The Kalmar Union was when the entire Nordic region (Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, and Greenland) was ruled under one monarchy from Denmark. The Swedes were the first to break away (as well as the Finns, but at the time Finland was under Sweden's rule) because Denmark kept going into random wars, and the Swedes were getting upset because the wars were frequent and rather pointless. Norway left after Sweden, leaving only Iceland with Denmark. But Iceland eventually broke away from Denmark too. So now Denmark is forever alone. Sucks for them.
Person 1: Why do we have to learn about the Kalmar Union in History class?
Person 2: Because it was a very major and important part of Scandinavian history. It made those countries what they are today.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.
Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.
A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
