Parties in the south of Portugal are usually quite awesome (Santarém, Lisbon). Lots of festivals, great parties, espaectacular crowds, usually power line-ups. Can't complain this side of the world! |

Hey Papay!  First of all, no, I'm not fucking kidding you ^^ The "Official" Scandinavian countries includes the three kingdoms of Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The other Nordic countries, Finland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands, are also sometimes included because of their close historic and cultural relations to Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. But in all reality (well, this is a case that can be discussed without a result because there is no real border of Scandinavia). Finland is a part of The Nordic Countries/Region, not Scandinavia. If you actually take the time to read all the text that is written in Wikipedia, you will also see that I'm not fucking kidding you. But since there seem to be a 'Hey, if you want to include Finland & Island in Scandinavia or not' mentality going around, I, In my opinion will not include Finland in the term 'Scandinavia'. For me, Scandinavia contains three main countries. Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Hope that ok with you.

Yeah, one of the Nordic countries, not Scandinavian. Althou technically (history wise), from which the name "Scandinavia" came. It should technically be Finland alone that is known as Scandinavia.  "The dinosaurs became extinct because they didn't have a space program."

@ T-Man - Oh? Interesting. Care to eleberate? I also read in the Wikipedia text that, quote: Estonia has applied for membership in the Nordic Council, referring to its cultural heritage and close linguistic links to Finland, although normally Estonia is regarded as one of the Baltic countries. All Baltic states have shared historical events with the Nordic countries, including Scandinavia, during the centuries.
- I have nothing against them, but my vote says no.

Quoting stuff..
According to almost any present archaelogist or other new source about the subject the linquistic ancestors of Finns have been living in Finland and also in some areas that are now Sweden, since the ice age more than 10 000 years ago. Germanic language is quite a new in Scandinvia compared to that. Germanic languages are called scandinavian languages, but that is only a linquistic term. Actually in Scandinavia fenno-ugric is a lot older form of a language. Linquistic term "scandinavian language" is not a reason to count something out or in Scandinavia, there is also history and pre-history that makes Scandinavia.
And there's more:
Roman and greek historians recognized the fact that there were "Fenni" or "Phinnoi" living in almost all parts of Scandinavia (Tacitus ca 100AD, Ptolemy ca 150AD) and this is also indicated in the oldest maps that can be found over the region. The terms "skridifinn" , "skidifinn" and "skrifinn" (skiing finns) are also found. According to Jordane (ca 550AD), the "island Scandza" was inhabited by several tribes, as he mentions Scerefennae (skiing Finns, wandering Finns), Suehans, Theustes, Vagoth, Bergio, Hallin, Liothida, Ahemil, Finnaithae (Finns of the heath, Finns of the plains), Fervir, Gauthigoth, Evagre, Ottingis, Ostrogothae, Raumariciae, Finni mitissimi (gentle Finns), Suetidi, Heruli and others. If the origin of Scandinavia is derived from the "island Scandza" and finnic tribes are mentioned among one of the first inhabitants, if not the first, I don't see any grounds for excluding Finland from Scandinavia based on false claims, that the finnic ties to Scandinavia are merely a few hundred years old. Being provocative, one could say, that the swedish and norwegian ties to Scandinavia could be interpreted as being only around 1500 yrs old
Interesting link http://antiquity.ac.uk/ProjGall/rankama/
Perhaps Scandinavia should be renamed Fenno-Scandinavia or something..
e. to not go completely OT
There are plenty of parties in Helsinki. Most of them Suomi, but sometimes international acts..
