I wonder about this paragraph: "In a cultural sense, Fennoscandia signifies the historically close contact between Sami, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian and Russian peoples and cultures. Unlike the term "Nordic countries", Fennoscandia does not include Denmark, Iceland, Greenland or other geographically disconnected overseas areas."
Since when was Denmark not a part of Fennoscandia? And when did the Russians get involved?
I've come across the term Fenno-Scandinavia used for the cultural context as well. Perhaps an expanded and cleaned up article can address both issues. That is, Fenno-Scandinavia in a geological/geographical context and Fenno-Scandinavia in a cultural context.
Is the peninsula not different from the region? Split?
My reading has lead me to believe Fennoscandia (or the Fennoscandian Peninsula) is different from Fenno-Scandinavia. The former being a geographical peninsular, which itself, contains the
Scandinavian peninsula (mainland Norway, Sweden and north-west Finland), the rest of mainland Finland, and the mainland parts of the
Karelian Republic and
Murmansk Oblast in Russia. With the latter being a cultural region comprising all of
Scandinavia (thus including Denmark) as well as
Finland. Is this correct? Should we split the article? Granted, its only a stub, but, if my thinking is correct, they are quite different areas and thus the only justification for one articles is the similarity between the terms (which I think would be a weak and unhelpful reason, if that is the case).

Original research: Finnish, Norwegian and Swedish Peninsulas
This map currently features placenames that are not used anywhere else. Even if "Finnish Peninsula", "Norwegian Peninsula", and "Swedish Peninsula" are quite descriptive, they nonetheless seem to be the unique invention of whomever created the map. — Preceding
