@MRnissetomte Occasionally you see the Sverige-class described as "coastal battleships", and Jane's listed them as battleships when they were active. But at 7500 tonnes and four 11 inch guns, they cannot compare to a real battleship under normal circumstances. They were designed for operations in the shallow waters of the Baltic Sea. There they would be able to operate freely while a true battleship would be very restricted.
The Swedish term was Panserskepp - Armoured Ship.

@jboshk65 Graf Spee is arguably not an actual battleship but rather an up-gunned heavy cruiser. Then again, Hood wasn't actually a full battleship either.

"Roslagsvår" by Hugo Alfvén
I dont know so much but the ships of Sverige-class are rather small, only displease 7200 tons, on the other hand the other battleships you are talking about are displeaseing at around 30000 and 35000 tons.
And the two cruisers of Tre Kronor-class displeased at 9300, so Sweden haven had any battleships in that mark, correct me if im wrong but the famous pocketbattleships wight in at about 14000 so...

I´m sorry, but I cant answer your question...I only know that Sweden has very small ships today...but this battleship (from about 1915) was larger.

Ohh, i don't know that they were coming from a french/sweden prince... Perhaps... So you can have little relation with us... Who knows... But don't forget that he has lots of relations with Napoleon... Marechal of the Empire... Nice rank!
That's true that sweden have a bit french roots.... It's funny :)
