Since everyone asked for it, here it is: the thread to discuss and learn about Swedish history.
If you need to catch up on parts of Swedens history, i can happily summarise it. Other than that, share your thoughts and questions in this board
> everyone asked for it
who cares about Sweden's history, it's not so great, only overrated af.
don't listen to the shitposters anon.
When and why did sweden start to become neutral in european affairs?
>>2212586
It became neutral after the napoleonic wars. It had lost Finland to russia but went under a union with norway. The reason for being neutral was that it was good economically and other than denmark, all possible targets were extremely strong. They presumably didn't want to invade denmark fearing it would cause more aggression.
I think all neutrality also just grew into a swedish mindset after all that neutral time.
>>2212586
After the loss during the northern war and the death of Karl XII, the new king decided to pursue a path of active neutrality (so they wouldn't lose any more territory)
>>2212586
In short: Sweden was poor and it was potentially bad economically with war
>>2212600
That might also be true, i'm not altogether excelentely informed about just that point of history
Anymore questions? Or thoughts

Our history is what makes Sweden worth saving, fucking amazing dood
>>2212633
You're worth saving because you have high IQ and Aryan facial features. In history you have done nothing except raid Western Europe sometimes, which, granted, is somewhat remarkable in itself. But you're called snowniggers because you innovate nothing and sit around doing nothing.
>>2212641
A large part of our history is just us (Sweden) vs Denmark, It's interesting how much they cucked us, before we decided to strike back and cuck them even more.
>>2212641
>You're worth saving because you have high IQ and Aryan facial features
They have neither though. Swedes look Asian because of Sammi people sex. Might as well let Jamals have Swedish girls.

What are you laughing at? He fucking DIED because of his atheist, left-wing beliefs.
The radical Odinist Breivik gunned him down, presumably many bullets were used.
>>2212775
Didn't know that. You're claim that we are Asian because of samis is ridiulous though

Netherlandish people look much more Aryan than Scandinavians. They are also taller.
Damn, I wish I was Netherlandish myself.
>>2212800
I don't want a race discussion here, ask or say something about swedish history or leave
>>2212803
Why are you so obsessed with your country's history? It's nothing interesting. I think all /his/torians would agree that Scandinavian history and culture are non-existent.
>>2212719
>Swedes look Asian
You're thinking of Finland you fucking idiot.
>>2212573
Have you read any sources about Swedish-Russian wars of 16 century? Can you list Russian leaders of these wars?
>>2212810
If late medievial history means all history, that would probably be right. We barely wrote anything down. But otherwise you're wrong, nonexistant culture is false so stop it immediately.
>>2212821
Don't know much about it, but here, there are 3 sweden-russia wars in the 16th century:

Questions/swedish history specific thoughts or GTFO
TFW Swedish, as in belonging to that state, but not Swedish as in the culture.

Landsförrädare, vafan är med dig? Du ska sänka 100tals års framgång pga vad som pågår idag
>>2212889
Vi har aldrig varit svenskar. Enda anledningen vi är svenska är att Gustav Adolf kunde erövra oss. Jag står bakom min kultur först och främst, och min stat näst.
>>2212626
>and vote alt-right.
>vote for an ideology that doesn't even know what it wants and is run by american mongrels with no history and culture of their own,
we talk about swedish history all of the time in middle east/islam threads.
>>2212991
That makes no sense
>>2213004
According to Reinfeldt(Conservative PM) Sweden belongs to the immigrants not the Swedes thus Swedish history is the Swedish immigrants history as they are inherently more Swedish.
>>2212573
I have a small question
How popular is your king? Is he well liked?
I'm asking because people seem to make fun of him calling him Knugen.
can an immigrant be a visible minority and be justified to call himself a swede?
>>2213012
He's a popular swedish meme. Very many swedish partys want to eventually abolish the monarchy but most swedes actually like the monarchy
>>2213029
>Very many swedish partys want to eventually abolish the monarchy
Why? Just because of tax?
>>2213040
They say It's undemocratic, but who the hell cares he doesn't have any power anyway. They don't value swedish culture very much
>>2213049
Also why is he a meme? just because he looks goofy?
>>2213062
I don't 100% know, i'm guessing because he's a large symbol of Sweden
>>2212573
What do you think about Bernadot? Any arguments that he wasnt British puppet?
>>2213490
You mean that french guy? No i don't have any arguments, i'd much rather have a swedish king with ancestral history in this country to be honest
