The Swede lusts for Denmark. Once the Gulf stream ceases and winters in northern Europe gets much colder the godless Swedish hordes will stream across the frozen straits beset on conquest as they have done before.
They will fail however, and that's when the danish counterstrike launches. The Kalmarunion will rise again! But with a better flag.
plan for invasion of Sweden
Step 1: Wait for Norway to run out of oil
Step 2: Now that Norway has no oil, they'll rejoin Denmark if we ask nicely
Step 3: Pincer movement (flawless strategy)
Step 4: Declare Kalmar, use it as an excuse to get out of the EU
Step 5: Kill all the swedish nobles
Step 6: Argue that the families are all so intermingled that technically all the royal families are somewhat swedish
Step 7: Kill them
Sweden shares a maritime border with Russia and spends a bunch of money (relatively, nothing compared to the psychosis of the US, but still too much) on maintaining a navy in case anything ever happens. Whenever there's a slow news day Scandinavian papers will have a story about a russian submarine being detected in swedish waters or something
Every 100 years the ghost of Carolus Rex possesses the Swedish PM and demands they butcher their way to Moscow to establish the Great Northern Empire. 7th times the charm, lads!
According to my poli sci professor, Sweden does have a military but it's mostly used for peacekeeping missions. Granted, it's from a pro-global north POV so take it with a grain of salt.
Who tf is Sweden even fighting
Did the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth reform or what
Did the Estonians start worshipping a deer god again

You know what? Fuck it. If both forces have an all volunteer army, I support Sweeden vs Denmark.Changed my mind thinking about it for 20 seconds because the military would interrupt people who are just trying to have brunchEhhhh... I could be convinced
Playing the Sweden tutorial in Victoria 3, can confirm this wholly

These are old, and at that time Sweden were bombing Libya and occupying Afghanistan.
