    That reminds me of:




    By the way, the United States ARE in fact a democracy. It's not a simple representative democracy, I'll give you that: it's but a constitutional republic. But as a whole, the system is Democracy (as oposed to Dictatorship, Theocracy, Anarchism, etc) -based.

    Lots of cold and snow
    Around 8-9 million people? Not sure
    Stockholm
    Big empire back in the XVI-XVIII centuries
    Great standards of living
    ABBA
    Nobel Prize!!

    and a few others...

    PS. Also your national party is around 5 of June? I remember you had a free day last week
  8. Very good! It's 6th of June though And we passed 9 millions a few years ago

    And Gothenburg (my city) easily beats Stockholm!
  9. The girls in Sweden are very beautiful right I love blond girls and I guess Sweden is the place to be then
