Svealand or Sweden Proper[1] is a historical region of Sweden.
Svealand consists of the capital region Mälardalen in the east, Roslagen to the north-east, the Mining District Bergslagen in the center, and Dalarna in the west.
Svealand was the original Sweden, to which it gave its name.
Svealand is a historical land, and a separate kingdom, from the time before the unification of Sweden.
Geographically it is located in middle Sweden, bounded to the north by Norrland and to the south of Götaland.
The crusade started by the kings of Svealand in the east during the 12th century eventually lead to the conquest of the provinces of Österland, an older name for Finland.
