Sweden at a glance: its flag, its capital Stockholm, its population and where it sits on the world map. Plus a way to test yourself afterwards.
The yellow Scandinavian cross on a blue field takes its colours from the Swedish royal coat of arms — three gold crowns on an azure field — attested since at least the 14th century.
The cross motif, shared by all Nordic flags, is said to date back to a 15th-century Danish flag; its Swedish form was only made official in 1906.
