Modern Home on the Scandinavia Peninsula

Wallpaper Description:

Arguably the largest peninsula in Europe, the Scandinavian Peninsula is approximately 1,850 kilometers (1,150 mi) long with a width varying approximately from 370 to 805 kilometers (230 to 500 miles). The Scandinavian mountain range generally defines the border between Norway and Sweden. The peninsula is bordered by several bodies of water including:

>The Baltic Sea (including the Gulf of Bothnia) to the east, with the autonomous Ã…land islands between Sweden[5] and Finland, and Gotland.
>The North Sea (including the Kattegat and Skagerrak) to the west and southwest
>The Norwegian Sea to the west
>The Barents Sea to the north

About one quarter of the Scandinavian Peninsula lies north of the Arctic Circle, its northernmost point being at Cape Nordkyn (North Cape), near the town of Hammerfest, Norway.

Much of the population of the Scandinavian Peninsula is naturally concentrated in its southern part, which is also its agricultural region. The largest cities of the peninsula are Stockholm, Sweden, Oslo, Norway, Gothenburg, Sweden, Malmö, Sweden and Bergen, Norway, in that order.
