A nice dream would be a Baltic-Nordic union and defence pact, but without nuclear deterrent it wouldnt work, economically it could do fine.

Swedes and Norwegians together?
I once had a Norwegians email-pal who told me this story: him sitting aboard a regular SAS flight from Sweden to Norway, the crew (forgot wether it was a stewardess or the captain) made an announcement when they passed the border into Norway: "Ladies and gentleman, we are entering norwegian airspace now. Please set back your clocks by a hundred years."
Swedes and Norwegians together? that is like German and Austrian football players forming one national team, and being applauded from an all-Dutch audience!
