even if swedden was the best chess country in the world (it isn't) how would that be an advantage? all that matters is you own hard work

and chess.com

I'm sorry, but the strongest chess players generally are from russia. I don't know if i'm missing something, but there isn't even one swedish player at the top 100 fide rating list. I think your dad said that if you would live in any other country, sorry to dissapoint you. Also, if statisticly sweden has the strongest chess players, it doesn't mean you have chances to be better than anyone here. And if i wanna say the truth, what you said is racist, incorrect, and total bulshit.

It's certainly not racist.

how to use this to your advantage? well, assuming its accurate, I'd say stay in Sweden and continue to reap the benefits of the Sweden advantage.

So who are the strongest Swedish players nowadays? Some FMs and IMs? Tongue Out

waffllemaster

Oh yeah, and Jon Speelman.

Ferdinand Hellers is currently the highest-rated Swedish player at 2599. Did any of you know this guy? Nils Grandelius is somewhat more known, and will soon break 2600, but that's about it.

Hard to be known unless you've been in the top 10 at some point, or written a good book.
