Hm. In Sweden, I can only think of the expression "A regular Svensson" as a view of a typical Swedish citizen. However, I'd say it is closer to a "John Doe" description mixed with both an ideal, a comical or even satirical view, rather than just an 'ideal citizen' in mind. Then again, Sweden is a country who officially hasn't been at war for 200yrs or somesuch and when it comes to being nationalistic and carving ourselves some ego, we quite fail. xD
