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?

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.
