Tell me something interesting about this country

that it is ISLAM
HAHAHAHA

For some reason a lot people seem to obsess over us despite it being a fairly irrelevant country.

Was the population of Sweden relatively big at the time? If not how was your army so strong as to rival England or Spain?

Gustav III was personal friends with Louis XVI and when the revolution broke out he assembled a network of spies across France and made plans to rescue Louis. Unfortunately for the both of them none of the other european powers at the time took him seriously.

Typical. He can't argue the facts so Swede reverts into muh butthurt meme.

The mentioning of it will make mutts post unoriginal stale memes.

for real though when is sweden going to realize they are killing themselves?

They have Lemmino aka Top10Memes. They have gravlax which is pretty good. They also produce really good absinthe, vodka and mead.

Will become 30% muslim in three decades. Pretty funny

No, it was very small and we conquered a huge amount of clay per capita. We had Sweden, Finland, part of Germany, we had Latvia and Estonia, and almost defeated Russia. The strength was due to warrior kings who made a lot of new ideas and revolutionzed military tactics ( like Gustavus Adolphus ) and due to our army being the Christian version of ISIS, they were protestant fanatics who believed they could survive enemy bullets due to God's protection.

Like I said, moronic period where greedy bloodthirsty kings got thousands of innocent finns killed in their evil wars. Worst period of Finnish history and Swedish too unless you are Sabaton listening monarchy worshipping cuck.

That's cool. Why didn't the Swedish speakers fled from Finland to Sweden when Russia conquered? Also check out this video maybe you know all the facts but it is pretty interesting video where I learned about Swedish empire.

Despite all the clickbait articles the political climate in Sweden has actually changed a hell of a lot in the last few years. I mean it's far too little far to late but it's still pretty interesting development. I just wish the national party wasn't so god damn fucking incompetent all the time.

sweden? moar liek swecuckistan lmao heil trump

they paint penises on their buildings

I've had this argument with you before, Pekka. The Baltic Sea being one of the most strategically valued points of interests in our part of the world, fighting for the dominion of it was an absolutely natural thing to do. If you want to complain about innocent people dying for Kings, then you shouldn't read history at all. It happened, all the time. Accept it and stop bitching about it. Learn to appreciate the fact that the bravery and genius of our army allowed us to resist becoming just another Russo-Slavic shithole with no future, past or present. By the way, the army was a way for many Finns to avoid starvation and make a living breeding horses for our cavalry. Keep crying about it if you want, it will change nothing

>It happened, all the time. Accept it and stop bitching about it.

I'm accepting that shitty things happened in history. By not being proud of bloodthristy idiot kings and those shitty things I'm just showing that I'm not a retard. Are you proud of those times?

>our army allowed us to resist becoming just another Russo-Slavic shithole with no future, past or present.

Russian rule was for Finland a golden time of our history if we don't count last hundred years.

I have to disagree. We conquered Skåne during those great empire era-wars.

Pretty important part of modern day Sweden.

>Are you proud of those times?
Very. How could I not be?

> if we don't count last hundred years.
yeah..

>Very. How could I not be?

You are proud of the time when Sweden was ISIS of Christian north? Swedish """""empire""""" was evil as fuck and being proud of it makes you evil.

>yeah..

My point is that Russian rule was light years better for Finland than Swedish rule.

it's comfy and the people are nice. Reminds me of home (Michigan)

Sweden was last country in Scandinavia to officially convert to Christcuckery.

And if we only could give it back.

the england of the nordics

The brutality of the Swedish Empire was a natural reaction to hostile and violent neighbours in a time where everyone would want us dead. We were more or less at war with Novgorod/r*Ssians since the 1200's. Danes tried to kick our asses all the time and tyrannized us which made us react by cucking them and taking their clay. Russia was always a threat. Poland, Germany. So many enemies, you were our only ( involuntarily ) friend

they actually sided with the vietcong

Based.
GI go home

Why would we do that?

Maybe for you, we lived well under it.

Cause Malmö is the biggest shithole in the north.

a good thing.

Sweden should be proud of it's achievements in creating one of the most equal welfare states in human history, it's peaceful society for 200 years, it's scientific contributions to human society. Don't be proud of bloodthirsty idiot kings from so called great power period.

you destroyed it so it's your responsibility.
no danes live there anymore anyway, swedish empire genocided them all.

Danes weren't genocided, kek. Provide a source if you can

who cares about finns being oppressed lol, you didn't do shit until like two hundred years ago, literal dust in the wind

Danes were expelled, they were never killed except for the time when they rebelled, then all the men capable of bearing arms were killed, but women and children were spared.

