Changes to Swedish locations on FamilySearch

Hi, I'm so happy to be here and part of the group. Could someone please answer a question for me?

I have Swedish ancestors and have been learning how to read Swedish records the past couple of years. As I've found records, I've added information on FamilySearch. When I add a location, a drop down box appears asking me to choose a standardized location. Much of my family comes from Malmöhus and the drop down box changes it to Skåne even though the record says Malmöhus. Can anyone tell me why?

I don't type in "Sverige". It comes up automatically but the drop down box changes it to Sweden.

Thank you.

    You may want to join the group Nordic Countries Research, which is set up for English speakers to ask for research help, including translations. Your question may get seen more in that group.
