You're talking about two different things here. Vikings and the kingdom of Sweden. Vikings were the first Europeans to reach American continent and they were raiding also far away towns. Sweden was one of the world superpowers (if you can call them that hundreds of years ago) at it's prime, but their overseas coloniasation politics ended up failing miserably, eventually ending up colonialising only Finland - until Russia conquered it from Sweden. |
Then why should Swedes take the fall for everything the Vikings did collectively? I mean, the Norwegians were vikings too, but they ended up discovering a massive oil deposit, so they're rich now. That doesn't sound like karma to me.
(Wow, an actual Finn.)
