so, you know the article I made on Scandinavian-American history on Kidznet (https://net.kidzsearch.com/the-history-of-scandinavian-americans-october-9th-special/) I said something wrong
so, I was on Wikipedia researching the Union between Norway-Sweden *ahem, Norden* for a school essay (we had to write about failed unions, and I chose Norway-Sweden) when I came across this goofy piece of information
hmm Yes. nutrition
I am not the best at Nutrition, yes I passed 6th grade Health class with a 98% grade, But from what I know, Sweden was bad with Nutrition.
Keep in mind this is in the 1800s. Norway and Sweden were one country. Also, can we just talk that there was a literal Famine that lasted 4 years in Norway-Sweden. You know what was one of the reasons they moved to America? Health reasons. And No, This isn't just because of a certian book series. if u know u know
Meanwhile Finland…. Finland had W A R
with who you ask? Norden and Russia
lets just say that the 1800s were pure chaos, Iceland and Sápmi were just vibing btw
simplified, 1800s Scandinavia was starvation, war and immigration
