Correct answer
Explanation
Norway is called 'The Land of the Midnight Sun' because during summer months (approximately May to July), the sun does not set for about 76 days north of the Arctic Circle. Oslo is the capital of Norway. Reykjavik (Iceland's capital, misspelled here) also experiences midnight sun, but Norway is more famously associated with this nickname. Helsinki is Finland (also has midnight sun). Godthaab (Nuuk) is Greenland's capital. Stockholm is Sweden's capital. Copenhagen is Denmark's capital.
