One for Mikael...

First time I saw a disclaimer like this on a webshop;

http://shavingroom.se/ said:
Force Majeur
In the event of war, natural disaster, industrial action, agency decisions and similar events beyond our control which is not reasonably foreseeable, and affects the agreements and commitments on our part, which means that we can not keep that agreement / pledge, shall constitute grounds that we released from our obligations to fulfill that contract. Below are links to the Consumer Agency and the ARN, where you can read more detail on Consumer Purchases and Distance Contracts mm. In case of disagreement, we always follow ARN recommendations.
(google translation)

When was the last time Sweden went to war? The Viking Era?

I would suspect that since the eruption of that Icelandic volcano more and more businesses will (be advised to) incorporate a Force Majeure clause in their trading terms. They will have standard wording and include war as one of the unforeseeable events, daft but we live in an era where people are well advised to cover their arse.

Sweden used to be one of the most powerful states in Europe.
There is a small stone memorial just to the north of Innsbruck marking the furthest southern penetration of the Swedish dragoons.
Sometime in the 1600's Mikael?
Actually Sweden has not been to war since 1814 - apart from their long and honourable service under the blue beret.
