  3. Hype for the Future 87E: Finland, Sweden, Norway

    Introduction The three northernmost countries associated with Europe west of Russia may each contain surface-level similarities; however, the differences provide a significantly greater contrast than would normally be expected.

  4. Hype for the Future 87B: The Isolated Islands of Europe

    Introduction The North Sea is home to the Orkney, Shetland, and Faroe Island territories. Orkney and Shetland are today part of Scotland, while the Faroe Islands are today part of Denmark.

  8. Hype for the Future 86J: Icelandic Minnesotans

    Overview While Icelandic Minnesotans do not represent a significant share of the Scandinavian or otherwise Nordic population of the modern State of Minnesota, the insular North Atlantic community is highly representative of the cultural divide that has indirectly influenced the culture in the modern Upper Midwest of the United States. Though Minnesota is largely associated with the eastern neighbors of Iceland, particularly Norway and Denmark, Iceland is also of cultural significance in the […]

  10. Hype for the Future 82C: Viking Sagas

    Introduction Though very different from modern songs, the sagas associated with Viking culture, particularly expanding throughout the North Atlantic Ocean, are often identified through the cultural and linguistic distinctions compared to other types of material. Many traditional sagas of the Vikings are associated with Iceland or the Faroe Islands; however, the Viking settlements had initially been associated with the Scandinavian mainland, particularly in much of modern Norway.

  18. Hype for the Future 73I: The Nordic Cross in Scotland

Norse Heritage While not all of Scotland is […]

  24. If anoyone had any doubts of the #Finnish or #nordicCountries internet cable infrastructure being intenationally destroyed or accidentally getting broken, I think this is the day when there is no questions unaswered.

  25. Why northern #Europe is so #indebted - #TheLoop

    "If we consider #ConsumerCredit, the #welfare-#debt theory makes sense again. While consumer credit is more the exception than the norm in Europe, and almost absent in the #NordicCountries, it is common in #Anglo-liberal countries (#UK, #US and #Canada) where it is used by families as a substitute for poor #welfare provision."
