Scandinavia, strictly, is the three Scandinavian kingdoms: Denmark, Norway and Sweden, the three counted here. Finland and Iceland, which with them make up the Nordic countries, are coloured on the map and listed after the three, as on our Scandinavia map worksheets. Greenland and the Faroe Islands, parts of the Kingdom of Denmark, are shown in grey.
