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

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