Scania

Scania ( in Swedish) is a geographical region of Sweden on the southernmost tip of the Scandinavian peninsula, a historical province (landskap) in the Kingdom of Sweden, before 1658 a province in the Kingdom of Denmark and part of the historical lands of Denmark, since 1997 a county (län) of Sweden. To the north, it borders the provinces Halland, Småland and Blekinge, to the east and south the Baltic Sea, and to the west the Oresund strait. It is part of the transnational Oresund Region and the historical region Skåneland (Terra Scania or the Scanian land). Around 130 km long from north to south, Scania covers less than 3% of Sweden's total area. The population of 1,200,000 represents 13% of Sweden's total population.
