Welcome
to Sweden
|
| Sweden,
officially the Kingdom of Sweden, is a Nordic country on the Scandinavian
Peninsula in Northern Europe. It is surrounded by Norway (west), Finland
(northeast), the Skagerrak, Kattegat and Öresund straits (southwest)
and the Baltic Sea (east). It has maritime borders with Denmark, Germany,
Poland, Russia, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, and it is also linked to
Denmark (southwest) by the Öresund Bridge. It has been a member of
the European Union since 1995. Its capital city is Stockholm. |
| At 449,964
km² (173,720 square miles), Sweden is the third largest country in
Western Europe. Sweden has a low population density except in its metropolitan
areas; 84 percent of the population lives in urban areas, which take up
only 1.3 percent of the total land area. The citizens enjoy a high standard
of living and the country is generally perceived as modern and liberal,
with an organizational and corporate culture that is non-hierarchical and
collectivist compared to its Anglo-Saxon counterparts. Nature conservation,
environmental protection and energy efficiency are generally prioritized
in policy making and embraced by the general public in Sweden |

GOTHENBURG HOTELS
|
|
| Gothenburg, or Göteborg,
southwestern Sweden. The country's chief seaport and second largest city,
it lies along the Göta River estuary, about 5 mi (8 km) above the
Kattegat. Founded in 1603, the city was destroyed in the Kalmar War with
Denmark (1611 – 13) but was refounded in 1619. Many of the early inhabitants
were Dutch, who built urban canals and laid out the city centre. |
| A prosperous period began with the
completion of the Göta Canal (1832) and the start of a transoceanic
shipping service. It retains some historic architecture, and a moat still
encircles the old part of the city. The port's principal exports are automobiles
(Volvo), ball bearings, and paper. |
