Småland, Historical province in southern Sweden
Småland extends across three counties, featuring dense coniferous forests, thousands of lakes, and rolling landscapes punctuated by granite formations and peat bogs.
During the Middle Ages, Småland consisted of separate territories with individual legal systems until King Magnus Eriksson unified them under national law in 1350.
The province maintains strong connections to literature through authors like Astrid Lindgren and Vilhelm Moberg, who documented local life in their renowned works.
The region contains multiple national parks, including Store Mosse, Norra Kvill, and Åsnen, offering extensive hiking trails and opportunities for wildlife observation.
The Kingdom of Crystal, established in 1742, continues its tradition of glassmaking in locations such as Orrefors, Kosta, and Boda.
