GOTEBORG, SWEDEN – During the Cold War, a Soviet invasion of the Nordic countries was never far away. Most young people of today are not well-informed of what the Cold War meant to the Nordics and what was at stake.
What if history unfolded a bit different? How would the world look like? This thought was put through its paces to create puzzling and amusing memes of very famous Nordic icons – such as the Swedish Dalahorse, the Norwegian Lusekofta and Danish Smørrebrød.
These “Russified” memes will lay the foundation for what the Cold War was – a conflict between the West and the East – and what the upcoming launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will bring to the world.
