Just want to point out that Dumstrang doesn't realy have any Scandivian names. One is almost, but considering Sweden did actualy have possesions in East-Europe and it was a Swedish name that is the only one mentioned and that person died a long time ago. I find it hard as the Nowegian page comments on that they don't have the accent at all, apperance or clothing. Most of it lookes to be east european.

Thefore, it's very unlikey it's where Scandvians all attend school especaly considering Sweden only had Norway from 1814 to 1905 meanwhile Denmark had Norway for 417 years if we includ the Kalmar Union between all of Scandivia and Norway was never foud of the Swedish union. I am aware JK. Rowling might never thought about it, but she did't really ever give the Dumstrang students a Nordic wibe. Except bathing in cold water, but Russia does that a lot as well. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jarl Augustinus Norsleie (talkcontribs).
