re: #37 Teukka

Iirc, because of the tensions with Russia, the Swedes reactivated the Swedish Army’s “Gotland Regiment” just a few years ago.

And the town of Visby reminds me of the medieval battle there between the local rural militia and a Danish force of professional, veteran and mercenary knights. (Note - the rural militia got massacred.) It is notable because of the large amount of archeological evidence (from the battle and often quite gruesome) found.
