The point is, you cannot equate 4 million Scandinavians with 350,000,000 diverse Americans.
Nitpick time ...
Finns are not Scandinavian. They are an ethnically and linguistically separate group, related to Estonians and Hungarians and Sami.
The Scandinavian nations are Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland. Different languages, but mutually understandable to some degree. Swedes will say the Danes sound mushy, the Norwegians sound chipper, and the Icelanders sound archaic. Finnish is a completely different language.
The Sami would be the indigenous people of northern Norway-Sweden-Finland-Russia (Murmansk area). The old name for them is "Laplander", but that's considered pejorative now, much like using the word "indian" to refer to Native Americans.
