At the end of his presentation he had mentioned Scandinavia and had Norway and Sweden covered in the American flag.
I always thought that Finland was a part of Scandinavia as well.
Was leaving it out of the pic a part of his humor, or is it really not considered a part of Scandinavia?
According to Wikipedia, Scandinavia is composed of Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
" The term Scandinavia in local usage covers the three kingdoms of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, but in English usage, it also sometimes refers to the Scandinavian Peninsula or to the broader region which includes Finland and Iceland.[1]"

No, not a part of Scandinavia. Ethnically Fins are related to Estonians, Hungarians and Turks...
Icelanders are related to Scandinavians but Iceland is not a part of Scandinavia the land...
American flag over Scandinavia as in the American dream is in Scandinavia not in USA...
And many to Russians: Finland was part of the Russian empire until declaring itself independent after the Russian Revolution in 1917.
More like oherewise.Many Russians related to Finnish and Swedish folks.Karelia is still Russian.Like myself, i have the Polish roots , i`m a second generation Russian only.Grand grand farther was departed from Poland by coms before the revolution.
Because the range of rich and poor is narrower and there are fewer advantages for the rich: for example good universities are prohibitevly expensive for the poor but not for the rich in the US.
