| | SWEDEN - LoveToKnow Article on SWEDEN |
 | | On his arrival in Sweden, however, he tried to gain time by provisionally confirming what had been done; but the aggressiveness of the Protestant faction and the persistent usurpations of Duke Charles (the Riksdag of 1595 proclaimed him regent though the king had previously refused him that office) made a civil war inevitable. | | | In Sweden, Magnuss partialities and necessities led directly to the rise of a powerful landed aristocracy, and, indirectly, to the growth of popular liberties. | | | And thus, though he was strong enough to maintain what he had established and finish what be had begun, he was not strong enough to tamper seriously with the national liberties or to crush altogether Catholic aspirations. |

| | Journalists in prison, 2004 |
| | A word about how this list is compiled: In totalitarian societies where independent journalism is forbidden, CPJ often defends persecuted writers whose governments view them as political dissidents rather than as journalists. | | | We consider any journalist who is deprived of his or her liberty by a government to be imprisoned. | | | He is included on this list because he was in prison as of December 31, 2004. |

| | The country has a long tradition of Lutheran-Protestant Christianity, but today's Sweden is a secular state with few church-goers. | | | Leadership of Sweden has for the larger part of the 20th century been dominated by the Social Democratic Party, which started out at the end of the 19th century as a labour movement, but today pursues a mix of socialism and social-liberalism. | | | Swedish is the national language of Sweden, but you will find that a lot of people, especially those of an age below 70, also speak English quite well. |
