Det er virkeligt godt lavet. Elsker Sverige, Norge og Findland. Fedt at være Nordisk.

Love it! Learning Swedish and history at the same time. A lovely combination!

Wildeshausen is so only about 400 km from my home :) Can't believe it used to belong to Sweden! Greetings from Belgium.

Ingermanland is where I, my dad, my granddad and also my great granddad were born. That feeling when the author is speaking about your homeland

Nu kan vi göra som Ryssland o hävda våran rätt till vissa områden. Vi har ju historiska rättigheter.

damn mate finally a channel that focuses on Scandinavia. I speak Swedish on an OK level and wanna get into Finnish too so I hope you'll be making more sick videos like this.

Valdigt interessant! Som en finsk-amerikan med svensk ursprung, allting med Sverige intresserar mig.

Skitbra gjort! Hoppas det kommer fler videor om gränsändringar eller svensk historia.

Tack för den här videon som är mycket informativ och har också hjälpt mig att förbättra min svenska :)

Awesome. It was interesting for me because it's the first time I've ever heard Swedish but understood a lot of what was said without subtitle help. Really beautiful language 👍

Tack för denna video!

Grymt bra video och väldigt detaljrik sammanfattning. Tusen tack!!

Riktigt bra. Denna bör många fler (historielösa) människor se.

Ångermanland was settled by Norse speaker long before 1150 AD! You can see this in both placenames, placename patterns and archelogical findings. In fact during the first half of the milennia what is today Hälsingland, Medelpad, Ångermanland and parts of Jämtland were its own petty kingdom (the area north of the border forest of Ödemården, desolcated forest, and south of Skuleskogen, Skule forest). The burial mounds along Selånger in Medepad from this era rival that of the mounds in old Uppsala in riches and in wealth - it was not some poor back water area. After the eviromental catastrophy around 536AD and thereafter (several vulcanic eruptions and the following years of global vulcanic winter) the settlments in the north looses their elite characteritics and the population was notibly decreased but never vanished. The political entity was splintred and you can see this when King Sverre of Norway ride first through Hälsingland and the up to Jämtland where he in 1177(?) conqured Jämtland at the battle of Storsjön (on the ice). Here Hälsingland and Jämtland acts as two different political entites, both governed by so called "folk-republics" (similar to Iceland). However it is worth knowing that Jämtland, and most likely the rest of the middle north area as well in some shape or form, was at times paying tribute to the Swedes in exchange for protection from the Norwegian kings, not rarely based in Trondheim at the time. However the Norwegian king Olaf the Holy was held in very high regard and is said to have promoted church building in the whole river vally of Ljungan on his way to the battle Stikkelstad where many men from the area joind him. Had he not died there who knows if the area would perhaps become under Norwegian rule. We know that in the 1200-ish the Swedish king considered the area his subjects. But in his letters he is begging the area to pay tribute, pay taxes and provide military men. A medeival king do not beg and it clearly show that the inhabitants of this area thought of themselves as independent no matter what the king himself thought. It was not until 1320AD that Swedish taxcollectors stopped being killed on the spot and the area started to become a integrated part of the Swedish kingdom. If you swap the area "Ångermanland" out with "Västerbotten" though then the word "colonize" is a somewhat better fit as the majority of norse/Swedish placenames are of a younger date in this area. However you miss quite a big political entity in the region and that is the Finnish speaking Kvens/Kväner who is most likely from whom the elite known as "Birkarlar" (likely meaning merchants who trade with, and later collected tax from, the Sami) came. Along the coastline there had also been home, seasonal amd permantly, to Norse speaking coastal fishers. There is at that many different entities inside what we today just call Sami. So lumping all this groups, with different languages, lifestyles and culture into one with the missrepresetative lable "Sami" is bordeline disrespectful and carry in it self a bad aftertaste of a colonial mindset. That this ares were incoperated into the Swedish kingdom is a fact. If it was voluntarely or involuntarely or both at the same time is a complex issue. However the choices of words are important and using "colonised" indicates that there was no Norsepeaking people there before this date, which is false. The very name "Ångermanland" is old Norse in origin (meaning "the fjord mens land") and even have a flavour of west Norse (like Norwegian; compare "ånger" with Norwegian "anger", as in Stavanger, as the word for "fjord") rather the east Norse (like the Swedes). Infact the dialects of the whole area has flavours of west Norse that the rest of the east coast do not have.

Tack! Så intressant!

7:50 Stolta Älgtårar.

Bästa videon någonsin

Fantastiskt spännande presentation. Bra jobbat!

Bra program👍

Väldigt bra förklarat

That was great! Thanks.

tack, bra att veta

Mycket välgjort och intressant, youtube behöver fler videor som denna!

imponerande tydlighet 👌

Thanks a lot for a very informative and pedagogical video.

Intressant, Det där visste jag inte så i detalj. Thanks allot friends, 🙏👍🙂🇸🇪

Tack!

.... Medetiden... Av Sverige.. 🤫✌️👍🕊️🇫🇴❤️✌️✌️✌️✌️💋

INTRESSANT VIDEO, SPENDERADE MIN LÖRDAG MED FAMILJEN OCH FICK EN HÄRLIG KONVERSION RUNT MATBORDET 👍

Tack lärorikt till max i denna lagom långa film

bra gjort, tydligt och intressant.

trevlig video fortsätt

likte denne vedlig godt, presis, og oversiktelig! 👌

Bra berättat! :)

Väldigt intressant! Lägger ut länken på cuzz.

Academia cerava jag älskar dina videos så mycket

Bra forklart :) Jeg tror det mangler en kort men spesiell hendelse i 1644 eller noe. Vanskelig å finne info.

