	Governors-General of Sweden - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Governor-General was always appointed as the highest representative of the Swedish monarch in the Dominions ruled, or the Possessions governed, by Sweden.
		The term viceroy is better reserved for the Stattholder, the representative of the Swedish Monarch in Norway when that neighbouring country was in (voluntary) personal union with Sweden, as it concerns a whole kingdom, and notably in the several cases where the incumbent was no lesser then the Swedish Crown prince.
		Governors-General could also be appointed, over parts of Sweden proper, today's Sweden and Finland, and usually consisting of several counties in that part of the country, when circumstances so required.

	Governor-General - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In these cases, the former colonial Governor was "upgraded" (sometimes for the same incumbent) to the title of Governor[-]General upon independence as the nature of the office became a universal 'constitutional figurehead' position, no longer a symbol of colonial rule.
		The first Governor General of India was Lord Mountbatten, who had been the last Viceroy; the second (and last) Governor General was Chakravarthi Rajagopalachari; thereafter the post was replaced with the largely equivalent post of non-executive President under the 1950 Indian Constitution.
		From 1636 to 1815, the Governors-General of Sweden typically were appointed for the Swedish Dominions on the eastern side of the Baltic and in northern Germany, but occasionally also for Scania.

	Governor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		A governor was originally an official appointed by the English monarch to oversee one of his colonies.
		In theory state Governors are appointed by the Queen and act as her representative.
		In the United Kingdom's remaining overseas territories the governor is normally a direct appointee of the British Government and plays an active role in governing and lawmaking (though usually with the advice of elected local representatives).

	Sweden (07/06)
		Sweden suffered further territorial losses during the Napoleonic wars and was forced to cede Finland to Russia in 1809.
		Sweden's predominantly agricultural economy shifted gradually from village to private farm-based agriculture during the Industrial Revolution, but this change failed to bring economic and social improvements commensurate with the rate of population growth.
		While some argued that it went against Sweden's historic policy of neutrality (Sweden had not joined the EU during the Cold War because it was incompatible with neutrality), others viewed the move as a natural extension of the economic cooperation that had been going on since 1972 with the EU.

	Governor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Often, a governor would have served as a consul or a praetor in Rome before being dispatched, but this was not always the case - less important provinces might be governed by a prefect, and (after the end of the Republic) provinces under direct control of the Emperor would be governed by a legate.
		In the British Empire a governor was originally an official appointed by the British monarch to oversee one of his colonies.
		Currently, the counties of Sweden, the provinces of China and Finland, the states of Mexico and Indonesia and some of the administrative devisions of Russia are among the areas which have leaders with the title of governor.

		This is the old subdivision of Sweden, dating back to the Middle Ages, when they actually (with a modern term) could be seen as federal states in a united kingdom which was Sweden.
		In Sweden, a region has de facto come to be the same thing as a landsting but with some more questions to decide about, which have before been decided by the county.
		The split up in these three parts of Sweden has no official significance, but there are some official authorities which has names derived from these names as they are in charge for something in areas approximately corresponding to these borders.

	Johan Printz
		John Printz was appointed governor at the age of 50 in 1642.
		In addition to living quarters for the governor and his family, the building contained one or more rooms for office use, for record keeping, and for court proceedings, as well as for receiving commissioners from adjacent colonies and other prominent visitors.
		The conditions would now have given rise to considerable optimism in New Sweden, were it not for the increasingly aggressive stance of the Dutch exacerbated by the arrival of Peter Stuyvesant as Director General of New Netherlands.
