Sweden is far stranger than it looks on the map. From 267,570 islands and ancient forests to a town being moved because of an underground mine, this country is packed with geography facts that sound almost impossible.

In this video, we explore 30 insane geography facts about Sweden — from the frozen waters of the Bothnian Bay and the deepest point of the Baltic Sea to ancient coral reefs, massive asteroid craters, wild national parks, and a mountain that is actually getting shorter.

You'll discover the story behind Sweden's 9,550-year-old spruce, the strange border on Märket island, Sweden's underground iron ore mine in Kiruna, the giant Göta Canal, the mysterious Ales Stones, the ancient rock formations of Gotland, and the incredible post-glacial rebound along Sweden's coastline.
We'll also explore Sweden's extreme temperatures, Sarek National Park, Lake Vänern, Lake Vättern, the Siljan asteroid crater, Swedish forests, reindeer herding, and the unique geography of northern Sweden.
And finally, we look at one of the most unusual things about Sweden: allemansrätten, the right of public access to nature that allows people to hike, camp, swim, ski, cycle, and explore much of the country's natural landscape.

If you love geography, maps, Scandinavia, European geography, Swedish history, natural wonders, unusual places, and fascinating country facts, this one is for you.
