Date: July 28th, 2026 11:25 AM Author: Smell the Glove (Poasting Feuds) My two nominees are Portugal and Sweden. Obviously the further you go back Portugal takes it with the whole Age of Exploration shit. But Sweden invented Zyn, pop music, furniture, matches that don't explode, and file sharing. It's gotta be close! (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5887034&forum_id=2)#50029495) |

Date: July 28th, 2026 11:36 AM Author: Smell the Glove (Poasting Feuds) ABBA, Ace of Base, Robyn, and virtually every major hit by Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Britney Spears, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Ariana Grande, and The Weeknd were written by a Swede. Country with 10 million people account for a massive percentage of American pop music. In deference to Norway, they wrote most of Rhianna's bangers.

And despite that, they are the undisputed POTUS and driving force of world history, civilization, commerce, and industry from, let's say, 1588 (defeat of the Spanish Armada) until they decided to give it all up circa 1945.
