It’s worth remembering whilst Belgium and Sweden have similar sized populations density is totally different. Sweden is over ten times the size.
Just as a note on this, while you are of course correct that the density is different, just calculating overall density can be very misleading too. Sure Sweden is a lot larger, but when you look at a breakdown of the density, a large majority of the country is pretty empty:
But regardless, Belgium is definitely more densely populated even if you just look at actual residential areas.

Of course. The R rate is lower in Sweden. Comparing Brussels and Stockholm May be better. Along with economic impact. Not easy.
Sweden’s strategy is predicated on a naturally low R rate within their communities. This due to culture, geography, etc. It’s worth remembering whilst Belgium and Sweden have similar sized populations density is also totally different. Sweden is over ten times the size.
