kalmar union

The Kalmar Union was when the entire Nordic region (Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, and Greenland) was ruled under one monarchy from Denmark. The Swedes were the first to break away (as well as the Finns, but at the time Finland was under Sweden's rule) because Denmark kept going into random wars, and the Swedes were getting upset because the wars were frequent and rather pointless. Norway left after Sweden, leaving only Iceland with Denmark. But Iceland eventually broke away from Denmark too. So now Denmark is forever alone. Sucks for them.

Person 1: Why do we have to learn about the Kalmar Union in History class?
Person 2: Because it was a very major and important part of Scandinavian history. It made those countries what they are today.
