Caps

This article is about the political faction in Sweden. For caps as an item of clothing worn on the head, see headgear.


The Caps is the name given to a political faction in Swedish history. The primary rivals of the Caps were known as the Hats. The Hats are actually responsible for the Caps' name, as it comes from a contraction of Night-cap, a name used to suggest that the Caps were the soft and timid party.
