OverviewThis study takes a look at four regions of Sweden and shows the peculiarities of Swedish historical law: The Upplands landscape law of January 2, 1296 renewed the law there by canon law and placed the Upper Swedish canon law of Södermanland, Närke, Västmanland and Hälsingeland at the top of the list Time. The legal position of women is presented using Roman and canon law. According to the Church's view, women (because biblically created later than man) were only endowed with inferior rights, so that they were not involved in the thing and were only considered to have limited legal capacity. After the Danish conquest of Gotland in 1346, his old law initially continued to apply, but two Danish laws in the 15th and 16th centuries restricted his previous freedom of action, because the Danish kings had changed from being kings of the people to being absolute rulers. Only the Peace of Brömsebro from 13./23. August 1645 ended the war between Sweden and Denmark and restored Gotland to Swedish rights. In the 17th century, Gustav Adolf and Axel Oxenstierna transformed Sweden into a modern state, involved the nobility in the state administration and raised the Imperial Council to a transitional government in the absence of royal succession in order to stabilize the state.
