→‎My edit: Sweden is large
Line 73: Line 73:     
* Removed the text saying that Sweden is a big country in western Europe. Who wrote that? Could that person please explain what he meant with that? Both the population and the land size are small compared to nearly all other western European countries. One thing that Sweden do is, is a country of major influence worldwide, but finding a source explicitly saying that would be hard to come by.

:: In terms of land size, Sweden is actually a large western European country. At 450 000 square kilometers, Sweden is larger than Germany (350 000) and Poland (310 000) and smaller than France (550 000) and Spain (500 000). According to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_outlying_territories_by_area|this list] on Wikipedia, Sweden is the 55th largest country/outlying territory in the world. --[[User:Avfall|Avfall]] 14:09, 12 October 2007 (EDT)
