Närke and Värmland County
Närke and Värmland County, or
Närkes och Värmlands län, was the earlier name of
Örebro County in
Sweden, between
1634 and
1779. In that year
Värmland ceded to form
Värmland County. Since
Närke only corresponded the southern part of the remaining territory and the name was changed to reflect the city where the
Governor resided, namely
Örebro.
