Möre is one of the original small lands of Småland, a historical province (landskap) in southern Sweden.
Traditionally, it has also been interpreted as evidence of 9th-century rule from the Mälaren Valley, but some modern historians instead opine that Sweons was a general term for peoples north of Denmark and did not imply centralised Swedish rule.
[2] From the late 13th century and onwards, Möre was responsible for supporting Kalmar Castle.
Dacke's initial rebellion sprung up in Möre and spread fast due to heavy taxation, forced Lutheran reformation of the church, royal seizures of church property and restrictions on trade with the then Danish Skåneland; it was eventually defeated by the king's army.
Today, Nils Dacke is celebrated locally as a freedom fighter and a symbol of regionalism.
