I ask the same question. I assume it should say "1.3 million Swedes", but I don't know enough about the subject to edit it myself... 85.228.133.67 (talk) 16:19, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To answer myself... Lots of other articles about Swedish em/immigration to the US talk about 1.3 million Swedes, so I'll do the edit. 85.228.133.67 (talk) 17:06, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Was this article's name "colonizaion" in the past? Has it been changed? If that's true, why? The article New Sweden does link to "colonization." And an article about the Dutch still uses the word (Dutch colonization of the Americas).--Adûnâi (talk) 08:41, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
