Greetings Swedish Citizens,
I am the President of Denmark. Even when my country is conquered I still wield political power. I gained the Presidency of Denmark after having been in the country for 3 weeks. I have some insight on how to gain political power. It requires a little intelligence on your part. I know what you're thinking, you're thinking:
"But Grev Per, I joined the biggest party in Sweden, what more could you ask?"
To use your brain, idiot.
To get marginal political power in Sweden you need to play it smart. There is no way you will become president in 3 weeks here. First you need to be smart about using your numbers. Look at you, you're 1 person. What were you thinking? You were probably thinking "oh hey, this party is huge, if I want power I have to join it."
Well no shit, you thought that and so did 800 other uses. What exactly did it get you? Nothing. Man think a little bit.
Look around on the political landscape. There are places where 1 person can make a difference. You could join one of the other top 5 parties. The MSAP or the DNS party for example. However in the MSAP you would still be only 200 people, and despite having enough people for 5 people in every city, they can still barely manage to get 1 mayor. However if you were smart you might think about seeing where they have candidates and where they don't. And join that party or move there. Any of the top 5 parties have this problem.
However many of the top 5 parties are silently struggling through what all of Sweden is. The consequence of making intense membership campaigns and then not being able to keep 2/3rds of those who joined. They are going down in membership, and have been for 2 weeks. Now this is good and bad for you. If you are still active you might gain slightly more relevance as an individual by joining one of the shrinking ones. You might be able to help turn it around. Or you might join a sinking ship.
The two fastest growing parties are Purjoløk Ops and my own party, Danish/German Independence Now Party. Both are pretty much polar opposites, and neither might be suitable for your own concerns. Purjoløk Ops in my opinion comes off as rather immature, however if all you want is war, then it's probably the right party for you to support. On the other hand what's the chances of you wanting a free Germany or a free Denmark? The advantage of joining either of us I suppose is the chance that you might someday get a priviledged part in either Germany or Denmark. Both areas are relatively unpopulated compared to Sweden so the level of activity you need to put out would be less. There is also the Ubuntu Party that stands for independence for the occupied nations but in a way that is probably more palatable for a Swede.
What it comes down for you is to decide quite simply, where will you get the most results for the least activity? It won't be in FBS. It probably won't be in the MSAP. You need to go further down and take a gamble, you need to hope that others will join you. Surely this article is convincing enough.
In essence, the maximum way to exploit the parliamentary system here is to ensure that no party has absolute majority (that no party has 50% of the vote). To do that, you either got to join another party or vote for another party.

No Religion, nice one
\"I joined the biggest party in Sweden, what more could you ask?\"
To use your brain, idiot. \"
lol. Good advice that goes for other countries: stop joining the biggest party, like a herd of dumb sheeps.
I joined the biggest party. Barely two months later I\'m a mayor and I have a chance of joining congress. It all comes down to being active and letting people know your opinions. Interesting article, although I mostly disagree.
I joined the biggest party to. I also was extremely active.
This is not about being extremely active. This is about maximizing as little activity as possible to get the biggest result.
There\'s no way that\'s truly possible in FBS anymore. Too many people who know too many things. Besides you had to move to a recently occupied territory. That\'s a rather rare option most of the time... Certainly right now.
Moving to an area and winning the election by being the only one running and voting sounds like maximum results with minimal efforts to me. =o)
Interesting article. I have to agree with Algaroth though. I am piolitically interested, however, I haven\'t joind any party... You have to separate the political \"career\" from the actual numbers of followers. Algaroth, he has been a follower but through his day to day struggle he has made himself a career. You, Grev Per on the other side is not a follower, however you have probably as many followers as algaroth had when he was voted mayor (probably more, but you get the idea) and you have made a career as the underdog so to speak...
But it\'s true, what makes you president in Denmark makes you just a mayor in Sweden. You are living proof of that Grevvy. But I believe that if you are persistent enough you can go wherever you want.
Jag Gjorde exakt samma sak som Algaroth, men jag blev borgmästare i Stockholm, i stället för i en liten stad. Vad har du att säga om det då Grev Per?
Hador väljer jag antagligen in till kongressen och runda bordet, dit har inte ens du kommit under ditt konstanta kämpande Grev. Gå med dig för en väg till makten? Tvärtom Grev.
Visar man sig kunnig och att man har något att tillföra ser jag det, sedan får ni skriva en bra presentation här:

Am I not making myself clear enough...?
Grev Per om jag förstår dig rätt så säger du att jag är inte vem som helst? Alltså är jag speciell, vilken fin komplimang, om än så var det lite svårt att lista ut att det var en komplimang, men jag är som sagt inte vem som helst heller.
Tror snarare att han menar att du blev borgmästare just för att det är så pass många i FBS som bor i Stockholm😁
Falu Red kom inte här och hitta på massa strunt, självklart är Grev Per god innerst inne, vilket han visar med sina dolda komplimanger.
Grev, ignorerade du min post eller?
good article
Boring, Grve Pär, you are good.
But Power in this contry?
I don´t believe that.
Most of the citizens of Sweden are just flocks of sheeps; people who come directly from various \"Help Sweden conquer the world\" forums, takes directives and then returns to RL. I\'m not even interested in that kind of people. I\'m interested in the 25% of this country who votes three times a month, who writes great articles and who really want to PLAY the game and make others play it. Where\'s the political debates? Where are the struggles for power? FBS has won that by shear numbers, not political activism.
