Is there a trading region that is specific to Scandinavia and not all of Europe?

The EFTA used to have a high percentage of scandinavian countries, though now its just Norway (and some non-scandinavian countries). Its a trading association for non-EU European states.

I think I know what you're thinking about, too, but I'm not sure it exists as a formal trading association. The scandinavian countries do have some immigration deals that impact the EU, though.

How about The Hanseatic League. Or am I showing my age again.

The EU is too big for my mind to deal with right now, aside from the fact that I am SO not writing market analyses for that many countries.

I already have the information for Norway and Sweden from a previous project.

[Mad]

Damn EU...

What language is this, and what does it say? Can I call it a trade region?!

I hate professors who change what they want...

Well, seeing how the contact information lists Goteborg http://www.sackeus.se/kontakt.htm I'm guessing Swedish.

I wonder if I can just say the EU, but then be like, "Except the EU is way too big to be addressed as one market, so let's focus on Scandinavia, kiddies!"

...except, you know....with....numbers.

just keep in mind Norway is not in the EU [Wink]

Fine. Scandinavia is now a trade region. I don't care if it actually is or not. It is because I say it is, and I haven't gotten much sleep, so my word is law.

Its the VPA--the Viking Pillagers Association.

It was set up to counter both the PLC (Pirate Looters Confederation) and SCENT (Secret Coop of Enterprising Ninja Traders).

After all, besided Ninja's and Pirates, Vikings Rock!

Yes, and you know, I think it's very important to corner the market in Viking beauty products.

Because really, you need to look pretty while you're wearing those helmets and stabbing people with spears.

Is it bad that as soon as I saw this thread title, I made a farting noise in my head?
