      Hej is a common greeting in Dalarna country, Sweden. We present to you some interesting information about Sweden.

      In case you are from Sweden and wish to report inconsistencies, please reply to this topic.

      Dalecarlian is a group of dialects spoken in Dalarna country, Sweden. Sweden is a Scandinavian nation with thousands of coastal islands and inland lakes, along with vast boreal forests and glaciated mountains.

      Here are some of the interesting facts about Sweden:

      1. Did you know that Sweden shares a lot of similarities with Norway like their history and culture?

      2. The Swedish people love to recycle. Only 1% of waste ends up in landfills with 50% being recycled or composted and 49% being incinerated for energy.

      1. Most people are probably aware that Sweden has a lot of forests, but the fact is that 2/3 of the total country’s land area is covered by forest with a total area of 280,650km2.

      2. Did you know that Sweden is the 5th biggest country in Europe in terms of area? The total land area is 447,435 km2. But despite that, Sweden has one of the lowest populations per square kilometer in all of Europe.
