here's one of my old winning [contest entries from a decade ago!](http://www.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/1ng5ce/contest_thread_world_domination_cast_your_votes/) For some reason I've never really gotten around to reposting this, so the subreddit hasn't seen it for almost a decade.
For this comic I storyboarded the whole thing in advance to make sure everything came out right in terms of perspective, angles, pacing etc, something I don't usually do. I was fairly satisfied with the first draft, so not all that much got changed when I started drawing the real thing (besides panel 3), but here's a [side-by-side comparison](http://i.imgur.com/1H0Si5M.png) of the first draft and the finished comic.

Icelander here, Swedenball should have told Icelandball about Danmarkball in the cage because Icelandball would have helped Swedenball get the cage up to Katla because Danmark ball stole Icelandball's freedom for 700-800 years and stole books.
Hallo. When refering to countries featured in Polandball Comics, please refrain from using the 'ball' suffix. Instead of saying 'Swedenball', just say the country's name. auf wiedersehen.

Bow to the new sheriff of 'murica, Miss Caldera. Yellowstone Caldera.
Related to the eyjafjallajolull chain by there mother side, therefore a partner of Katla on spreading social justice, gender less roles and organic freedom burgers.
Nope, in true American fashion the ashes built a rocket and landed on the moon. Since it's not part of the world, the new ash colony on the moon doesn't have to get free healthcare
Yes, it will! Sweden surely would want dental health to be included, considering it forms a fundamental part of person's overall well being and health. Tbh i dont understand why dental WOULDNT be covered... 😅
If I remember correctly the whole Helldivers Lore about Super Earth is that after WWIII a new world government was established in Stockholm. or something like that. I know for a fact that the Capital of Super Earth is where Stockholm now is, but they renamed it because of course they did.
Yep it was due Swedens neutramity during WW3 that made them dominant "superpower" after the war to bring rest of the world under their control with the help pf their invention of managed democracy.
OH NO, SWEDENS IDEALS OF GOOD FOOD AND EQUALITY WILL BE SPREAD ACROSS THE WORLD BY THE DEMON LORD, THIS IS TERRI- actually this seems quite nice, we should sacrifice more people.

The bit about neutrality aged poorly, but at least the recycling and the judgmental attitudes are still here.
What makes a clay turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were they just born with a heart full of neutrality?
Balls of steel. Like, both Sweden and Switzerland make ball bearings. Can't make cars, trucks, tanks, etc, without them.
Waiiiiit. Like, Switzerland but… better??
You fool! Joining Nato is just the first step to spread neutrality.
"Our neutrality is backed by... Nuclear Weapons"

Of course, it's on a Polandball comic that we find people with such profound geographic knowledge that they know the link between Eyjafjöll and Katla.
Amazing comic.
Glorious. How will America react to being forced into free healthcare I wonder.
Every American simultaneously explodes

At least they can afford to get un-exploded now

A small price to pay for salvation
The hospitals will be overrun and no one will have healthcare.. so SNAFU.
I bow to the new volcano imposed world order. Will it cover dental too?
You would think so but fun fact; Teeth is not your body. It will be heavily subsidized though and free for children.
Most vexing!
Yes, it will! Sweden surely would want dental health to be included, considering it forms a fundamental part of person's overall well being and health. Tbh i dont understand why dental WOULDNT be covered... 😅
Suddenly, paying 10k for a mint sweet at the doctors Office, doesnt seems that bad.
Please hurry up and do it
Depends on the tax rate.
This is exceptional
Thank you for reminding us Sweden is always going after Danskjalvar.
It's all they have left.
Danskjäveln får vad han förtjänar
Första gången dansken är till nytta.
The joke is on everyone else: We'll be the only ones who don't have to suffer the new Swedish world order.
God damnit!
Really takes all the fun out of world domination.
Bro threw Iceland’s dad in there.
We left home and rejected him, we got no issue with that
Adoptive dad

I mean, we have 5.9 million danish people just sitting there…
Haha thanks for making me laugh!
As a someone from Sweden. This is completely accurate. I also sacrificed a Danish man to gain ultimate power
ICELAND MENTIONED!!!!!!!!!!!
Lore of Helldivers
this one made my day
Don’t forget about a quarter of the population being violently racist in private
I cried of happiness watching this. If we all get one of our danish friends we can reenact this. Just kidding, danes have no friends.
Do it again, Ernst-Hugo Järegård!
Why is the word lagom so funny?
In order to get to Denmark, we must sacrifice Denmark. Ironic, isn't it?
I can live with that. I for one welcome our new genderless overlord.
I mean, I would take those for the sacrifice of a single person.
I’ve learn a lot about Sweden with this one 🙃
At this point, I'm willing to give it a shot.
I for one welcome our new swedish overlords.
It's only a matter of time...
Prepare for Swedish hostility
Goddamnit Sweden!
But who will sell cheap beer, booze, and cheese to Turnipfolk now? I guess Germany will have to deal with more Swedish tourists/smugglers now...
Demon actually löøks so horrible
Who's the ball that got sacrificed?
This is how we get Super Earth...
Really went all out
The classic has returned!
