    And yet few people would argue the same of Murmansk, mostly north of Helsinki. We really need to consider history here, as well. Specifically which side of the iron curtain they were on.

      I think you might be mixing different things here, because it’s fucked up shit

      Northern Europe: British isles, Scandinavia, Finland, Baltics

      Nordics: Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Greenland, Iceland, Faraoe islands

      Scandinavia: Sweden, Norway, Denmark

      Scandinavian peninsula: Sweden, Norway, North-western Finland

      Fennoscandia: Finland, Sweden, Norway, Murmansk oblast, parts of Karelia and Leningrad oblasts

      And there’s more stupid definitions for differently divided areas because fuck you
