1. Glad to help improve your understanding of human affairs by helping you understand how countries are judged. BTW, I never mentioned conquering other nations - that is YOUR Strawman, not mine.
Judged by who? Just because you define a country's worth that way doesn't mean everyone else does. The OP never asked what historically great contributions Sweden has given to the world. Of course, they gave us ABBA, which was a great contribution to mankind!

2. Yes, Greece and the Roman Empire WERE great nations in their time - proof that my statement is correct.
Greece and Rome were also extremely oppressive, corrupt, and militaristic (more so Rome). I don't consider military dominance and conquering the world to be a virtuous trait. You must be Republican.
I grew up in the middle east and I was attacked by one when I was only 9 years old. One of the men threw a board at me with nails, it hit my back. I tried to hide it from my mother but she found it when she gave me a bath. I had no idea how bad it was but was told it was nothing but puncture wounds on my back.
Also one muslim thought it would be hilarious to slaughter a lamb in front of me. I can on for pages abut them. Just a sick sick sick violent bunch of people.
I also spent time in the middle east when I was a child.
Nothing like this ever happened to me.

I always found the darker haired Swedish girls more attractive.

10 million people live there. It's quite habitable.
Sure, but how do you get real education out of the American system, which suffers from widespread ideological corruption?

How did you come to conclude that there's a correlation between their behavior and their religion?
There are lies, damn lies and statitics. There are also statistics that can actually shed light on solutions to problems if carefully analyzed.
A bit on involuntary minorities:
What if we actually made an effort in this country to turn involuntary minorities into voluntary minorities?
If you want to go to a forum where people seriously analyze statistics you need to go to the sports forum, here people just find some statistic that, on the surface, supports their political ideology and throw it out there.

Why is it people care more about the success of their favorite sports team than the success of our nation? Why is it most people could care less about a serious analysis of our nations problems?

Liberals always talk about how great Sweden is, and how America should be more like Sweden. Do you believe Sweden is the greatest nation on earth?
It had potential, but it is heading south real quick...I think it is too late to turn it around.
