Sweden, Missouri

Sweden is an unincorporated community in Douglas County, Missouri, United States.[1] Sweden lies in the south-central part of the county. The former Sweden store is located on Missouri Route 14, one-half mile east of the intersection of Route 14 and State Route P. Sweden community church and cemetery lie one-quarter mile north of the former store location on a county road.[2]

History

A post office called Sweden was established in 1896, and remained in operation until 1956.[3] The community's name was supposed to honor a resident with the surname Sweten (a recording error accounts for the error in spelling, which was never corrected).[4]

gollark: Well, I decided to not have ROM and to dump program code into memory starting from location `0` because WHY NOT.
gollark: Maybe a general "flags" register, yes.
gollark: Hmm, what registers do I need other than general ones and the program counter?
gollark: Oh, and the assembly language can be based on S-expressions, like WASM, to be annoying.
