the nordic countries are single-branch

According to this official government page Norway at least does have separation of powers into multiple branches. I haven't looked into the other nordic countries, but it's hard to believe that they don't at least separate out the judiciary (courts) from the rest.

Power in Norway is divided into three branches:

  • the Storting – the legislative branch
  • the Government – the executive branch
  • the courts – the judicial branch
