> Fun fact: Norway is not a member of the EU.

Which I think is a shame. Sweden and Norway together would have a net positive influence on modernizing law across the EU.

(I'm saying that as a German)

Sweden already is part of the EU.
I'm just saying that Sweden, Norway and Finland together would make an awesome couple; given how they overcame legislative issues and how they modernized their countries against all odds (with all that happened after 1808).

From a political perspective they're quick to adapt to a changing landscape.

Sweden and Finland are both in the EU but AFAIK there's not much policy alignment between them with regards to EU legislation.
