Origin According to the legend, during the 6th century a man came wandering over the mountains from India to China. He has been remembered as Bodhidharma or Daruma (Japanese). This man first settled down in the Liang province where the local patron Wu Di studied Buddhism. Daruma who was teaching meditation and intuitive capability was though misunderstood by Wu Di, who's Buddhism was aimed for salvation of people to a life after this, and he was thrown out from his domains. Daruma continued his travel and finally settled down at Shaolin, which was a temple at the mountain Hao-shan in what today is known as the Hunan province in China. Here he became accepted and the Buddhism that now came to be spread from here became known as Chan or Zen in its Japanese translation. Daruma's main practice of Buddhism was sitting meditation (zazen), which his disciples practiced eagerly. The disciples' long meditation sessions made their physics weaker and therefore Daruma decided to teach the fighting techniques that he learnt in India. Through this the disciples' physics was improved and they could then more easily manage the long sessions of meditation. After some time it turned out that the fighting techniques was as good practice as the meditation and the fighting techniques soon became the main practice. It is this evaluation that has made the Shaolin temple famous all over the world.

Home FAQ History The Award ... About hovlev.com yesterday and today Sweden has been a monarchy for over a thousand years. For all this time, craftsmen, merchants and others have been delivering goods and services to the monarch and the Royal Family. The first suppliers to the Royal Family were the artisans and merchants who plied their trades in the quarters around the Royal Palace in Stockholm and the other Swedish royal residences. When the Royal Family then gradually started to order goods from other parts of the country and from abroad, the system of royal warrants also began to spread. The National Coat of Arms of 1897, made for the biscuit company "Göteborgs kex AB". Photo: Kent Hallgren, Kungälv. In the 17 th century, and probably earlier still, the title "merchant to the king" was used. By the end of the century this had given way to the practice of writing "His Royal Majesty's" and then the trade or profession. This gave rise to titles such as His Royal Majesty's Baker and His Royal Majesty's Tailor. The word Majesty was later replaced by "Royal Court", and craftsmen and merchants started to style themselves Baker to the Royal Court, Tailor to the Royal Court, Chimney Sweep to the Royal Court.

Sweden came out on top, as the peace treaty of 1323 between Sweden and Novgorod assigned only eastern Finland to Novgorod. The western and southern parts of Finland were tied to Sweden and the Western European cultural sphere, while eastern Finland, i.e. Karelia, became part of the Russo-Byzantine world. As a consequence of Swedish domination, the Swedish legal and social systems took root in Finland. Feudalism was not part of this system and the Finnish peasants were never serfs; they always retained their personal freedom. Finland's most important centre was the town of

The Virtual Jewish History Tour Sweden By Rebecca Weiner History Holocaust Period Post-Holocaust Period History While a number of Jews lived in Sweden, practicing their rituals in secret, a Jewish community was not officially established until the 1770's. Samson Efraim and his son visited Goteborg and Stockholm on business in 1702. More Jewish businessman came to Sweden because of the demands of the East Indian Company and, in 1733, Jews were allowed to visit auctions in Goteborg and a small Jewish community of eight individuals lived in Stockholm until 1734. Aron Isak Aron Isak, a seal engraver from Germany, was the first Jew granted permission to live as a Jew in Sweden. He was first offered citizenship if he accepted Christianity; his response, "I would not change my religion for all the gold in the world" impressed the Lord Mayor of Stockholm, who advised Isak to make a legal protest to King Gustav III. The King subsequently granted him citizenship as the first Swedish Jew. He was allowed to bring some Jewish families, so there would be at least a 10 Jewish men (the number needed to hold prayer services). In 1775, the island of Marstrand, off the coast of the Goteborg, all foreigners were allowed to live on the island ,including Jews. Five years later, the first Jewish family settled in Goteborg. In 1782, legislation was adopted allowing Jews to settle in Sweden without converting to Christianity.
