Greenland is self-governing , but not independent.
(I'm Danish btw)

Otherwise I agree with your opinion of what Scandinavia is.

There have been talk about making the Faeroe Islands independent , but there are
many people from both the Faeroe Island and Denmark that like the arrangement we
have at the moment.

Iceland was once Danish too .. hey so was Sweden and Norway, parts of germany
(it was denmark then) and dusins of colonies around the world.

They were either given independece , sold or lost in wars. Some parts of denmark
that was lost still fell a certain closeness to Denmark , Sk�ne (given to Sweden
to end a long war, but with the agrement that it should keep it's danish
herritage , schools , churches and language .. The swed�sh king broke that
promise a few years later and began erasing all sign of it's danish herritage)
and Slesvig-Holstein ( Given the free democratic choice to decide what country
to belong too after the germans had occipied it for several years during war )

Thankfully the Swedes and the Germans don't wage war on us no more and we are
content with making jokes about them and buuuhhing them at soccermatches :)

That would be easy because nearly all share the same form and pattern .. only
the colours are different .. besides it have already been done.
