Today is the National Day of Sweden! πŸŽ‰πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ͺ

The date, 6 June, stems from two important events in the history of Sweden: Gustav Vasa was elected king on 6 June 1523 – which laid the foundation for Sweden as an independent state – and Sweden adopted a new, important constitution on 6 June 1809. Two perfect reasons to celebrate!
