often left out). If you want to refer to the area that consists of Scandinavia, Finland and parts of Russia, the correct term is Fennoscandia.

I will remember this for the next 50 years and maybe use it once.
Edit: I will be cursing you when I forget my dog's face but remember fucking "Fennoscandia".

“According to Wikipedia”
Yeah, there’s your problem, relying on Wikipedia for accurate info.

But Finland isnt even in scandinavia. Scandinavia is only Denmark, Sweden and Norway

And Bergen
Mick7s t1_ja21x8x wrote
Bergen is in Norway right?
broitsme420 t1_ja27xp7 wrote
Yes, but people from Bergen LOVE to point out where they're from. Think of Bergen as Norways Texas, except its always raining there.

Makes sense
sintakks t1_ja29xmr wrote
There are enough Swedes there to qualify for Scandinavia in my book. And enough Uralic speakers in Norway and Sweden.

Why is it tough to pull a prank on Scandinavians?

Finland is not even a Scandinavian country.
Let me guess..........You're American?
PunkNerd2007 OP t1_ja0jbh9 wrote
No but I really thought it was because of things like the Scandinavian cross and stuff like that
lampaansyoja t1_ja2mepk wrote
Cross is typical for Nordic countries which include also Iceland which isn't part of scandinavia.
Scandinavia is the mountain range between Sweden and Norway and only countries connected to that mountain range are called Scandinavian.

They Scan de Navy
EnumeratedWalrus t1_ja0q1q2 wrote
Their naval ships also have bar codes on them to verify whenever they dock, so whenever the sailors come home their country can scan the navy in.
