King of the Goths
Title previously used by Swedish and Danish monarchs / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title of King of the Goths (Swedish: Götes konung; Danish: Goternes konge; Latin: gothorum rex) was for many centuries borne by both the kings of Sweden and the kings of Denmark.
This article is about the medieval title. For the migration-era Goths, see King of the Visigoths and King of the Ostrogoths.
In the Swedish case, the reference is to Götaland (land of the Geats); in the Danish case, to the island of Gotland (land of the Gutes).
