Swedia Amerika

Swedia Amerika () adalah orang Amerika keturunan Swedia. Sejarah Swedia Amerika dimulai sejak era kolonial, dengan gelombang migrasi utama terjadi pada abad ke-19 dan ke-20 dan sekitar 1,2 juta tiba antara 1865–1915. Imigran ini mayoritas bermukim di Midwest, khususnya di negara bagian seperti Minnesota, Illinois, dan Wisconsin, serupa dengan Nordik dan Skandinavia Amerika lainnya. Populasi juga bertumbuh di Pacific Northwest tepatnya di negara bagian Oregon dan Washington pada pergantian abad ke-20.

Sebagai komunitas, Swedia Amerika berkontribusi pada beragam aspek kehidupan Amerika Serikat, antara lain politik, seni, sains, dan bisnis. Mereka membawa tradisi budaya mereka sendiri seperti praktik kuliner, bahasa, dan perayaan seperti Midsummer. Tradisi seperti ini dilestarikan oleh institusi seperti American Swedish Institute di Minneapolis, American Swedish Historical Museum di Philadelphia, Chicago's Swedish American Museum, dan Gammelgården Museum di Scandia, Minnesota.
