Might I ask why you removed located in the administrative territorial entity (P131) from the Swedish county roads like Q114244781? QubeCube (talk) 12:22, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because a territorial entity of administration for this subdivisional element doesn't really exist in Swedish jurisdiction. Counties being administrative units, yes, however they technically have no mandate over anything, let alone themselves, which is why there exists parallell subdivisions for practically the same geographic areas that are called Region Skåne for example (Wikidata item Q3232565)
County is in itself a bit of a getting lost in translation from the Swedish word "län" since we would never translate the counties of anglosaxian jurisdictions into "län" in Swedish, hence the issue. In short, it is factually incorrect to call the 21 Swedish "län" administrative territorial entities as they are not in fact territorial entities, only administrative subdivisions (for the sake of legality) - hence it would be better suited to include only the municipalities in that property for the county roads Danielsltt (talk) 12:35, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