The founder of our royal dynasty was a french general. He promised Napoleon to never take up arms against him but broke his promise and took part in the war of the sixth coalition against him which allowed sweden to liberate Norway from Denmark.

>you didn't do shit until like two hundred years ago

That's because we finally got out of Swedish oppression two hundred years ago. After that our ascendancy has been great. Without Swedes north would be better place.

sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nedbränningen_av_Örkeneds_socken
just one of many cases.
everyone who resisted swedification of scania were killed and most of scania was resettled with swedes from the surrounding regions. there is literally no danes left, everyone have swedish names, speak swedish and follow swedish culture.

I know that you swedes see yourselves as saints, so any mentions of your misdeeds slide off like water on a raincoat.

Ok, let's talk some facts.
>opress finnish culture
Finns had the exact same rights as Swedes and Finland was an integrated part of the kingdom. You were allowed to adress the parliament in Finnish and Finnish representatives attended the election of the kings prior to the abolishment of the elective monarchy.
>useless moronic wars to enrich monarchy
No, typically it was useless moronic wars at the behest of corrupt noblemen after the monarchy lost its powers during the so-called age of liberty following the end of the empire.
>war breaks out in europe
>the participating powers bribe these noblemen to vote to join the war
>said noblemen vote for the war and send in the underequipped and outdated army with no real goal or strategy
>thousands of swedes and finns die of disease and starvation without having seen a single enemy
>monarchy worshipping cuck
Typically the monarch and the peasants would be "allies" if you could call it that against the powerful noblemen. Kings such as Karl X Gustav, Karl XI, and Karl XII worked to restrict the powers of the nobility through so called "reductions" (confiscating their property, tearing down their castles, etc.) which would be followed by selling the land to the peasants. Karl XI put a de-facto end to serfdom in the baltic provinces (the only place in the kingdom where it was practiced due to the agreements with the ruling German noblemen by which they had been aquired) The peasant estate was always in favor of powerful monarchs over powerful noblemen.
>My point is that Russian rule was light years better for Finland than Swedish rule.
Yes it was, I don't deny that, but if Swedish rule had never happened and instead Russian rule was established in the 1100s then you would have suffered hundreds of years of serfdom which you never did under Sweden because Sweden itself never had serfdom.

don't talk about this fuckwit, the Kings of old were the real kings. Everyone later than 1800's were shit kings of faggy french descent

beautiful females, sissy males

lots of niggers and arabs too, culturalmarxism too

Like I told you, they rebelled against us and were put down. That's how things worked back during those times. I could mention the backstabbing crimes of the Danes but I don't really feel like complaining since you always lost anyway.

interesting fact: swedes only live in stockholm area
the rest is danish, norwegian, goth and sami land

>king has no heirs
>"lol, let's just grab some random dude from France so Napoleon will like us, then he can help us reclaim Finland"
>"oh shit, Napoleon dosn't really like this guy"
>"oh fuck, he couldn't give less of a fuck about Finland, instead he's grabbing Norway"

Not even remotely true, the Svear tribe was never even based around Stockholm, but rather further close to Mälardalen and Roslagen ( where the Rus tribe came from, too ).

>After that our ascendancy has been great.
what ascendancy lol
literally the only thing you have is being comfy and some tech

Sverige är jätte bög :DD

Because we were too much of a good thing for them. Highest literacy rate in the Russian Empire among other things.

I see your point, thank you for corrections! Altho Finnish culture was opressed. Finnish wasn't the language of higher education or administration meaning that finnish culture couldn't thrive.

>literally the only thing you have is being comfy and some tech

What more do you need? From Swedish oppression to top comfiness is great ascendancy.

You can argue whether it was a genocide or not but harsh measures were taken to swedify the local population during and after the Scanian war. The Danish language was forbidden in church, all Danish literature was collected and destroyed, villages suspected of aiding the danish armies suffered massacres, local farmers in some cases had their land stolen and awarded to officers and cavalrymen and Scanians were forbidden from joining the army for several decades.

Just like during any conquest, ever. Rightfully so

>What more do you need? From Swedish oppression to top comfiness is great ascendancy.

There's a totally unsubstantiated theory that the Goths emigrated to mainland Europe from Gotland a very long time ago, but I don't think anyone seriously believes that anymore. I guess you meant to say the Geats.

Abisko is really nice user, they call Lappland the last true wilderness of Europe

god I hope russia destroys finland so thoroughly historians in only 200 years will scratch their head at the mention of a landmass existing north of the baltics

Sunday there is Sweden - Finland in Sweden Hockey Games

You should visit, user. It's a good place

It will happen eventually, problem is taking off 4 weeks from an american job is basically impossible

Arctic places are the worst, either it's too much snow and too cold or filled with huge mosquitoes
