 History
Swabia (German Schwaben, Latin Suevia), with its capital at Augsburg, was a medieval duchy in the lands now forming southwestern Germany.
The duke, who was Otto's son, transformed his disappointment into first a conspiracy in 952 and in 953 an open revolt which could not be quashed until 955.
The term Swabia is still used to refer to the areas once encompassed by the medieval duchy (except for the parts now located in Switzerland and in Baden).

 Swabian History compiled by Harald Pleiner
Swabia (German Schwaben, Latin Suevia), with its (former) capital at Augsburg, was a medieval duchy in the lands now forming southwestern Germany.
The term Swabia nowadays is used in a more restricted way and does not refer to the whole area once encompassed by the medieval duchy.
The modern center of Swabia is thought to lie at Stuttgart and there one can often hear spoken the Swabian dialect, Schwäbisch, with its customary friendly greeting of "Grüss Gott" (sounds like 'Gree's Godd').
