Scandinavia is actually a collective term that includes Norway, Sweden and Denmark, some of the coldest nations in the world, while some experts will also include Finland on that list. The warmest temperature ever recorded in Scandinavia is 38.0 °C (100.4 F) in Målilla (Sweden). The coldest temperature ever recorded is −52.6 °C (-62 F) in Vuoggatjålme (Sweden). These cold climates make for dense population centers and huge areas of uninhabited space, where nature still holds strong, and the wind blows without stop. There you can feel the bones of the world, as you stand on the rocks, breath in icy cold air, and stare at the empty miles of natural wonder. |
