This country’s “parish granaries” failed to prevent its 1867 famine, which drove peasants to “bark bread” and was a factor in the wave of emigration that brought Joe Hill to the US. This is the northeasternmost of three countries whose culture was shaped by the late 19th-century Modern Breakthrough. For 10 points, name this country ruled by Oscar II and Gustav V. ■END■
