    What’s the source for this?

    I’d like to see what the criteria for each event is tbh.

    And can we get one for the other “super powers” of the world?

        Map shows Sweden in Red… as in they have been meddled with but your list shows the only mention of Sweden as:

        In 1801, and again in 1815, the US aided Sweden in subjugating a series of coastal towns in North Africa, in the Barbary Wars. The stated reason was to crack down on pirates, but the wars destroyed the navies of Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco, and secured European and US shipping routes for goods and slaves in North Africa.

        So before 1900 and not in Sweden itself… Do you have another source that matches the map actually?

          Could be referring to the assassination of Olaf Palme, the Swedish PM who stood against US foreign policy, siding with Cuba, Vietnam, against apartheid south africa, against pinochet, etc. He was a target of P2 / gladio, and its possible the CIA had a hand in his assassination. It remains an unsolved murder.

          The list is sourced. What’s the difference between posting a link to it or posting it as a comment?
