History


The municipality of Syvde was established on 1 February 1918 when the old Vanylven Municipality was split into two municipalities: Vanyvlen and Syvde. Initially, Syvde had a population of 1,260. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, all of Syvde Municipality (population: 1,458), all of Rovde Municipality located south of the Rovdefjorden (population: 436), and all of Vanylven Municipality (population: 2,003) where merged into a new, larger Vanylven Municipality.[3]


Name


The name Syvde comes from the local fjord, Syvdsfjorden. The Old Norse form is Sybðir which means "crooked" or "bent", referring to the shape of the fjord. The name was historically spelled "Søvde".[2][4]


Government


All municipalities in Norway, including Syvde, are responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. The municipality is governed by a municipal council of elected representatives, which in turn elects a mayor.[5]
