Hej r/sweden, here is my entirely hand-drawn map of your country! (Scroll for close-ups and more)

  1. I’m very impressed by your work and by your choice of hobby. However I have to inform you that when it comes to the Gothenburg neighbourhoods you got many of the names wrong. If you’re main source is Google maps then it makes sense, that map doesn’t seem to know which neighbourhood names are in wide use and which are not and sometimes places them incorrectly.

  2. Wow, amazing work! the map is very accurate. There are some minor errors if you want to be as accurate as an aerial photo but overall everything is correctly placed and I don’t think you missed any major lakes, towns and such.

  3. Looks very nice, but you might want to find a way to double-check your spelling. Here are some mistakes I found (up north):

    Riksgransen -> Riksgränsen.

    Sårektjakkå -> Sarektjåkkå.

    Norrbotten (not a village).

    Årrenjaka -> Årrenjarka.

    Arvidsjar-> Arvidsjaur.

    Blattniksele -> Blattnicksele.

    Pitea -> Piteå.

    Hedenäsel -> Hedenäset.

    Tälfteå -> Täfteå.

    Timra -> Timrå.

    Kataviken -> Kåtaviken.

    Björnryke -> Björnrike.

    Oland -> Öland (in the legend).

    Haparanda is missing.

  4. Especially impressed with the amount of villages here in Norrbotten. You missed northernmost village tho, Maunu, north of Karesuando. 🙂

  5. Good job! I see you’re busy making many other countries as well, so don’t mind those nitpicking on missing umlauts and stuff.

  6. so cool, but the population is pretty wrong, we’re about 17400 in gällivare if you want more accuracy. though i guess it’s hard to find accurate population info about swedish towns on non-swedish sites.

  7. Just because I wanted to say more than impressive work. Under the E between Uppsala and Tierp there’s a lake and somewhat large town, I’m comparing to what other towns have been put on but most important it’s not a small lake

  8. Man I want to give you kudos because what you’ve done is amazing

    But you forgot some of the most culturally important Cities in the country.

    Although I do understand how that could’ve happened honestly it’s just bad form.
