For one, it's usually considered to be the happiest with each of its respective countries often topping the global happiness list. But also, there's not that many Scandinavians relative to its size! In fact, the entire region has less than 1/4th the population of Germany. What's even more interesting is that, within Scandinavia, Sweden has about twice the population as its three siblings: Denmark, Finland, and Norway. So how did Sweden grow so much larger if it shares pretty much the same geographic region? In this video, we'll cover the incredible geography of Scandinavia and the surprising differences as you traverse each country, the history of how these four countries became independent and how they have been linked throughout time, and, finally, how Sweden managed to grow so much larger in population. -- Stock footage and music acquired from www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.
