Denmark has approximately 5,3 million inhabitants - this amounts to roughly 1,4 % of the total EU population.

Q for Scandanavian countries

Scandanavian countries (even Sweden) are quite small compared to the big ones. Yet, I wonder.

Why do they seem to have influence well beyond what their sheer numbers would lead you to expect? From my perspective, they use that influence well, and Europe would be worse off without them, but why such heft for such small countries?

my country

My country and city have these data as of the 2000 census:

Texas - 20,851,820
Houston-Galveston metro area - 4,669,571
Harris county - 3,400,578
Houston city proper - 1,953,631

The wonderful source for all this is Profiles of General Demographic Characteristics (what an awful name).

That's a very good question binkley, and I really don't know. But it might have something to do with the fact that they have excisted for many years, and have always tried not to seem to important.

From my perspective, they use that influence well

Or maybe it's because of that?
