You forgot Roxette which is one of Sweden’s biggest musical exports. Not only for their massive world wide chart and touring success but also their domestic success. Also Per Gessle has written songs for a number of international stars.

Hi, I’d say Swedes like Donald Duck because he wears blue and yellow!

I’m from Sweden and I find this article very interesting. There’s many facts here that I didn’t know. Such as the Volvo, North Korea thingy. I really find this funny to know that we are double the popularity than Norway, they are really our lil bro.

This article made me LOVE Sweden even more than I already did. The way you recycle waste not only from Sweden but also from Norway and Denmark is just amazing!!!! How wonderful for earth!!!! That was probably my favorite part of the article and also how you treat your workers with two breaks!! That’s so benifitial for all.
I Love your foreign cars I have to say!! I also wanted to say Donald Duck is my favorite too. I love how he talks. I really wish you still had call a Sweden !!! I would love to have made friends with someone and been able to ask some questions about life and living there. I would like to have a pen pal from Sweden. I did learn some things I did not know, like the nicotine gum. How cool!! Other things too. Sweden is a great place to live. I would not mind the dark period myself. I like the coziness of home and snuggling in. Thanks for posting this article.

I enjoyed this article emensly!! I wasn’t surprised to hear any of these fascinating facts! I find Sweden to be of breathtaking beauty!!!! It’s people are wonderful and caring and after reading about what North Korea did to them and the way they handle it, they also show how classy they are. I Love the way they take care of the environment as the example with the trees and how they care for their employees as the example with having two breaks a day!! The burn out effect is reduced so much in the way they do this and they are still very effective workers. Probably more so because workers want to give 100% back to a company that takes good care of them. That would be my mentality. I would love to try this popular drink they spoke of and see the ice castle, solor system and so much more!! I have always wanted to go to Sweden. I wish I could live there. I don’t like living in North America. It’s supposed to be this land of opportunity and dreams. What a joke. EVERYTHING is broken here!! The justice system, the political system is corrupt, people are arrogant and only care about beautiy and wealth. If you are poor from bad health you are treated like a leapor. No one cares or really wants to help you. Price gouging is huge here! Stealing, lying, cheating, trafficking, child porn, incest, rape, murder! All the ugly stuff no one wants to talk about. Cover up is everywhere. Pollution and the environment are not treated important enough. We cut trees down and wipe out the birds and everything else. We pollute our oceans!! We are killing ourselves!! There is no law against having exotic animals as pets like Tigers, venemous snakes and camen!! These are not pets!!! They kill people and then they kill the innocent animal that was just being a wild animal as it was born to be. We took God out of school and our young kids are committing suicide at alarming rates. Parents are too busy for their kids because we Americans have to have the best toys and keep up with appearances. Employers work you to death for as little as possible!!! I could go on all day!! I am different. I should say there are many good Americans doing their best to fix some of these issues but it’s hard when you don’t have enough support. I have dreamt about moving to another country for so long but I don’t have the funds to do it. I’m stuck in this horrible place. So I read and view pictures and videos of Sweden, Norway, Netherlands and Ireland all the time. I recently did a DNA ancestry test and I am 38% Scottish, I also have a small amount of Baltics, Eastern Europe and Wales in me. I was very excited to find that out. I knew I didn’t belong here but … well not much I can do. Thank you for the fun and interesting read!!!!!

Being half Swedish I found the article most interesting but I never knew the story of the Volvo cars and the North Koreans. I doubt that would happen in any other country.. Sweden is a beautiful country and seeing by car makes It very enjoyable especially if you rent a Volvo..
