That would result in the traditional wars between the nations in order to be able to decide wich King (or Queen) would get the throne. All the older wars happened because the Danes didn't want a Swedish King, the Swedes didn't want a Danish King etc! The Kalmar Union were a result of the ending of the Viking Age, with Denmark conquering Swedish areas with the help of the Holy Roman Empire.

Awesome idea, and something I myself as a swedish-speaking Finn would love! The capital should definitely be divided though. Parliament in Stockholm (central location and largest city), the government should sit in Copenhagen (closest to europe), military leadership should be in Helsinki (military history and only major land border) and the supreme court should be in Oslo. That way, all countries get something valuable. Unfortunately for us Finns, we'd have to accept that the currency would become Nordic Crowns.

As a Swede, I would love for this to happen. Many Swedes seem to feel the same as well, and would rather be apart of a Nordic union than the EU. There would be quite a few bureaucratic obstacles to overcome, and I think it'd be best set up as a republic with states with a fairly high independence, and a federal organization for defence and similarly important things. And I do believe that it would have happened sooner or later if the EU hadn't happened first. The peoples of the Nordics have had our violent disagreements in the past, but we do mostly get along nicely these days.

Maybe let the baltics and the netherlands in as well for some added wealth and territory. The EU is so bad for countries like ours whose produce comes mostly from fishing and small farms. Also if we acted as a single entity we'd be in the same league as other major players, meaning other countries would finally take us seriously

@@Merecir There are no taxes "keeping the poor poor so they vote socialism" we have a mix economy that taxes rich and big corporations so that the poor can study for free and stop being poor. That is why America is full of homeless and we are not. Americans keep asking how much we pay in taxes, to feel better? first I'll say that the important part is how much money you end up with in your pocket AFTER paying those taxes, because most upper mid, mid and low class Swedish people make more AFTER our big taxes than equivalent Americans after their low taxes, on the other hand you can't put a price on happiness, taxes are high, but we keep getting high up on all kind of happiness lists. Also not having the expenses that Americans have, like school loans or excessive medical prices, we usually have more money to buy things, Sweden is a mix economic system, not socialism or capitalism, we are "lagom" the taxes only unintuitively, help us be great consumers of goods and luxury. In any case there is a lot of Swedish people that may love the idea of an American owned Scandinavia, the thing is that Swedish people with money are the ones that travel to USA, and when they are there they enjoy, they don't live the rough life that 60 % of Americans live everyday. The rich Swedish people look how the rich Americans live and they wish they could pay zero taxes like Amazon does. They come back here wishing Sweden was America. If the other way around was possible, if the the middle low and low class Americans could come here and see how swedes low and middle low class live and then go back, a big revolution would happen there. But the thing is that most Americans don't have the money to come to Europe, hell, every time I go there I meet people thay have barely leave their own state.

It’s less borders to protect our lands and furthers the room for more, even more ambiguous, contradictory mixing of identities in the future. Why fix what doesn’t need fixing? Do not ruin these beautiful lands and betray our ancestors who fought for their individuality/national identities. I LOVE my fellow Nordic people, which is why I say this.

The nordic countries are already allied with a shared welfare system etc. You don't need to be citizen you just need to be registered as living in any of the nordic countries and you will receive the same benefits as a citizen. If that could extend to trade as well so you could import/export products as if it was within the same country we would be halfway there. I don't think anyone would accept a shared political system though since Sweden is pretty much nuts when it comes to politics.

Got big doubts regarding the willingness of Iceland to join such a union. Denmark's rule of Iceland was gained from Norway via the Kalmar Union, only to keep it after the Union broke up. Then Iceland tried for a long time to gain independence, finally succeeding in 1944. I don't think Iceland will join in such an arrangement again, at least for a very long time.

Yeah fuck Christianity! It ruined the Norse worldview and indigenous Viking religious belief system of strong gods of war and love and passion and life!! - and replaced them with a pathetic weakling on the cross. Which led to the Vikings becoming tamed, as they began to worship this new emasculated “god” (read: weak little man?) on the cross who called normal human passions “sins” and made people feel guilty for just being human. The Norse gods were an affirmation of life - while the Christian god turned life into something sinful. Such a tragedy for the Norse and the Viking culture. Here’s hoping the old Norse gods rise again!!

It was a great honour to work in the Nordic countries looking after some clients in all these countries. From what little I understand, the Danes and Swedes would be constantly teasing each other. The Norwegians would be feeling a little superior and the Finns would be too busy partying and having lots of 'fun' in the bedroom. Iceland would be relieved it was slightly far enough away to get too involved. Seriously though, it's a nice thought but I like you all just as you are, you all have something special in your own ways. From an envious Brit.

I think Lünd should be the capital of this Union: Equally distant from the other Scandi capitals (except for Finland) so you can build similar infrastructure putting the capital at the geographical center. This position, similar to Copenhague will be the gate of the Baltic Sea, so trade will be lucrative. Lund already was a important market during the middle ages. Also the climate is maybe the warmest of all of the Nordic countries, so it makes life easier.

As for the capital, it's either Stockholm, Oslo or Gothenburg, I would think. Stockholm is the capital of largest of the countries and also holds a more central position than most of the other. Oslo is the capital of Norway, and has a better position when it comes to trading with other nations. It's also quite nice there. Gothenburg has the largest port in all of the Scandinavian and Nordic countries and is a great spot for trading opportunities. Although the road network is a mess and they are constantly rebuilding it, as well as being built on mud and clay, it would be a fine audition for a capital.
