In the election you can also vote on a independent representative from your region. Each independent representative gets a seat in parliament and can vote for or against new laws passed. The new law needs to win by a majority for the law to pass. There is a total of 76 seats for independent representatives.

New Swedish political parties usually consist of up to 10 people. One of them is the person actually running for president, if they win they will hold the power to pass laws for voting in parliament. The rest of the party are people holding similar ideological beliefs which help advise the "leader" of the party and potentially help the political campaign as well.
Capitals
Due to its history and creation, New Sweden has four capital cities. These cities are Stockholm, Helsinki, Oslo and Copenhagen. Iceland's capital was excluded due to it being inaccessible by land.
