this November we have Senate and House Elections

however not all Senators are up for election

In sweden the general elections are held every 4th year...
4 year terms, works quite ok

so some are just running elections for one incumbent

Pres has 4 year term and can only be Pres. for 2 terms

Supreme Court Justices are in for life

or retirement

we have no term limits and no president. The natinal parliament elects the primeminister after a general election is held

Luckily our Constitution prevents shit like what Putin does in Russia

parliamentary "representative" democracy is yours i think

yes

however we are also a monarchy

We are called a republic and democracy interchangably

so like the UK?

but in difference to the UK the swedish monarch holds no power

ah

UKs holds very little

so yours is entirely ceremonial?

Yes

can they run for office?

Alot of taxmoney for some cermonies and representation though

no

k

so they are the face

the Monarch must not interfere with the political system

essentially

good

partially

the king represents the nation only within certain events and occations

i think UK the monarchy can influence but not make decisions

yea

Swedish royal history has some badass moments btw

it does

it also has it's stains of blood

def

just like our democracy has it's history of race biology..

I listen to Sabaton and i like their historical metal lel

it is some good stuff!!

Ever listened to Hammerfall?

think so

they're not focused on history like sabaton but they do produce some neat power metal
