Norse and Danish vikings were relevant my dude.
>empire
O I am laffin
For you obviously because they were the ones who raided you and you wrote tales about your cuckoldry. It's kind of like how European history books have 99 pages about the Nazis and 1 page about Asia when discussing WW2.
You had your moment in the Sun Sven, an empire built on foreign mercenaries, and you could only keep it up by sucking up to the French, and even that couldn't save your colonies from the Dutch. Great empire.

Quantity < quality. Your entire "empire" has about the same GDP as the Swedish empire today.
t.oskuld
At least they'll have future compared to Sweden.
...
>swedish ""empire""
because you need lumber to build boats, only finland has that and we took them out of the game early
You built that empire with Finnish flesh. Remember that.
Brazil alone has a higher GDP than all of Scandinavia.
In the times of the Portuguese Empire it was one of the richest regions of the world, being the biggest sugar cane producer. That whole "Haiti jewel of the Europeans" thing is a meme compared to what we were
>8000$ gdp per capita
>muh favelas
>muh drugs
>Brazil
>rich
Is it because of your history of "empire" you are cucking yourself now, Sven? used to control most of scandinavia, nowadays you can't even control Malmo. SAD!
I'm talking about nominal GDP.
>favelas
>1600s
finnish education
and look what you've done with it. good going niggerinho
It's the monarchy's fault to have abolished the slavery
theres still a lot of wealth in brazil and many wealthy Brazilians
plenty of playboys studying English in my city at the moment
and I have stayed with friends over there too, i think (with comfortable wealth) brazil is much better place for party/freedom/girls than anywhere in the world
hey sao Paulo terra daranha ceu
Not with current trends. Tfw 45%ethnic Norwegians by 2100
>Brazil alone has a higher GDP than all of Scandinavia.
Barely, and Brazil constitutes 90% of the GDP of the "portuguese empire".
>a local empire
Holy shit Sweden, you never got any further out in the world?
You know, the definition of Scandinavia are our strong sailing history. Where is yours?
sweden is fucked. I feel sorry for you swedes, honestly.
what?
At that time Sweden didn't even exist.
We got cucked by the black death.
>we
You mean they
Portugal on the early days of its empire was the only one to effectively trade with India, and had various trading posts there and on Africa.
...
WE WUZ MERCHANTZ!
>filename
Top kek thx Nordic brother
This really
They/(we) tried America, got cucked by dutch
The black plague is the thing that put us behind sweden and denmark.
What part of the black DEATH is it that you people don't understand?
"""You""" were replaced by Danes and Portugese etc. sailors.
what was that about finnish education you dirty trannyloving aids central?
Some of us remained, but yes alot of foreigners replaced the dead ones.
Lol wut?
People died all over Europe, even Danes and Portuguese...
B-but because of the terrain, low resulting population and long distances, the power of the Norwegian kingdom almost completely vanished. Denmark being a small and flat country managed to "rebuild" quickly.
Also, Denmark having Greenland + other islands is a direct result of the Norwegian kingdom before the black death.
kek
Nobody here cares with education. You should know that.
>only finland has that
>lumber
WTF are you on about?
>norway
pretty relevant
>finland
mostly swamp
And you take credit for this why? Because the Portuguese enslaved your ancestors? Well done I guess.
Don't forget our hidden kingdom, Sven.
>fucking ice
good job sven
>my ancestors
well memed
Why arent Sweden and Canada better friends. You guys are basically the Canada of Europe
Except much of the Swedish fleet was built from imported lumber. You need wood and ore to make iron though, and this is probably the biggest advantage Sweden had in terms of natural resources over Norway and Denmark.
>conquer shitskins land
>achievement
Fucking ice with plenty of resources below it
When did sweden ever even make it into history books?
Norway and Finland might not be important but they get mentioned in WW2 history.
so basically Norway 2.0?
Do you really want our states to fucking encourage each other?
Also, main fucking diff is your screening process for immigrants (at least formerly); we accept the worst of the worst. Wouldn't want to send home any war criminals, rapits etc to their home countries where they risk the death penalty... so we take em instead. For one.
>tfw russians took our right arm
>we no longer have claims to the north-pole resources
70% of our history books is Swedish history
>america
>africa
>caribbean
>local
???
Typical Croat education? Or lack thereof?
Antarctica contains a shitload of natural resources.
And a possible subterranean paradise with nazi UFO's and shiiieeet. Who knows?
>100 year old nation
Silence you uncultured mongrel, sit the fuck down.
>basically the Canada of Europe
Not really. Oh, maybe. But then "real Sweden" (Stockholm area) would be Quebec calling everyone from other areas "not really [insert nationality]. Most 'real' Svens are incredibly rude and arrogant. So, more like 'Muricans - just without the power.
