@ThePatricco Ohhh fan glömde fan me det :) men jag är ändå ganska stolt att vi är ett land med en ganska rik historia :)

[Faxe90Swe]

Finnish national anthem: written by Johan Ludvig Runeberg, Finland-Swede, known as Finlands national poet (yeah, very national).

Kalevala: compiled by Elias Lönnrot, Finland-Swede.

The Tales of Ensign Stål, an nationalistic epic poem about a Finland-Swede, also written by the Finland-Swede Runeberg.

Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, "The Father of the Modern Country of Finland", led the whites in the civil war, CIC during ww2 and sixth president. Finland-Swede.

I'm impressed.

@SocialistMetalHead Glöm inte och plusa på alla krig som hade kommit med Ryssland.

Jag tror om Sverige hade vunnit stora nordiska kriget och haft kvar dom områdena fram in på 1900 - talet tror jag att det hela hade rasat i ett stort inbördeskrig som man kan se på Balkan eller som i Tjeckoslovakien delats upp demokratiskt. Men ja ja jag kan ha fel också jag kommer ändå aldrig få reda på det :(

@SvarteJack

Made it understand that we sucked?! Sweden hade one of the best armies in Europe and we managed to defeat both Denmark and Poland several times WHILE fighting Russia. The only reason we lost was because of General Winter (The Russian Winter) and because of that coward Adam Ludwig Lewenhaupt. I piss on his grave.

@SvarteJack Um, Sweden during "Stormakts tiden", was one of the strongest nations. They defeated Denmark,Poland,Norway and Germany. Just Russia, they had so many damn millitia they won.

At 3:14 you said that Russia was the ally of Prussia, it was not, Russia was Austria's ally in the 7 years war. Prussia might have conquared more Austrian terrritorry (which would have not been a bad thing).

That sweden lost all theese wars during the 18th century is in a way a good thing for us. It made us understand that we sucked and made us have a neutral aproach to the rest of the world, keeping us out of a lot of shitty wars. WW2 for example.
