SWEDISH FACTBOOK
Population:5 Million
Monarch:King Oscar II
Prime Minister:E.G Bostrom
Other Political Figures:
Francis Weldheimer-Leader Of The Swedish Revival Movement
Economy:
Sweden has just industrialized and it is now among the top in the entire east of Europe. It supplies the countries of the east with raw iron. Most goes to Germany. The Swedes are now focusing on modernizing the military and refiting the navy. Unemployment has fallen to only 7%.
Military:
60 000 Infantry
440 000 Reserves (I know that seems high but Sweden works on the Home Guard system)
2 Battleships
3 Battlecuisers
5 Heavy Cruisers
9 Light Cruisers
11 Frigates
25 Destroyers
Military Info: Sweden works on the Home Guard principle. This means that it has a small standing army, but it can be expanded greatly in the case of war. Latly the Swedish Revivalists have pushed for a more agressive foreign policy that involves being joined in european affairs. The king is tending to lean in that direction also. The army is fitted with the newest weapons. The navy is small but modern. It cant come close to those of Germany and Britain but it is large enough to protect the coast from the smaller nations.
