History Webcomic / ScandinaviaandtheWorld

* {{Jerk with a Heart of Gold}}: [[{{Eagleland}} America]] by all appearances, a sometimes-{{Jerkass}}y, loudmouthed but generally (fairly) well-intentioned idiot. [[FridgeBrilliance Hey, that]] [[StephenColbert sounds familiar!]][[hottip:*:[[DontExplainTheJoke He really]] '''[[DontExplainTheJoke is]]''' [[DontExplainTheJoke America!]]]]

* PassThePopcorn: [[http://satwcomic.com/the-wonder-of-glasses Norway doesn't need to own a TV]] because he can watch Sweden and Denmark winding each other up.

** What Denmark does when asked to speak Swedish. This includes saying [[TheMuppets "Bork bork bork."]]

* RapeAsComedy: [[http://satwcomic.com/leaking "Leaking"]]

* BlueWithShock: Sweden, Denmark, and Norway, when Iceland shows off the latest addition to his penis collection.

* FanDisservice: The picture of the Canada siblings in swimwear. Let's just say... body hair. This was largely the point, or at least to point out that the author thinks the disgust of it is largely ridiculous. [[FetishFuel Then again, some of us like a bit of fluff.]]

** And Sister Denmark, whose response to being [[http://satwcomic.com/confusion mistaken for a long-haired guy by France]] is to ask to borrow Sister Sweden's strap-on.

* DagwoodSandwich: Denmark's [[http://satwcomic.com/tall-food-is-good-food Smørrebrød]]

** Sweden. ("You have no right to judge me! You weren't there! I was a stupid teenager! I was horny! And it was a really cute horse!")

* AnimeAnatomy: Finland [[http://satwcomic.com/the-day-after here.]]

* HoYay
** Norway and Denmark.
** Sweden and Åland.
** America becomes ecstatically happy when Canada sits on his head.
** FoeYay: Sweden and Finland.
** England apparently still [[http://satwcomic.com/bedtime-drama-2 sleeps in the same bed]] as all of his grown sons in their underwear (plus New Zealand).

* IncestIsRelative: America has a lot of HoYay with Canada, who is his adopted brother; England is America's birth father and adopted Canada from France.

* LesYay: Sister Norway and Sister Denmark. Sister Sweden and... well, everyone.
* LovableSexManiac: ''Denmark''

** I don't think America being a virgin is the reason he broke down. He broke down because he has issues with self image and his sexuality. (Which is probably why he's still a virgin.)

** That there is FridgeBrilliance, since the United States are only about 234 years old (young-ish compared to the other nations in the series), which could be the "teenage years" for a nation.

* TruthInTelevision: As an Italian, I can confirm that [[http://satwcomic.com/your-time-is-up Italy this one]] is the pure truth.

''[[http://satwcomic.com Scandinavia and the World]]'' is a popular webcomic by {{DeviantArt}} member [[http://humon.deviantart.com/ Humon]]. It is a comic about stereotypes, history and culture in the form of [[NationsAsPeople national personifications]] interacting with one another (not unlike AxisPowersHetalia), but focusing on, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Scandinavia]]. The main characters are Denmark, a cheerful, but culturally naive party boy; Norway, a friendly and calm nature lover; and Sweden, the uptight technology expert.

** [[http://satwcomic.com/anything-but-that Sweden]] enjoys his [[AmnesiaTheDarkDescent video games]] maybe a little too much...

** North Korea is worth noting, though.

* StrawmanPolitical: America flip-flops between left and right depending on the comic. Though with Sister America getting more characterization, he might be staying to the right.\\\
Humon has stated that the America siblings basically have the minds of teenagers, making them incredibly opinionated to the extreme, but completely unwilling to do any research whatsoever on anything they're talking about. Leading to "debates" on whether gays are penguins or flamingos, and whether it's right to step on their eggs.\\\

* WellDoneSonGuy: Great Britain was too busy doing other things to be America's Father, [[TheAmericanRevolution guess what happened next]].

* FridgeBrilliance
** It makes sense that Scania and [=FennoSwede=] have the same flag. Technically, they're cousins.
** You know how Denmark and the Netherlands always manage to show up in time to harass Germany when he's trying to flirt with Sister Japan? Just glance at a map of Europe...''he shares borders with them.'' They're ''always'' nearby!
** Unintended most likely, but... Sydney, New South Wales has a lot of New Zealanders living there. A lot. Who's the mother of New South Wales? New Zealand!
* FridgeHorror: Norway introduced the others to his cousin Jan Mayen as his "friend". Sweden commented that he looked dead. It was later revealed that Norway and Jan Mayen used to have an incestuous relationship, and that Jan Mayen got killed for it. That means Norway is keeping the corpse of his dead lover somewhere in his house....

* CompensatingForSomething: Iceland owns three gigantic cars, goes sky diving down volcanoes, and collects dismembered animal penises... he also happens to have a very small... ahem... [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean population]].

* IfYouKnowWhatIMean: Literally said by Sister Sweden [[http://satwcomic.com/who-s-your-daddy in one of the comics]].

* TheNapoleon: Canada threatens in one comic to America that just because he's America's hat, doesn't change the fact that [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean Canada is on top.]] America just thought this was hilarious.
