Sweden's geographic location, with access to fjords, greater distance from enemies, fertile land, and mountainous terrain, all contributed to its relative success compared to Denmark and Norway. The fjords provided natural defense and opportunities for trade, while being further away from enemies like England and Russia allowed for more security. The fertile land and inland rivers provided for better agricultural opportunities and resources, while the mountainous terrain helped protect Sweden from potential invasions. All of these factors combined likely contributed to Sweden's greater success compared to its neighboring countries.
