The Scandinavian peninsula extends from the Euro-Asian continent towards the European continent, containing the countries Sweden and Norway. It is named from the [Scandinavian mountain range]? separating the two countries. Scandinavia is used as a common name for the the three countries Sweden, Norway, and Denmark and their languages Swedish?, Norwegian? and Danish.

Sometimes Iceland and Finland are also included in this group, but in that case is more correct to speak about the Nordic countries.
