Olso. Mainly because of their history and for a time, they were the viking leaders of the north.

Hmm i was thinking between Helsinki and Stocholm (however it spells) but i choosen Stolcholm only because Helsinki is closer to Russia

Well, Iceland is isolated and the AI doesn't always do amphibious invasions, so, Iceland is practically untouchable.

The Early Nordics came from norway, which were the vikings and invaded europe. Olso suits fine as a capital. Iceland? If norway's viking army was still around, they would have crushed the iceland capital.

I would also include Estonia/Estland in your Nordic Union, they are alredy members of the Nordic Battle Group and have a propossed Nordic flag. And as for the Nordics comming from Norway only, I would pick-up a history book on the subject and read it. You are forgeting about Albert the Great and his wars against the Danes and the Dane Law in Southeastern England and what about the Varragingians from Sweeden and there conquest against the Russians and establishement of the Rus! Each of the three Viking peoples specialized in different aspects, the Danes on conquest, the Norwegians on exploration, and the Sweedes on trade.

Yes, this is not scandinavia, but adding Estonia would not be wrong, since they have applied for membership in the Nordic council :-).
EDIT: Added more options to the pool

I'm eager for your mod to be finished, to bad there is no way to include the territories lost durring the Winter War. You should add the hydropower stations on the Paatsjoki River (2 Norwegian, 3 Russian), the Petsamo oil fields, and the Polyarnyy Naval Fabrication north of the Kola River and Severomorsk and Murmansk.
