World Geography

Scandinavian countries like Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland are all located in northwestern Europe. Scandinavian countries have unique physical geography because of volcanoes and glaciers.

Some of the unique features include: the Norwegian Fjords (which is a long, narrow, deep inlet of the sea between high cliffs.), the Scandinavian Mountains, which rise about 8,000 feet, and the archipelagos of Sweden and Norway.

They are many different types of glaciers, and these glaciers are responsible for creating fjords and valleys. Iceland has over 100 volcanoes and there are thousands more in northwestern Europe. Most civilians harness the volcano’s power in geothermal plants. Volcanoes also make new land in Iceland and Finland.
