Summary: | It has been said that the northern nations of Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Iceland, personify unity within diversity.Ties of ethnographic and cultural kinship give these northern peoples a sense of unity and a desire for working together. At the same time, the varying outlooks and aspirations which the five countries have come to hold as a result of their differing geographic, economic and political conditions and experiences, have produced a strong desire for independence and the preservation of their own ways of life.
