Small population wise*

Thought they already had it. Maybe that was Norway..

Not sure.

I would like it here in sweden though.

Not sure how it would be planned. Maybe how the south koreans has it, or that everyone after gymnasium need to do service.

from 2017

not sure if it's still a thing

That was randomly selected

Some people were invited

My friend got invited to. She said yes, But didn’t get qualified

But I would like mandatory service for every (healthy) citizen.

We have conscription

But its like

They ask you

If tou want to join

You can decline

But if too many decline

You get forced

I’m not sure if they’ve ever needed to force people tho

I think the military tries to invite around 4-8 K people every year

Might be wrong on the number tho

Why you don't you join?

too young

I’m gonna as soon as I finish gymnasium.

Which is in 3 years

Does Swedish military give you a pretty good deal?

Not sure. I don’t really care tho tbh.

Our duty to protect our country.

But I would guess its pretty good

you might get to do joint exercises with Americans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArZWQLaPnoI

America does a lot to assist scandinavian militaries, providing training and consultation

One of the members of the state counsil I work at from time to time had excercises with americans

Afghanistan, and Somalia I think?

So I guess he did some work with Americans at least

Not really sure what I would join in the military

Not the navy at least. Open waters are bloody terrifying.

big thing is whether you want to deploy or not

I do

Same
