Okay, love that!
-as a younger child, Denmark was a lot more keen on protecting both Sweden and Norway. Norway wasn't sentient and was probably off somewhere eating dirt, and Sweden was incredibly stubborn and refused to listen. It frustrated the crap out of baby Den.
-Norway was both a gremlin child and a perfect angel child simultaneously. He could be super sweet and cute while also biting the shit out of someone's arm.
-Norway and Denmark were both very very stubborn, and they both disagreed a lot. Sweden essentially got to watch some of the most intense yet also strangely pathetic cat fights. One of them always ended up crying.
-Sweden had terrible eyesight, as we all know, but it was a lot worse when he was a child, so the others came to the only logical conclusion... Sweden is definitely cursed. The other two literally spent months trying to figure out what horrible sin Sweden could have committed to be so severely cursed. Sweden had to later explain to them that no, he did not cross any wizards or witches in his time, he just has really shitty eyesight.
-Norway would take very specific things very personally for no reason the others could explain. Denmark loved riling Norway up, so he would do everything in his power to piss him off. Some of these things include: giving Norway a nickname he didn't like, chewing with your mouth open (Denmark's natural state) and pulling Norway by his clothes. Norway would go fully ballistic if you did any of those things and Denmark made it his life mission to do each and every single one.
-Denmark was a lot more calm and generally more intelligent when he was younger. His decent into chaos was very gradual, but for the other two, it was really weird to watch Denmark go from a pretty responsible, calm leader to 'I'M GONNA SET SOMEONE ON FIRE AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP MEEEEE' Needless to say, Sweden found the transformation very funny.
I think that's enough for now. I love this ask. Anything child Nordic centric in general is always an absolute win on this blog.

Dawg?
Norway is perhaps one of the most misinterpreted characters, so I thought I would flesh out the other, lesser-known sides of him. He actually has a pretty wonderful personality, possessing several unique oddities and quirks that make Nordic-centred strips a pleasure to read.
Misconception: Norway’s emotionless.
Norway’s far from cold and emotionless. If anything, he’s a bit spacey and pensive, which can sometimes give off the impression of indifference. Other countries have made note of this, claiming that Norway “thinks from an entirely different dimension.”
Remember that Norway is able to see and communicate with magical creatures, including England’s. It’s not so much that he’s detached from emotions, but that he’s occasionally detached from the real world given how mundane, trivial, and boring it can be.
Misconception: He’s not close with the other Nordics
While Norway may make passive-sarcastic remarks or even blunt quips towards the other Nordic countries, he cares about them deeply. It’s not obvious because he’s a very timid character and doesn’t necessarily express this affection in an open manner.
After showing concern for Denmark’s health, Denmark refers to Norway as a worry wart.
Norway is also noted to stick his nose into Iceland’s business a lot. Notice the use of words. While bugging Iceland may be a bonus for Norway, who does in fact enjoy teasing Iceland, there’s a clear emotional investment to look after his little brother’s well-being.
Misconception: He doesn’t have a sense of humour.
Norway has a great and subtle sense of humour, albeit odd.
He and Iceland refer to each other as punks (totally adorable).
When Iceland has trouble getting his goods noticed on the market, the other Nordics develop a plan to help the former out. During their brainstorming, Norway jokes and says that he’ll dance as part of the process.
Misconception: He’s mean
Norway has a gentle and shy way of showing his kindness that is often overlooked.
Back to the idea of him poking his nose into Iceland’s business, Iceland secretly doesn’t mind Norway’s interference. There’s nothing but good intentions on Norway’s part, as he’s always looking after Iceland’s best interest.
Speaking of which, remember that time when Norway didn’t know what present to buy for Iceland?
Norway sends Iceland a link while they’re both outside a present shop and gives Iceland the option to choose what he wants. Iceland gets flustered and tells Norway that anything will do.
Sweet, thoughtful, sarcastic, and subtle, that’s just how Norway (t)rolls.
