In 1797, 14-year-old William Gibson sails from Dundee in Scotland to Gothenburg. This will be the start of a young man's journey on a road that led to the construction of a factory and a society, which is largely unique in our country's history. Jonsered's factories, which came to own a whole community and took care of everyone, from the cradle to the grave. The factory owned a nursing home with a maternity ward, a nursery for the youngest, a school that fostered the prospective workers, a girls' home for young workers, housing, a trade booth, a church with a factory-employed priest and, finally, an old age home for those who rested after a long working life.

The 1978 World Cup was played in Argentina, and ended with the home nation winning its first World Cup gold in history. Holland's golden generation lost their second World Cup final in a row. Sweden drew with Brazil but still finished last in their group. Argentina's Mario Kempes won the top scorer's award, while other stars in the tournament included Cubillas from Peru and Boniek from Poland.
