Map of Scandinavia, the Baltic states, northernmost part of current Germany, and parts of Poland and Russia, by Johann Baptist Homann, about 1730.  

The territories of the Swedes [Sviar , Suioni]- Yellow.
The Götar [Gauti , Geats] - Blue.
And the Gutar [ Gotlanders] - Green, placed on the modern Swedish map.

South of all these where the Dani (Danes).

However, these borders changed over time too and though at this time there where no Swedish or Danish nations there would be wars and conflicts between these groups for many hundred years ahead (even after the nations where formed).

Today, people living in Sweden see themselves as ethnic Swedes, but distinction between Swedes and Geats was mentioned as more than a name more or less until modern time (1500s) and the Swedes (as you might have guessed) dominated from rather early on.

I thought i should post a map that gives an aproximate time period of what it claims to reprecent. Ca 500 AD.

Note that an exact map like this cant be done and in other timeperiods other tribal constellations would exist and tribes would be in other places.

Also, the Germanic tribes where not alone in all these areas with a few exeptions.

You might add Sviar, Gauti and Guti in Sweden too (as well as the Dani in todays southern Sweden, Scania and Hallandia + more)..
