Medieval Sweden
In the 6th century the
earliest Swedes, the Svear, joined forces with the Gotar, their neighbors to the south.
From
the 7th to the 11th century the Swedes joined with other Norse in the Viking raids. By the
12th century
Christianity had been fully established in Sweden under their king, Eric IX.
Sweden had conquered Finland & continued
to war with Norway & Denmark for control of the
north. In the 14th century Sweden, Denmark & Norway were united
under one monarchy.
