- A 12-part documentary about the history of Sweden, beginning at the end of the latest ice age (some 15,000 years ago) and reaching into today. It is part of a larger enterprise in which the Historiska museet (Museum of History) in Stockholm runs an exhibition in 2010-2011 about the history of Sweden from the year 1000 to today and the book company Norstedts publishes a series of eight books on the history of Sweden from 13,000 BC to today, of which publishing began in 2009.
- Around 200 Swedes volunteered to fight as SS soldiers for Germany. Who were they? What happened to them during and after the war? Waffen-SS became known for massacres and ethnic cleansing.
