Göteborgs-Tidningen... well, I suppose it is hardly out of possibility that someone would restore that name.

A bid for some old-fashioned respectability by a new ownership now that Gothenburg is the national capital, perhaps?
(1) An interesting sidenote: Victor Gunnarsson, who was a suspect in Olof Palme's assassination, moved to the U.S. after he was cleared in the Palme assassination and, sadly, was murdered by the ex-fiancee (who also happened to be a former cop) of a woman he had become romantically involved with (said ex-fiancee is also believed to have killed the woman's mother). The ex-fiancee is still serving time in prison for the murder.
Interestingly, conspiracy theories are popular in regards to both Palme's and Gunnarsson's deaths OTL (though they are more in regards to the former's death than the latter).
BTW, DrakonFin, the US crime series Forensic Files had an episode about Gunnarsson's murder.
Jukra said:How about Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning being the leading Swedish magazine on economic and foreign policy issues? The name would probably be more than accurate in covering the way Sweden would be interacting with most of the world...
Anyway, just great to see you're completing this project!
General Tirpitz said:What sort of ships the Finnish Navy has?
With Göteborgs-Posten being the main competitor to Göteborgs-Tidningen?Maybe it could be an entire family of papers in the capital - the Göteborgs-Tidningen being the general-issue, more respectable morning edition, GT the more tabloid-y evening edition and Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning the serious, hard-hitting economic paper?

That's actually a quite impressive fleet all things considered even if most ships might be death traps.
Has piracy in the Baltic Sea been a problem after the Exchange? Not that it hasn't been an issue IOTL. Even with these limited capabilities, the Finnish navy might be able to do some anti-piracy missions.
Petike said:Thank you for that list !
It is with a heavy heart that I will soon stop near-religiously updating the timeline's page. Until then, though, I'm finishing everything we know of until now.
You're welcome - and thank you for doing all that work in updating it! The page (and the other wiki pages about P&S and the spinoffs) has been a big help for me to check things in past updates to not make a mess of things. So you have definitely helped me to be able to write a better quality TL.
Are there coastal patrols in the Kola peninsula?
