Answer 5

Sweden has no official nick name. "Sweden" does not mean anything but is the English translation of the swedish word "Sverige".

"Sverige" is actually two words: "Svea" (which is the name of the people that used to live in the Stockholm and Helsinki areas thousands of years ago) and "Rike" which means "kingdom" or "country"
