Skåne has been a contested region for 1200 years. It has fluctuated between Swedish and danish rule many times. It’s essentialy the Alsace-Lorraine of Scandinavia. I was born in Scania by two Scanian parents, yet my http://Ancestry.com says that im only swedish and not danish
http://Ancestry.com is trained on modern labeled samples, dude. :p Would be interesting to see if Skåne is closer genetically to Copenhagen than Stockholm, the answer which is probably "yes".
Skåne has been part of Denmark from at least 700s to 1658 (actually, it was sort of Danish for a while after that), so >1000 years Danish, and ~360 years Swedish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Scania#After_the_Christianization …
Many of those years where it was under danish rule, it was actually independant. But since Denmark was the only country that ”claimed” that land during that it was simplified as ”Danish”.
Scania also experienced alot of swedish tribal immigrants, östragötare, västergötare (ostrogoths, visigoths)
True but remember that the immigrants in Stockholm is not in the city itself but the suburbs. So this probably explain some of the differences. Also percentage wise Stocholm has less immigrants than both Malmo and gothenburg. But with that said i still see the danish
hypothesis as making sense and could very well explain the attitude and voting patterns in Skåne. But we need to control for other factors.
Well, then get me the dataset.
We don't really have much to work with as of today. But i would like to see more research being conducted in this field ,population differences in behaviour and attitudes.
any diffs in the immigrant groups btwn the two places? also, has there been any peculiar internal immigration (self-sorting) of the scandis, i.e. diff sorts moving to stockholm vs. malmö in modern era, for instance?
