Slight nitpick, these countries would be Nordic and not Scandivanian (as that would exclude Finland and Iceland). Also, the cells have a white background color which means in dark mode it looks kinda off.

Other than that, absolutely stunning :D

Thanks! And fair point. Since the definition of Scandinavia is somewhat loose I went with it but in most cases it excludes Finland and Iceland as you say so Nordic is the better fit,

I love how Mollehoj with a height of 170 meters is considered a mountain in this quiz.

the map for Norway's counties is slightly outdated, since Norway merged alot of its counties in 2020

You are correct (as your name would suggest). I will add a note that it predates the most recent change. Not ideal but changing it doesn't seem feasible without a new map and reset of the stats. Apparently some of the changes have not been too popular either so who knows how long it lasts ;)
