Hammerfall and Sonata Artica came from there, seems like an awesome place with awesome music.

Now, now, I go to a so called snobschool too.
And we have the hardest to get grades in the town too, apparently.
And I have a fucking MVG in English!
Well I'm going the IB-program, where everything IS IN ENGLISH! Math, Physics, Biologi, History, everything except Swedish (duh) and third language (because we share those lessons with everyone else in the school)

It's my home country. Our winter lasts from November to April, and our movies generally suck. Other than that, there ain't much to complain about, could be a lot worse.

edit: I also get the picture that Swedes (and Scandinavians in general) are much better at English than the rest of Europe. Courtesy of not dubbing movies and/or games.

I love Swedish women and Swedish metal. Ikea is probably okay or something too.
Just please take Opeth away from Roadrunner, they're ruining the bamd.

Dunno about Hammerfall, but SA is definitely Finnish.

But you're right, Sweden has possibly the best metal in the world.

Opeth, In Flames, Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Ensiferum... They are all made of awesome.

I am from Sweden, my family is from Sweden, all my friends are from Sweden, my girfriend is from Sweden (with German backround though). And I like all of them.
So I must say I like people from Sweden.

Sweden is cool they are the home of truly awesome metal bands!

Plus I hear that the Swedish military is properly funded so they have a military with better equipment than the USA. Shame you don't see much Swedish equipment around, the Gripen and stealth boats.
Feels a bit unecessary since we've never been in a real war :p

I was born there, so I'm pretty biased towards it. Personally, the happiest time of my life was spent in Sweden. Stockholm is beautiful, the public transport is excellent, the government actually takes care of its people, the parks and lakes are a fantastic place to spend your time, and they take in more refugees than any other country in the world.

It's not the freest country on Earth, though. I mean, you have free speech, and you're not exactly banned or prohibited from doing anything, but, for example, the government believes motorcycles aren't safe, so they make it really expensive for anybody to buy a motorcycle. You can still get one if you really want it, but they've just discouraged you from buying it.

I was in a project group with a bunch of Swedes. Arrogant SOBs if you ask me. That and the curse of Ikea.

I work in tourism and i work with lots of people from Sweden. They are nice people (most of them) although some are a bit stuck up. The girls are beautiful although they all look the same (just trying to be honest)

I like Sweden. I love your meatballs and IKEA, all the furniture in my room is from IKEA, that stuff lasts for centuries. Also fjords, fjords are awesome. And vikings.

But still, you're not the coolest Scandinavian nation. That would be Finland:

Yeah.

I'm British and I love Sweden. Been there five times now, pretty much in all seasons.

To say all girls are hot would be a lie. To say a large proportion of the girls are hot would be my own brilliant perception. Everyone's friendly there, they speak fantastic English, their accent is cool, food's great, cities are nice, landscape is amazing!

I have nothing but good things to say about that country. :)

Don't forget Sabaton!
And yes I'm from Sweden myself, and regarding the "hot girls"-topic, I myself find that Eastern Europe have the hottest ones. But Sweden is pretty awesome, and despite some swedes english dialect we guys and gals from sweden have a very high standard of our English skills.
