Answer: B. Scandinavia

Beowulf is an epic poem written in Old English by an anonymous Anglo-Saxon scholar. However, the story is set in Scandinavia. It tells the story of Beowulf, hero of the Geats, who comes to the aid of Hrothgar, the king of the Danes, in his conflict with the monster Grendel. As the manuscript has no title, it is known by the name of its main character.
