"The Geats (/\u02C8\u0261e\u026A\u0259ts/) (Old English: g\u0113atas, [\u02C8j\u00E6\u0251\u032Ft\u0251s]; Old Norse: gautar [\u02C8\u0261\u0251u\u032Ft\u0251r]; Swedish: g\u00F6tar, [\u02C8j\u00F8\u02D0tar]), and sometimes Goths) were a North Germanic tribe inhabiting what is now G\u00F6taland (\"land of the Geats\") in modern Sweden. The name of the Geats also lives on in the Swedish provinces of V\u00E4sterg\u00F6tland and \u00D6sterg\u00F6tland, the Western and Eastern lands of the Geats, and in many other toponyms."@en . . .
