Jan Mayen
Jan Mayen (north of Iceland..) wasn't claimed by any state (at least not any Scandinavian state) until 1922 (by law 1930) when it was annexed by Norway.. So I suspect that it wasn't part of the Kalmar Union in the 15th/16th century. --MrGulli (talk) 18:36, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, Greenland would not have been part of the Kalmar Union (or any European nation) for that matter cira 1500. --Blkgardner (talk) 06:45, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Nor, I'll add, Orkney or Shetland. Both were ceded to Scotland in 1468 and 1469, respectively, as payment for an outstanding debt. RJW37 (talk) 15:53, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

 * I believe Greenland lost regular contact with the rest of Europe in the early 15th century, although the Norse remained on the island until the late 15th century. While the Kalmar Union still retained a claim over the area, and it is possible that some Norse remained in Greenland until 1500, the Kalmar union didn't maintain any sort of control over any part of Greenland. --Blkgardner (talk) 22:06, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
