There is now a Finnish version for the Provinces of Sweden.
It's too bad that the game descriptions is not visible on the actual game pages, but I agree there is a lot more work that one could put into this. It's still just for fun though...

OK, I will have to admit I didn't look into it with that much attention to detail. Perhaps a few lines in the game description about the year and such details would help me and other players to see the differences?

Well, I must admit that the game on the Austrian Empire is very similar. Mine has the fine distinction of including the various styles of the component states, as opposed to merely the names.
Regarding the German Empire there is a separate version just for Prussian provinces as not to confuse them with the actual states. Also note that both games considers the geography before the Peace of Versailles, not after.
Concerning the Swedish provinces I also considered making a companion to it using only Finnish names, which might present an interesting challenge. I would believe that the Swedish names are comparatively more well known than the Finnish names.

Swedish, not Sedish...

The Swedish game is not really a duplicate since you have used Sedish names and I Latin, I jumped the conclusions, sorry about that.

It is a good idea to make a search for existing games before creating a new one, see:

Yeah, I was a little annoyed at first, but as you say, it is only a game...
There is a game on the regions of Finland today in case you are interested.
