    Sweden bombed Libya and occupied Afghanistan and had some people in Congo I think. Sweden having 200 years of peace is a lie. Sure, we didn't get to experience war at home, but we sure as hell murdered other people abroad.

      That's why I said "by certain metrics", doesn't qualify in the least as defending anything, and is not a valid justification for having a standing army.

          Yeah, and that means they will have a permanent obligation to spend money on a military that doesn't discernably do anything to defend the country in practice.
