This article is from the Nordic countries FAQ, by Antti Lahelma and Johan Olofsson, with numerous contributions by others.
This is the so called Frequently Answered Questions (FAQ) file for the
Usenet newsgroup soc .culture .nordic. Its purpose is to introduce new
readers to the group, provide some general information about the
Nordic countries (Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and Iceland) and to
cover some of the topics frequently discussed in the group.
It is organized in seven parts, this introduction and then one part
each covering Norden in general, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and
Sweden. Since the texts have grown rather extensive, these parts are
posted to the news group, and to the soc.answers and news.answers
groups, with rather long intervals. Then there are appendices. The
appendices will be posted even less often, if at all.
