Sweden's flag was adopted on June 22, 1906, but its design is hundreds of years old (it probably dates from 1521). The Swedish flag is blue with a golden-yellow Scandinavian cross. The colors are derived from the Swedish national arms and the design is from the Danish flag.

Flag Day in Sweden is celebrated each year on June 6. On this date in 1523, King Gustav I Vasa began his reign (and Sweden was no longer under the control of Denmark), and in 1809, Sweden's new constitution was adopted.
