Sweden's king handed royal orders to the members of iconic pop group ABBA, marking the first time in 50 years the honors have been awarded in the Nordic country.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden — Sweden's king handed royal orders to the members of iconic pop group ABBA, marking the first time in 50 years the honors have been awarded in the Nordic country.

Sweden stopped awarding royal orders to its own citizens in 1975, as the practice was deemed anachronistic. The country continued to award royal orders to foreign citizens. ABBA's popularity was rekindled by the "Mamma Mia" films, which introduced the group's music to new generations.
