The name "Scandinavia" is derived from the formerly Danish, now Swedish, region Scania. The terms "Scandinavia" and "Scandinavian" entered usage in the late 18th century as terms for the three Scandinavian countries, their Germanic majority peoples[dubious – discuss] and associated language and culture, being introduced by the early linguistic and cultural Scandinavist movement. The term "Scandinavia" can also include Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Finland, on account of their historical associations with the Scandinavian countries.
