  1. Monarchy (Karl Gustav??)
    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...

    I am not the biggest expert in the Sverige topic, but without using Wikipedia it's quite good, huh?


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

    And it's not always cold here, summer usually gives us some nice warm sunny weather You got our idiot king right too, with the wrong spelling though (checked wikipedia for that spelling , I'm very much against monarchy)

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


  4. Absolutely +1 , I don't know how I could forget it There are lots of Swedish girls in Spain all the time, specially during Summer...


  5. I'd have to say that quite many of them are beautiful I think some kind of poll or something established that Swedish girls are the most beautiful
  6. On the notion of democracy, there is nowhere in the world that is a truly functional democracy. Anyone who claims the UK is a true democracy is misguided in my opinion, as is anyone who says that about the US or anywhere else - anywhere where public opinion isn't truly transposed/reflected by the distribution of power amongst the controlling element = a failed attempt at it. That said, I'd rather live in what we have at the moment than the alternatives that have tried and failed over the past. I can't stand the current government we have here, but I'd take it any day over the monarchies of the past. Just a UK-centric perspective.

    To be honest I really wanted to go to Sweden some day, I think its a beautiful country and not just because of the girl there

    In fact, the UK system would be near to perfect if the head of state was a chosen person instead of a birth-designed one. Your electoral system is not that bad (there are even better ones, though), and your institutions work pretty good (from a foreigner's point of view of course)... But yep, I agree: nothing is perfect, although Democracy is the closest you can get to a perfect form of government.

    Maybe we should create a "Countries" topic to carry on the discussion in, we're moving beyond politics I'll have to ask one of you to do it, since I'm on my iPod
  10. Unnecesary. It can be talked and discussed in this thread, thanks

  12. Okay, nice double posts by me. I don't know what happened to my internet there, but it couldn't load a single page.