>Antarctica contains a shitload of natural resources.
actually didn't know, you learn something new every day i guess.
gib info on antartica resources plz
>his empire didn't even ethnically cleanse entire continents to colonize.
I don't know. Maybe because we are so far away from each other?
Oil, gas, coal and of course minerals.
Everything from iron and copper to titanium and uranium. Some gold and silver too.
Conquering autistic spear people = impressive
oy vey
If it were so easy why didn't you do it?
looking at your pic and your current situation it looks like you are withering away
also once the ice caps melt there's lots of land there. I've marked the approx. norwegian claim on this map.
Because we're in the worst geographical position on the planet?
Did that include the rising sea levels?
>literally born yesterday
>more history than all of scandinavia combined
>muh geographical location
If this were true the world would be ruled by Indians and Arabs. What builds empires is logistics and competence. Thats why you are useless.
>ethnically cleanse entire continents
that's why poo, niggers, native-americans, abos etc. exists...
I believe so
SD has a decent chance of winning though.
It'll be a nice stepping stone as PC takes a great hit, when that is not enough, we'll go even further.
Mone of you matter, nordics are subhuman
Abos and Native Americans are some of the smallest races around, where they use to rule continents.
Our history is best in our military.
It was hardcore in the 70s and it was hardcore in the 1700s. Also the thirty years war.
You're such an autist
Colonization had EVERYTHING to do with your Geographical position, literally EVERYTHING for example, look at Iberia, and now look at Poland.
>If this were true the world would be ruled by Indians and Arabs.
No, Europeans had the technology, Arabs and Indians didn't.
All i was saying is that for example Nazi Germany was more impressive than your empire, never said it was shit.
pretty much this
read about this in highschool, something along the lines of norway being way more centered around agriculture+the plague for some reason hitting us harder basically made norway collapse. most of our nobles died, which made it easier for the danish king to maintain control
>geographical location doesn't matter
The US had a massive amount of natural ressources and is now a superpower
Australia didn't and it's 'ok'
>Australia and the UK are on polar opposites of the world
GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION
Nah, what wins is how capable you are as a civilization.
Not even going to argue with you, just proves how ignorant and stupid you are.
America has had centuries more time to develop and hundreds of millions of more immigrants coming from Europe.
aka you're wrong and cant think of a counter argument.
>It was hardcore in the 70s and it was hardcore in the 1700s. Also the thirty years war.
"we will fight to the last finn!" Seriously fix your military NOW. I don't want to come and fight an ISIS insurgency in sweden, but I'll do if it comes to that
Antarctica is Australian clay.
You guys can have whatever's at the north pole.
t. Ali som importerar ryska horor
Both SD and M are thinking about an alliance (the 2nd and 3rd largest parties) to beat out the cuckverment. As long as SD wins in 2018, we'll have a decent chance to start pulling us out of it.
Cucks are loud, but it plays in our favor.
>aka you're wrong and cant think of a counter argument.
You literally claimed that colonization had nothing to do with your geographical position meanwhile ALL the greater colonization powers had all of their money on their navy.
Kill yourself, faggot.
You sure you arent just salty that you havent accomplished much since Hamlet, except beer?
get PU'd by denmark swedenigger
It doesn't. Europe is in the worst place i the world to colonize except maybe NZ and Polynesia. Yet we came out ahead. More so then anyone. And any idea of "you need the sea to colonize" is retarded. The Ottomans and the Russians did fine without it. You're just not a group of people capable of doing anything of note.
I had no idea swedish education was so bad
anyway, Brazil is the 8th largest economy in the world. The problem is that we have the most corrupted country in the world and we live in strong unequality. But don't worry about my country, it is actually getting better since we are currently sweeping out all the corruption and I believe we are founding a new country. Worry about your country getting cucked by the islam, since your population is so small and may even disappear in the next decades
>It doesn't.
Think what ever makes you feel better, but the truth is that it actually does. Sorry.
>literally just keep saying it does it does it does without raising any argument what so ever.
Another example of the incompetence of your kind.
Brazil had 8th largest populstion in workd as well
Why is Scandinavia so irrelevant throughout history compared to the rest of Europe ?
>Provided an argument
>Doesn't a make counter argument with actual facts
YOU STUPID INCOMPETENT NIGGER HAH AH AHHA
...
Yeah, we just allowed protestantism to be a thing, very irrelevant indeed.
>Implying thats a good thing
>taking credit for Protestantism
>what is the >Holy >Roman >Empire
Also, how exactly is that a good thing ?
Not sure if ironic shitposting or 9000 chromosomes
