Description Originally I wanted to do a more larger gallery of all flags of CoAs of Swedish province, but this had proven costly due to enormous file size and work time. So releasing it in three separate artworks would be far greater the same as opposed to a enlarged variant. This time focusing on Norrland, the northern part of Sweden that alternatively referred to it as "Greater Schweetzland" due to it's coat of arms bearing House of Schweetz's arms. The numbers of images featured in one gallery is much akin to Trotzky's Europe by TiltschMaster , which by the way begun placing images in order without having a name and and instead making overviews for these. The entire flag and coat of arms gallery were used effectively during Erich von Schweetz's reign in Kingdom of Sweden and both the old and new Swedish Monarchist Shugarhai Empires, as I think that provinces (landskap) would be awesome for administrative or political purposes rather then untraditional so-called countries (län). Also, it didn't include Northrobothnia (Norrbotten) because their arms is boring and only to be evolved as a province of it's own after Norrbotten Country was created in 1810 consisting of the northern parts of Lapland and Västerbotten, and that's why Northrobothnia was created from there.
