Did the vikings ever conquer Sweden?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Swedes were Vikings, along with the Danes and Norwegians. The Vikings, having over-looted the places nearest to them - France, England etc, went further afield as traders and conquerors, getting as far as Baghdad in the east, and North East Canada and America in the west. They made two failed attempts at capturing Constantinople, and successfully established the Kingdom of Sicily and Naples. They penetrated Russia - the first Prince of Kiev, forefather of the Czars, was Rurik (Hroerekr). Having taken everything in northern France, they had perforce to settle down and produce something and became the Normans (Norsemen). William the Conquerer's Norse forbears had occupied the area a mere hundred years before he crossed the Channel to grab England.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sweden is a beautiful country that is rich in culture. Some of the best tourist sites in Sweden are:

* Stockholm, the country's capital, is home to many cultural treasures. Old Town is a quaint stretch that boats preserved historic buildings and cobblestone streets. Österlånggatan and Västerlånggatan are pedestrian streets filled with vendors and boutiques. While in Stockholm, you can also visit the Palace Museum and City Hall.

* Take a boat ride to Drottningholm Palace and see where the Royal Family of Sweden lives. You can also see a play at the Royal Theatre, where 18th century plays are performed the way they were hundreds of years ago.

* Visit one of the 16 glassworks shops in the southern province of Småland and see this interesting craft in action * Children will love going to Santaworld, a Christmas theme park, in Mora.

Are Swedish meatballs really authentic Swedish meals?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Italian (imo)

It really depends on how you intend on serving the meatballs: Swedish meatballs are intended to be served unaccompanied covered with a sour cream based brown gravy, Italian meatballs are intended to be served over spaghetti, vermicelli, linguine, etc. with a pasta sauce (e.g. tomato, cheese, pesto). The spices of each type of meatballs are different and using one type of meatballs for the purpose of the other would produce clashing flavors.
