	I gave up after finding out that you don't accept 'Rasmussen' for 'Lars Løkke Rasmussen' and 'Arhus' for 'Århus'...

	I'll fix Rasmussen. Aarhus works for Århus.

	The same prob is with "Queen Margrethe II". It won't accept queen margrethe 2 and it won't accept h.c. andersen (or hc andersen). But a good quiz though

	Fixed your problems :) This is my first stab at making a quiz.

	As for the notion of "Scandinavia", please note that only Norway and Sweden are geographically part of Scandinavia. Culturally you might also include Denmark (and historically perhaps even Finland). But Iceland is definitely not part of it. And the Faroe Islands shouldn't be mentioned separately, as they belong to Denmark.

	You shouldn't say "bordering ocean" several times when in fact all of them are seas.

	@Linux: Thanks, I fixed that issue. @Marsco: Although the Faroe Islands are independent from Denmark in most respects I'll grant you that it may confuse so I removed it. I live in Denmark and danes very much consider themselves part of Scandinavia as do the other scandinavian countries. There are great cultural and historical ties between Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark and Iceland and the term "Scandinavia" goes beyond the geography of the Scandinavian peninsula. It is not uncommon to see Iceland linked to the other four countries, although it's not geographically correct.

	Greenland?

	gnimmelf666:	Mar 25th, 2010 at 11:02 GMT		1 point
	Left Greenland out for the same reasons as Faroe Islands.

	Great Quiz ! just too bad it doesn't accept all danish answers also, had to look up how to spell beech :)

	So Sjællands Odde and Djursland are not peninsulae? Iceland and Finland are not parts of Scandinavia. But these three countries are together called the Nordic Countries. Faeroes are not independent. They belong to Denmark, they are a part of the Danish monarchy, but they are not a part of Denmark. Therefore they should not be included in this quiz but don't tell anyone they are independent. When was H.C. Andersen declared national poet?

	if you're danish, shouldn't you accept kobenhavn for capital city? and perhaps you shouldn't make us have to type sea after north, etc.

	There is a difference between Scandinavia and the Nordic countries. Scandinavia is only Sweden, Norway and Denmark.

	Shouldn't sjælland, lars løkke be accepted answers? and you should include different ways to write Queen Margrethe II, so it could be Margrethe the second and change II to 2 aswell. Regarding the seas these are the seas that surrounds denmark: Baltic Sea / Kattegat / Øresund / Great Belt / North Sea / Little Belt / Limfjord / Wadden Sea. just to mention most of them. to include Greenland and faroe islands you could write; autonomous region within the Kingdom of Denmark?

	"The Scandinavian Peninsula" is only Norway and Sweden, "Scandinavia" as a region is Denmark, Norway and Sweden, "The Nordic Countries" is Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland, "Balto-Scandia" is Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, and "Northern Europe" is Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, UK and Ireland.

	Actually, i just found out that most of Northern Finland is on the Scandinavian Peninsula...

	british:	Jun 12th, 2011 at 19:27 GMT		-1 points
	Scandinavia is Iceland Norway Sweden Finland and Denmark....just accept the names of the seas without having to type sea, the largest island is greenland...

	On the 15. September 2011 there was an election here in Denmark and we got a new prime minister, the first female danish prime minister ever. Her name is Helle Thorning Smith. Might want to chance that now:)

	Think you should accept Mrs Kinnock as the answer to the prime minister question :)

	As others have said, Iceland and Finland are Nordic countries, but not Scandinavian. The Scandinavian Peninsula containing Norway, Sweden and northern Finland was named AFTER Scandinavia - i.e. the concept of Scandinavia already existed. Scandinavia is a cultural term not a geographical one, and as such, it is only the three countries of Norway, Sweden and Denmark who it applies to. Try talking to a Finn in Danish and see how far you get. Conversely, talk to a Swede in Danish, and you'll get along swimmingly! I'd dump the "Climate" question too, and I think "Government" is a bit vague. On the other hand, it seems weird for there to be absolutely no mention of Greenland and the Faroes. Maybe include those in a couple of "Autonomous country" questions?
