During the Polish-Swedish war, Sweden conquered the city of Bydgoszcz and renamed it as Bromberg.

Bromberg later became part of the Kingdom of Prussia, changed hands a few more times (including a short period of Napoleonic rule), before it finally became Polish again after World War I. The Polish government reinstated the old name of the city, deciding to let Bydgoszcz be Bydgoszcz.

If you're pretending to be Swedish don't use the name "Splenda". They'll know you are an artificial Sweden-er

TIL that Swedish Fish are actually shaped like Sweden, not fish.

Yeah, it turns out the fish part is a red herring.

Swedish joke

My dad was telling me about how my cousin in Sweden ate some glass the other day. Turns out glass means "ice cream" in Swedish, and he went on to explain that "Swedes who live in glass houses shouldn't snow cones." That was about the hardest I've ever groaned.
