Achievements may be a better word, but as not a lot happening on this forum at the moment , it may be interesting to document Abbas achievements.. For instance..
In the UK , Gold,holds the record for most weeks of any album on the UK album chart, as of this week 1159.
I guess as in the UK and if not around the world , possibly apart from Sweden, ABBA are the most successful Swedish group.
And so on.. are there any past records or future ones in site and n your country?

UK
GOLD is best selling album since the Official Charts began in 1994. (2nd best seller of All Time)
Worldwide may not "first" or most in some cases
- MOST Successful Eurovision Act - Only Eurovision winning song to make US Top 10. - AUstralia - highest sales per capita in 1975-76 (actually I am guessing this haha)
- Not first to use videos but used them routinely instead of physical promoting -Followed The Beatles in making a film for cinema release -Recording an album not in their first language or English but Spanish - Pioneers of "juke box" musicals -Pionerrs of AI type concerts
They've been always business savvy.
And possibly the most pointless compilation releases and following stiff competition from Elvis Presley and The Carpenters..
