Sweden, officially the Kingdom of Sweden, is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe. There are 10 million people in Sweden, of whom about 2 million are under the age of 18. Eighty-five percent of them live in cities.
Its rich diversity has made the Country instantly famous across the World. Swedes study and work hard but they also take their rest and relaxation seriously. So the fika – a coffee break that normally consists of coffee or tea, cookies or sweet buns, but can also include soft drinks, fruit and sandwiches – is a social institution and an important part of the national culture.
Swedes hold nature in high esteem, which is one reason why environmental issues are so important here. Drottningholm, Vasa museum, Sigtuna are some major attractions of Sweden.
