The Swedish flag was adopted on June 22, 1906. The
flag contains a blue field with a yellow Scandinavian cross.
The flag is modeled on the Danish flag and the colors are
believed to have been taken from the Coat of Arms of
Sweden of 1442. The colors have been used to represent
Sweden since King Magnus Birgersson`s royal coat of
arms of 1275. (Mega-Flags.com)
