Korea has been claimed, as has Manchuria. The rest is available though.

Hey, can I get help with filling out the history section for my nation? I want to know how my nation would have been formed (mainly in regards to pan-Scandinavism).

The issue with the pan-Scandinavian movement is that it promoted a dominant group (often Sweden). Norway (which was under Swedish rule up until 1905) didn't like this one bit. And Denmark had had historically meh relations with Sweden because of wars in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. For the colonies, it's an easy fix, Sweden doesn't give up on them out of pride. Perhaps after a certain Peter the Great destroys the Swedish, Sweden becomes more focused on it's remaining colonies. And that fact is especially driven in after Russia seizes Finland and Åland in the early 19th century, prompting Sweden to become very paranoid about its remaining territories.

Should I rename Scandinavia to Sweden then and turn both Denmark and Norway into puppet regimes?

I am not saying that. because in doing so, Norway and Denmark would declare independence. Becoming Sweden is exactly why pan-Scandinavianisim failed in the early 20th century. I was simply giving historical context for how you may want to shape your history.

what if Sweden kept Norway in 1905? likely wouldn't that change the scenario?
also, for my IC post, would Siam have to agree to building a bridge/tunnel to their territory?

1. I was implying that. But it would mean a serious re-write of the constitution and several pretty radical reforms.
2. I thought Malasiya would be closer, as would Singapore. But Siam might accept.
