Kingdom: Swedish Rulers

Hans finally manages to get his father's throne back. But now he's wrangled the Swedes back into the Kalmar Union, what does he actually get round to? After all, the Swedes are often less than happy about having a Dane on the throne... Oh, and what even is his name in the first place??

We finally have a clean slate and can move the story forward with someone we haven't covered before! We also get to cover our second "the Elder" which is fun. The name Sten Sture is quite famous in Swedish history, but what does this chap get up to as Sweden tries to move on from the backstabbing era of Karl Knutsson Bonde! There will of course be more war with Denmark though, don't worry...

Here is the Kingdome explosion!

He's back for one more try (and another)! After spending some time in exile down in Poland, Karl Knutsson Bonde is now back and this time he has a plan. Sort of... How does one even go about trying to pick up the pieces when Sweden has been torn apart more times than we can remember over just this one man's lifetime? Join us to find out and see what score KKB gets, both for this period and what his grand total will be after we combine both of his rankings into one!

We hope you are hungry for some more Swedish history content, as today we cover our sixth regent; EAT! Erik Axelsson Tott won't starve you of excitement, coming from a powerful border nobility family with all the credentials needed for a 15th century nobleman. But having a powerful family doesn't mean you can deal with an exiled Swedish king, a kicked out Danish ruler and a whole bunch of other angry Swedish opponents. Let's see if EAT has bitten off more than he can chew...

Last time we had our first bishop on the podcast and today we upgrade and see our first archbishop! Why does Åsa not want to seem soft on torture, why is JBO Chris' favourite character we have covered so far and how will our man navigate the choppy waters of the 1400s during not one but two spells as regent? Let's look into our 5th person to serve as Riksföreståndare in the past thirty years!
