I love it when you guys tell me your weird speculations about the “Scandinavia and the World” universe.

Two that seem very common are:

America and Australia are England’s children. This speculation is obviously based on history, and it gives me all kinds of cute mental images.

Sweden is in love with Denmark but won’t admit it because 1) he is in the closet and 2) it’s an insult to his own intelligence to fall in love with someone as stupid and perverse as Denmark. This one has nothing to do with history, but seem to be purely based on the characters themselves.

And I was told a rather funny one the other day: Sister Sweden and Finland are the parents of Russia, because Swedish Vikings founded the Russian population we know today. What lovely parents they must have been. Explains a lot of Russia’s behavior through the times.

Anyway, thank you for thinking out loud about stuff like this. It amuses me greatly.
