This is a list of Swedish regiments and other military units (divisions, brigades, battalions, companies) that have existed since the 16th century. Most formations have changed names several times during their existence. Listed here are commonly used names. Regiments were the highest organized organic units in the Swedish Army from the time of Gustavus Adolphus on to the Second World War. In 1949, the Swedish Army was reorganised, with the regiments being used as training units for conscripts during peacetime. The new main fighting unit was the brigade, only organised in wartime (with a few exceptions). The division (''fördelning'') is not a static organization, but can have brigades assigned and removed when needed, similar to other countries' corps formations. For a short background of the Swedish conscription system historically used, see the article on the Swedish allotment system. == Grand regiments == ''Storregementen'' or ''landsregementen'' (regiments of the land), these regiments were organized by Gustavus Adolphus in the end of the 1610s from the smaller units ''fänika'' and ''fana'' raised in the various parts of Sweden during the time of Gustav Vasa: * ''Norrlands storregemente'' (Norrland Grand Regiment) * ''Upplands storregemente'' (Uppland Grand Regiment) * ''Södermanlands storregemente'' (Södermanland Grand Regiment) * ''Östergötlands storregemente'' (Östergötland Grand Regiment) * ''Västergötlands storregemente'' (Västergötland Grand Regiment) * ''Smålands storregemente'' (Småland Grand Regiment) * ''Finlands storregemente'' (Österbotten Grand Regiment) * ''Karelska storregementet'' (Karelian Grand Regiment) * ''Västra Finlands storregemente'' (Western Finland Grand Regiment) * ''Mellersta Finlands storregemente'' (Middle Finland Grand Regiment) * ''Östra Finlands storregementet'' (Eastern Finland Grand Regiment) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of Swedish regiments」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
