Captions Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria has embarked on special officer training in the Swedish Armed Forces.
🇸🇪 This training is part of the Crown Princess's efforts to broaden her knowledge for her future as head of state. When she succeeds her father, King Carl XVI Gustaf, the Crown Princess will become the fourth female monarch in the history of the Kingdom of Sweden, and the first since 1720.
♀️ ♂️ The Crown Princess is one of around 80 women enlisted in the Officers' Programme, corresponding to 28% of cadets. Altogether, there are currently around 24% women and 76% men in the Swedish Armed Forces.
The special officer training is aimed at people with an academic degree and is between 20 and 25 months long. Crown Princess Victoria has a bachelor's degree in Peace and Conflict Studies.
