Siri Ingvaldsen , Thomas Larsson , Erik Overgaard Pedersen The Nordic Nations are a modern success story. By many measures, these countries are amongst the most successful on Earth. Positioned on the northern border of Europe but still very much in the mainstream of Western European culture, the Nordic Nations have developed excellent health, social and education systems as well as strong economic growth. Authors Siri Ingvaldsen, Thomas Larsson and Erik Overgaard Pedersen explain how these countries have developed in the period since the Napoleonic wars, surviving European conflicts and internal friction to become modern states The resource has been written for the European regional option HL.
