Scandinavia and the World is a comic drawn by a Danish woman (I think?) named humon, it originated on DeviantArt. It's basically anthropomorphized versions of Scandinavian countries (Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Denmark, Finland) and later included other countries as well (the US, Canada, Mexico etc).

I think the internet consensus is that while pretty amusing and spot-on about certain Scandinavian stereotypes, the comic has a tendency to slip onto the realm of unfunny, clueless stereotypes that can be pretty damn offensive. humon hasn't been too good at defending herself, or apologizing when she's fucked up. As a Scandinavian person, I got a few laughs out of earlier strips, nowadays I find it pretty bland and unfunny.

This secret seems a straight up troll tbh.

Ah, I see. Well, I'll check it out. Hopefully I'll enjoy a few before I come across an offensive one. So I assume that means I should look at the earlier ones?

It's not spot on about Scandinavian stereotypes. Even when it comes to that she just makes shit up.

Absolutely. After looking through a few, I've decided it's really not my thing at all.
