Amelie Von Strussenfelt
Constantina Carolina Amalia "Amelie" von Strussenfelt (1803–1847), was a Swedish writer and poet. Biographyer Amelie von Strussenfelt was the daughter of the courtier and nobleman Michael von Strussenfelt and Fredrika Beata Lindencrona, and the sister of the writer Ulrika von Strussenfelt. Her mother died in childbirth in 1803 and her father left the country after his remarriage not long after, and she was placed in the care of her paternal grandparents, while her sister was placed in the care of her maternal grandparents. The sisters were to have a bad relationship, and her sister Ulrika placed the blame for her late development as a writer on the fact that her sister Amelie had always been considered the more gifted one. She never married, and like her sister, she worked as a governess (from 1831) and eventually set up a school (1845), at that point the most common and almost only socially acceptable profession for an upper-class woman in need of supporting herself.

The 19th (nineteenth) century began on 1 January 1801 ( MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 ( MCM). The 19th century was the ninth century of the 2nd millennium. The 19th century was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas.

The Islamic gunpowder empires fell into decline and European imperialism brought much of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and almost all of Africa under colonial rule.

Swedish Nobility
The Swedish nobility ( sv, Adeln eller Ridderskapet och Adeln) has historically been a legally and/or socially privileged class in Sweden, and part of the so-called ''frälse'' (a derivation from Old Swedish meaning ''free neck''). The archaic term for nobility, ''frälse'', also included the clergy, a classification defined by tax exemptions and representation in the diet (the Riksdag). Today the nobility does not maintain its former legal privileges although family names, titles and coats of arms are still protected. The Swedish nobility consists of both "introduced" and "unintroduced" nobility, where the latter has not been formally "introduced" at the House of Nobility (''Riddarhuset''). The House of Nobility still maintains a fee for male members over the age of 18 for upkeep on pertinent buildings in Stockholm. Belonging to the nobility in present-day Sweden may still carry some informal social privileges, and be of certain social and historical significance particularly am ...
