A detailed Swedish order of precedence, including the names of each individual office-holder, was published by the Office of the Marshal of the Realm between 1930 and 1974.[1] From 1975 until 2011 it was included in the more extensive Court Calendar published annually by the same office.[2] The order of precedence of 2011 included 425 individual names arranged into groups numbered 1 to 10.[3] No order of precedence is known to have been published since then.
Note that Sweden is a democracy, and no longer uses nobility for any positions of power, but they still retain their titles.
