For the most part most of scandinavia have a rather orderly political landcape - it kinds like a glacier - everyting goes as it allways has been - and then sudently something happend - and the glascier are not in the game anymore - like the swedish SD who no one else want to play with - but who want a government position more than everything, but this time around it got snuffed away - and hopefully it wil not be more treath about early elections until next time its planned a election....

And another "fun facts" In Norway - it is not even allowed for early elections - it have never happend that not someone, somewhere in the political landscape have not taken over the help as government - so in our political system - it is no room for political early elections as we know it other places - either the government orginaly given the job have to stay in the job until next general elections - or someone else who have a governing minority in the Parliament have to take the helm - at the kings table (Our king kind of still have something to say - even if it is just informal) and try to work it all out - case for case - if nessesary... And its there this glascier thing comes into play again - nothing goes fast around - but it works...
