How to fix the apple store account, the country

Hi!

I'm from Sweden and I want to download some American apps but when I try to do that, something goes wrong and the apple store says that I must have a American account to download those apps. What can I do? Can I fix my account so I can download those apps?

I've tried many times to download and searched on internet but I didn't find any answer, so please could you help me with this problem?!?

If you are going to find out that I cannot download those apps, can I do a another account were I change the country so I can download some apps? And this is happening on my phone.

You can only legally download from the store for the country where you have legal residence. You can't just choose another store and download the content because it has content that your store doesn't have.

No. In order to download from the US Store, you must have a US credit card with a US billing address, and you must be physically present in the US.
