List of Swedish defence areas

List of Swedish defence areas

This is a list of Swedish defence areas. The Swedish defence area (Swedish: "Försvarsområde", usually abbreviated to Fo) was an administrative division of the Swedish Armed Forces, and was a lower regional level subdivision, usually corresponding to a Swedish county. The commander of a defence area, the "Försvarsområdesbefälhavare", usually commanded local defence units, including infantry, engineers, air defence and light artillery, as well as any Home Guard units in the area. The commander answered to the larger military area that the defence area was part of.
