Power of Scandinavia

The world oversaw a Swedish attempt to claim independence destroyed by the forces of the Kalmar Union and her allies during 1470-71. This has set back any Swedish nationalism by far, and this begins to stir up trouble in parts of Europe, fearing another great power arising. Will Europe ever be the same again, with new troubles to come?

The Swedish Attempt For Independence
Main article: Swedish Attempt of Independence

The Swedish attempt for Independence failed during the war between the Kalmar Union and her German allies against the Swedish. The Danes prepared a mass of 5,000 troops, 2,000 from her German allies and 3,000 from the Danes itself. They proceeded to send half of the troops through Scania, and the other half through a sea invasion on Stockholm. The invasion through the lower tip of Sweden proved to be a success, while the sea invasion almost a dread, but still won Stockholm nonetheless. Sten Sture was killed in the Battle of Stockholm, and Nils Bossom Sture imprisoned. The success of the war by the Danish secured the position of leader of the Kalmar Union, and Sweden won't have nationalism for quite some time.
