        You underestimate my capacity to forget historical trivia. It’s quite unmatched in fact.

      I have heard of Nova Scotia, though. Can’t say that about any of the Swedish colonies.

      Ironically, the attempted colonisation of Panama led to Scotland becoming a part of Great Britain.

    Hmm, I think I’ve heard of even less impressive colonization efforts though. Courland’s attempt at doing colonialism for example.
