Gustav II was king of Svealand at the end of the 16th century. His long reign is almost forgettable on a domestic front though he would leave Svealand in a much healthier place than he found it.
As his reign went on Gustav was increasingly paranoid that Denmark would attempt to reconquer Svealand. Though his father had essentially allied with the Danish-led 'Schmalkaldic Empire' Gustav was not convinced by Eric XI's words and as a result began looking for alternative allies. His second son, John, was married off to Anne of Scotland, daughter of the indomitable James VII. That Anne would end up inheriting Scotland in 1581 was a happy accident.
Luxembourg...
Gustav died in 1599 and was succeeded by his eldest son Gustav.
