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
How far north do you have to go before you reach the Swedish equivalent of the American South?
>>2233684
Culturally? The south (mainly Skåne) is very conservative.
Is dying due to Muslim hordes.
>>2233684
The central parts are known as the bible belt
Norrland is the only good part of Sweden. Prove me wrong.
Pro-tip: You can't.
>>2233684
if you go far north enough you will find strange folks
Have anyone here read 'Karolinerna' by Verner Von Heidenstam? I started reading it but I have an old copy of it and the language is really confusing.
Is it worth buying a newer release?

I don't know. I still find new places in this country every year that makes me love it more. But I think we can all agree Stockholm is the worst city(except for the museums).

As a Swede I gotta say that most of Swedish history is quite dry and undramatic.
When did the Swedes find the native Sami people, and what was their relation to them? I know that in the WW2 period some bad shit happened, but I'm clueless before that.

Wasn't there a dude that burned a king's family alive after inviting them to a feast in good will and then assumed the throne? That sounds like some Game of Thrones shit right there.
>The blood eagle is a ritualized method of execution, detailed in late skaldic poetry. According to the two instances mentioned in the Sagas, the victim (always a member of a royal family) was placed prone, the ribs severed from the vertebral column with a sharp implement and the lungs pulled through the opening to create a pair of “wings”.

Probably. Most of it is just petty squabbles, border disputes in the baltic region and hostilities with Denmark.
>>2239264
realistically, what percent of swedes aren't white/native to sweden?
>>2233677
Why did so many Swedes leave Sweden in the late 19th/early 20th century for the US?

Opportunity.
>>2233677
The "history" of Sweden pretty much ended when Russians decided that they fancied a port on the Baltic sea.

>Stockholm is the worst city
Stockholm is beautiful though
