... that when historian of cartography Leo Bagrow was granted Swedish citizenship in 1952, he had been stateless for 34 years? Source: In his obituary in Imago Mundi, p. 9: "Sweden was, however, to be a second homeland for him - in a literal sense, for in 1952, after being stateless for 34 years, he became a naturalised Swedish citizen".

Interesting enough hook. Article appears in good condition without any outstanding issues. Article has been 5x expanded by nominator within the past day. QPQ checks out. Seems good to go! :3 Generalissima (talk) 18:44, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
