Sweden is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe which borders Norway, Finland and, via a bridge tunnel, Denmark. A constitutional monarchy where the king serves a fairly symbolic role, Sweden is well regarded internationally as an example of social democracy and good governance. Sweden’s human rights record is generally very good indeed, though concerns have been raised over denying access to treatment for people who use drugs.
