Sweden

Capital: Stockholm

Sweden covers about 450,295 square kilometres. It is the largest Nordic country and the fifth largest in Europe.
Between 1850 and 1910, more than one million Swedes emigrated, most of them to the United States.
Sweden runs from about 55 to 69 degrees north, so its climate varies widely from the south to the far north.
Stockholm is built on fourteen islands. Its old town, Gamla stan, sits on the central island.
