Sweden (Sverige) stretches down the eastern side of the Scandinavian Peninsula, covering about 173,860 square miles (450,295 km²). Dense pine and spruce forests cover more than half the land, around 100,000 lakes are scattered across it, and the wild mountains of Lapland rise in the far north, where the midnight sun shines in summer.

Its most famous natural landmark is Kebnekaise in Lapland, the highest mountain at about 6,880 feet (2,097 m), now that its glacier-topped southern peak has melted lower than the rocky northern one. The moose, often called the king of the forest, is a well-loved national symbol, and around 300,000 of them roam the woods.

Brown bears, wolves and lynx live in the northern forests, reindeer are herded by the Sámi people across Lapland, and seals and seabirds gather in the Stockholm archipelago. The Laponian Area and the High Coast are among Sweden's UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Did You Know? The land along Sweden's High Coast has risen about 940 feet (286 m) since the weight of the last ice sheet melted away, the highest such rise known anywhere on Earth.
