Top Ten Things Sweden is Best Known For

I see this has beacome a popular trend so I should just do a similar list too, but about my home country of course! Without further ado, let's start!
The Top Ten
1 IKEA IKEA is a Swedish multinational group with its headquarters in Delft, Netherlands. Since 2008, IKEA has been the world's largest furniture retailer.

One of the best furniture companies of all time! The founder of the company sadly also died this year. R.I.P

Are you really saying a Youtuber is more famous than IKEA? Seriously?!?

2 ABBA ABBA are a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972 by members Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.

Best music in Sweden

Swedish pop group

3 Stockholm Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and the most populous urban area in the Nordic countries. It has the most populous urban area in Sweden as well as in Scandinavia.

How was this not number one? It's kind of the capital of the country.

4 Alfred Nobel Alfred Bernhard Nobel was a Swedish chemist, engineer, inventor, businessman, and philanthropist. He held 355 different patents, dynamite being the most famous. He owned Bofors, which he redirected from its previous role as primarily an iron and steel producer to a major manufacturer of cannon and other armaments.

Alfred Nobel invented the dynamite and founded the Nobel price that would each year on December 10th be given to the people that have done the biggest favour for the world! One of the things Sweden is the most known for

He is best regarded for his work in Electronic Music during the 2010s in which his works have charted among the Top 40 Radio and for his influence towards 2010's contemporary Electronic musicians.

22 Variety In Landscapes

Most countries in the north are kinda restricted to one type of landscape. Denmark has a lot of plains, Norway is very hilly, Iceland has a lot of volcanoes and no forests at all, and Finland has tons of forests and lakes. Sweden on the other hand has all of those except for volcanoes and it makes for some great adventuring. Plains in the south and central, mountains in the north, and forests and lakes a bit all over the country
