This paper is about a new organization how to get smaller communities to join together and become much larger. The purpose is to find out why Norra Sandsjö community and Bringetofta and Norra Sandsjö parishes were separated when Sävsjö municipality block was formed. The purpose is further to find out what the councils of Norra Sandsjö, Nässjö and Sävsjö, the church council and the people who lived in the area thought about the decision that was made by the executive organization in this matter (länsstyrelsen in Jönköping). Voting was arranged amongst the people, who lived in the specific area that in the first inquiry was suggested to be connected with Nässjö municipality block. The source material gives the result of this voting and the opinions of Norra Sandsjö, Nässjö and Sävsjö communities in this question. The source material includes inquires made by the executive organization (länsstyrelsen) and records from the meetings of Nässjö, Sävsjö and Norra Sandsjö councils. The theory is based on the case to have enough proximity to a chief town within the municipality block. The question if the south part of Norra Sandsjö commune and parts of Bringetofta and Norra Sandsjö parishes was going to be connected with Sävsjö municipality block instead of Nässjö municipality block is about the question of proximity to a chief town.
