Because if they hadn't they probably would have found themselves a belligerent very quickly. Germany had demonstrated in Belgium and Holland that it would not respect neutrality if there was something it wanted. Michael Montagne

AnswerIn June 1941 Germany demanded to transport 18 000 soldiers on swedish railroads(and transport of wounded German soldiers back to Norway), Sweden said yes to this demand but we only agreed to it once and we did, in July same year Germany demanded again to transport soldiers this time Sweden refused.

and as the swedish military was gaining strenght Sweden started to say no to more German demands.

Although it can be discussed whether Sweden was neutral or not during the Second World War, just because of this point.

they didnt hav a very big army so did not risk war____________________
