Denmark, Norway, and Sweden collectively and sometimes Finland, Iceland, and the Faeroe Islands.

The boldfaced part was added by Neel.arunabh on 3 May 2022 and removed by Getsnoopy on 26 November 2022 with the edit summary “Scandinavia never includes Finland, Iceland, and Faroe Islands (which, if included, are Nordic countries).” J3133 (talk) 14:08, 24 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

I dunno. I think those authors just screwed up their geography when writing the books. Wonderfool69 (talk) 20:55, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
The 3 citations that @J3133 added clearly show that Scandinavia is sometimes used to refer to the three additional countries and it's very easy to find other citations if necessary by simply searching for 'Scandinavia Finland', 'Scandinavia Iceland' and 'Scandinavia Faroe Islands' on Google Books, so RFV passed. --Overlordnat1 (talk) 23:40, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
