Halland Province, Sweden
Historically the province of Halland belonged to the
Danish Crown, as a part of
Terra Scania,
together with the provinces
Skåne
and
Blekinge, which made up the eastern
part of the Danish kingdom. The Varberg Fortress was built in
the 11th century and improved with higher walls in the 15th
century. Halland became a Swedish possession in 1645 by the
Treaty of Brömsebro,
initially for a period limited to 30 years. The conquest was
later made permanent by the Treaty of Roskilde in 1658. The
island of
Anholt, part of the parish of Morup,
was however forgotten in the peace settlement, and the island
remains Danish.

Sweden's National Anthem
Du gamla, Du fria, Du
fjällhöga nord
Du tysta, Du glädjerika sköna!
Jag hälsar Dig, vänaste land uppå jord,
Din sol, Din himmel, Dina ängder gröna.
Din sol, Din himmel, Dina ängder gröna.
Du tronar på minnen från fornstora dar,
då ärat Ditt namn flög över jorden.
Jag vet att Du är och Du blir vad du var.
Ja, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.
Ja, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.
Jag städs vill dig tjäna mitt älskade land,
din trohet till döden vill jag svära.
Din rätt, skall jag värna, med håg och med hand,
din fana, högt den bragderika bära.
din fana, högt den bragderika bära.
Med Gud skall jag kämpa, för hem och för härd,
för Sverige, den kära fosterjorden.
Jag byter Dig ej, mot allt i en värld
Nej, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.
Nej, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
You ancient, free and mountainous North,
Of quiet, joyful beauty,
I greet you, loveliest land on earth,
Your sun, your sky, your green meadows.
Your sun, your sky, your green meadows.
You are throned on memories of olden days
When the honor of your name spread over the earth.
I know that you are and will remain what you were.
Oh, may I live, may die in the Nordic North!
Oh, may I live, may die in the Nordic North!
