Sweden and Norway have long been controlled by Denmark, not because of their different development. Until the beginning of16th century, the Swedish people, under the leadership of Stern Sture, launched a war against Danish rule and fought for Swedish independence. However, due to inadequate preparation and internal differences, Sture also died early. However, the problem between Swedish nobles and Denmark was solved.
1520, King Christian II of Denmark captured Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. Christian II hosted a banquet at the Red Gate, inviting people and elites from all walks of life in Sweden to attend his banquet in the palace. The naive Swede undoubtedly went to the party. Unexpectedly, this meal became their desperate journey. Similar to the plot in the TV series, it was also invited. During the banquet, more than 80 influential people in Sweden were arrested by Christian II, known as the Stockholm Massacre in history.
However, history is full of coincidences, and this tragedy has put Gustav Vasa on the historical stage. Vasa is a Swedish aristocrat who once made an alliance with Kalma. He was captured by Danes in the Battle of Bran Kirka in 15 18. Later, he managed to escape. His father and brother-in-law both died in the Stockholm tragedy, and his mother was also sentenced to life imprisonment. This looks a lot like Aya. As a descendant of a martyr, he gained considerable prestige in the hearts of Swedes. 152 1 year, Vasa led a popular uprising in Dalana County. 1523 On June 6th, the Swedish Parliament was held in Strannis, and Vasa was officially elected king of Sweden. This day was later designated as the national day of Sweden.
