Which of these geographical areas constitutes a province known as Scania?

Scania, the anglicised form of the Swedish name Skåne, is the southernmost of the historical provinces of Sweden; its flag is shown in the picture. This historical province is roughly conterminous with Skåne County, which Sweden created in 1997 in the region known as Götaland. Scania/Skåne still features in colloquial speech and in cultural references, and so is not be regarded as an archaic concept.

To the north, Skåne borders the provinces of Halland and Småland, to the northeast Blekinge, to the east and south the Baltic Sea, and to the west Öresund. The province’s largest city, Malmö, is the third-largest city in Sweden, as well as the fifth-largest in Scandinavia. Since 2000, a road and railway bridge, the Öresund Bridge, bridges the Sound and connects Scania/Skåne with Denmark.

Scania/Skåne is small: from north to south it measures around 130 kilometres (80 miles) and covers less than 3% of Sweden's total area. The population is more than 13% of the country's population making it the second most densely populated province in Sweden.
