I was interested(still are) and tried to find the occasion to your national day, but I found more than a one(from Kalmar to king and reform) - so perhaps a sweet Swede can enlightening me? (is it all or one; which)
btw, chokoladeboller! chokladbollar...

Well the kalmar union was dissolved on the 6th of June in 1523 (sweden rebelled) and Gustav Vasa was elected king. So I guess it's a bit of both. I read up on it and apparently it's also part in memory of the 1809 government reform.
"The Instrument of Government adopted on 6 June 1809 by the Riksdag of the Estates and King Charles XIII was one of the fundamental laws that made up the constitution of Sweden from 1809 to the end of 1974.
It came about after the Coup of 1809, when the disastrous outcome in the Finnish War led Swedish nobles and parts of the Army to revolt, forcing King Gustav IV Adolf to involuntarily abdicate and go into exile."

thx Cato
Instead of a late wish I will just hope that everybody had a good national day.
P.S. The Kalmarunion wasn't discolved, just the name, it functioned(laws, trade etc.) as union until 1814 when both Denmark and Norway left
