Scandinavia and Nordic are terms used to describe the cultural and geographic region of Northern Europe. The Scandinavian Peninsula includes the kingdoms of Norway and Sweden with a small portion of the Republic of Finland. The Kingdom of Denmark, the southernmost Nordic country, is located on the Jutland Peninsula. The Faroe Islands, a territory of Denmark, and Iceland, are considered part of Scandinavia.
