According to Wikipedia the biggest groups are Syrians, Iraqis, and people from the former Yugoslavia. There are also a lot of Finns. Then there are Poles, Iranians, Somalis, Afghans, Turks, Germans, Eritreans, Thais, Indians, Norwegians, Danes, Chinese, Romanians, Etc. Something like 5% of Swedish-born residents are descended from Finns if you go back a few generations (not counted among foreign-born immigrants).