Utmärkt sammanfattning, och fint att inte bara visa gränsförändringarna utan även ge litet kontext vid varje årtal. Apropå pantsättningen av Wismar 1803 så var det ju en pantsättning på 100 år. Sverige hade kunnat lösa in lånet 1903 och återfått provinsen, även om det varit dyrt, bisarrt och onödigt.

Inte bara Samer, vi Tornedalingar/Kväner fanns där med!

INTRESTING!!

Intressant!

Now i see why your norwegian pronounciation is so good (Still kinda sounds like a swede tho). Because of your good american english accent i thought that you actually was american. I loved the vid my fellow scandinavian

Excellent

I have recently discover, that my great grandfather was born in Småland. And myself are finnish in 3rd generation

Thank god there's an actual English subtitle, to whoever translated, whether it be the creator or a random person I shall worship you.

Bra!

Väldigt roligt att få veta det här har alltid undrat men nu vet jag

Underbar history lektion, mycket lärorikt, tack,

It’s weird listening to Germanic languages as a Brit, it’s like you can understand what he’s saying but don’t know what the words mean

grym

Genialisk video!!

Satakunta is currently Satakunta in Swedish also. It is a translation of Hundare (Hundred in English) i.e. an area that would raise a hundred soldiers.

Föredömlig video!

Interesting. Tack så mycket! However, there was no “Russia” in the 17th century, as it was called Moskovia at the time. It started being called “Russia” in the 18th century, with czar Peter I. Besides, it the 13th century Novgorod was connected to Rus, which was not the same thing as the modern Russia.

Hade varit roligt om du tog med svenska kolonier samtidigt som de facto var svenska områden :)

vi förtjänar Finland tillbaka

Skönt att vi blev av med Norge.

Why do I somehow understand this without subtitles?

8:04 The Boss when you fight him 0:09 The Boss when you unlock him as a playable character

- Å fan!

Åh Äntligen en svensk video

According to Ottar from Hålogaland (visiting king Alfred of Wessex around 890, i.e. 1130 years ago) Norway reached up to about todays Tromsø. He knew, because he lived there. He was also granted the right to tax the Sami-people. One may ask who it was that could grant such rights to his underlings? Ottar (in English Othere) told king Alfred about Norway, and he also knew of the Svear and Daner and the Kvener (swedes, danes and finns) and where they lived! He also visited the Bjarmer (present day Russia) and gave king Alfred a gift he had purchased from the people he met in Bjarmeland. Actually he understood the languages of the Bjarmer because they spoke a language very similar to the Samis. At that time it was a group closely related to the Sami that lived along the shore of the White Sea (as we call it). Maybe the most important thing was that he told king Alfred that he was a Norwegian that came from Norway, and he also tried to explain how the Norwegians differed from the neigbouring countries of Svear and Daner.

And this, my friend, is why UKposts added subtitles

As one Swede once told me: Svenska Estland är det bästa Estland :)

8:00 ett namn, Axel Oxenstierna

Var det inte någon fästning i Åländska skärgården som finnarna råkade bygga på den svenska sidan av en ö i modern tid, som fick kompenseras av att Sverige fick mark från finska sidan av ön? (vilket förvisso är en historisk fotnot men trots allt är en gränsförändring).

Tak alle i hop :)

8:09 Laughs in Stormaktssverige

i got this in my recomended

Kan du inte göra en film om vilka gränser Sverige hade utanför Europa

men finland då?

❤❤❤👍

8:04 Den gamla goda tiden. The good old days. Ah..

So interesting! My family name is Richter and I have tried to figure out how I have this German name. I have traced my ancestry back to Uppsala in the middle of 1600. Then the traces are not clear. There are soldiers with the name Richter who fled the Russians from the Baltics. I would really appreciate if anyone could help me find out more.

Intressant och lärorikt. Intressant att Sverige och Danmark varit i krig så mycket men sedan gränserna blev lättare att försvara och gick mer i enlighet med naturens förutsättningar har det varit fred.

👍🙂🙏

Oj sverige var litet!

I never knew you were Swedish (I don’t even know if you are speaking Swedish but probably yes because this is a video about Sweden)

Enkelt men utmärkt.

Veldig interessant som nordmann å se hvordan Sverige ble til og grensene ble slik de er i dag.

10:55 det där sved

"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear" - George Orwell

Todistetusti ensimmäiset verot Suomesta Ruotsiin maksettiin vuonna 1250. Samoin Suomen piispa mainittiin ensimmäistä kertaa Ruotsin piispojen joukossa. On siis väärin esittää että Suomi olisi kuulunut Ruotsin alaisuuteen vuodesta 1160.

gillar svensk histora

There was a time when Sweden was a part of Finland.

Que esta pasando

Älskade Sverige!

I can't understand anything

subtitles in swedish maybe?

Fred är bästa som finns i världen. Krig ar onödigt och tråkigt bättre liva med fred. Hoppas hela världen blir fred en vacker dag så folk slipper fly

Bra video, men hva med sveriges kolonier?

Bra video

Tavasland has been much longer there(1150 year.). Metal decting finds has proved that near Tampere area there has been much population.

Mycke interessant

Gillar att vi bara får hela jävla Norge av Danmark 😂😂😂

Fast du glömde berätta vad som hände med Wismar: 1903 beslutade man att inte lösa panten (som hade varit på 100 år), varpå staden slutligt övergick i tysk ägo.

Så vackert🥲

Nyland🇫🇮

Uppslöts ite Kalmarunionen 1523? Dvs 500-års jubileum i år?!

Hi. I actually don't understand the language, but as a slovak speaker, the word ,,sveriges,, catched my eyes. It is wery similar to SEVER whitch means north (eng). SVERNIK could be translated as : Northerner. This is also in other slavic languages.
