What is Allsvenskan?

Allsvenskan (Swedish pronunciation: ['âl??sv?n?skan]; English: the All-Swedish, also known as Fotbollsallsvenskan, English: the Football All-Swedish) is a Swedish professional league for men's association football clubs.

It is the top tier of the Swedish football league system and has been contested since 1924. The current champions are BK Häcken.
