There are sometimes arguments about whether Finland should be considered a part of Scandinavia, but Denmark is not up for debate.

Culturally yes, geographically; no way. This is from the wiki article you linked:

in English usage, it also sometimes refers to the Scandinavian Peninsula

I'm glad we agree there, at least

You didn't say the Scandinavian Peninsula, so I didn't know that's what you meant.

well, like I said, that post might've come off as pedantic, and it wouldn't have made sense anyway if I included Denmark in that, since there's no way around you guys being part of 'continental Europe' innit?

Lilja is Swedish, tho with fear of being pedantic, Scandinavia (that's Scandinavia proper, sry Denmark lol) isn't usually counted as part of "continental Europe", is it? I'm also Norwegian btw, so that would count one more towards European members, continental or not.

^ Well that's a surprise, Gigantic D ! I had no idea!

Shifting focus to Europe south of The Alps, ( or for the pedantic, south of an extended line drawn through The ), we left out Zarbaqal from Spain, but I think he's he's the only guy from Southern Europe. I wonder why.

I would have said it is Continental Europe.

Norway and Denmark are connected to the mainland.

Yeah, I don't mention very often in forum posts (simply because I have no particular reason to (not that I post a lot in general tbh)) so it makes sense that a lot of people wouldn't know.

Well if you wanna be technical - yes, it's continental, but most of the time, if you live in Scandinavia you would have to cross a stretch of sea to get to "the continent", so we might as well be off on some island like Iceland or the brits, leading us to fall outside that classification.
