  • Revered Swedish king and military commander Gustavus Adolphus (1594 AD - 1632 AD), known most famously as "The Lion of the North," ascended to the throne at the age of 17 and quickly established his reputation as both a skilled military strategist and an innovator in the art of warfare. Inheriting a complex web of domestic and foreign conflicts from his father, the usurper King Charles IX, Adolphus wasted no time in forming alliances with the once hostile nobility, crushing the enemies of Sweden, and leading his nation to the upper echelon of power in Europe during the 17th century.

      He was Napoleons idol, and when Napoleon (statistically the most successful general in human history atleast in terms of battles won) considers you the greatest military leader of all time, and the fact that his method of warfare is essentially used today (albeit an evolved version of it) you know your a badass

    Its funny, he stumbles on the "snökonungarnas rike". (Which means the snow kings' kingdom). He is starting to say "kungarnas", which is short for "konungarnas" - but then corrects it mid sentence. Its very subtle but as a swede I can't keep from rolling my eyes.

      @Weebusaurus 7 років тому +1

      ***** Frisian is the closest linguistic relative to OLD English. You know, with runes and stuff. To simply end it there is to ignore the actual history of English. The Germanic old English was mixed--not influenced, outright creoled--with the Norman language, a dialect of French with itself heavy influences from the Norse. What does that mean? I dunno. It means English has a lot of French and Norse influences in it in addition to its west Germanic base. All in all, English is just a bastard of a language, and its history of influences from other languages can't really be explained in full with a linguistic family tree like most other languages can.

    The main army in the wars before consisted mainly of Swedes, And have always done that. More people = more soldiers in the army, Look at the Great Northern War for example and compare the 40 000 dead Finns with the 140 000 dead Swedes.
    Hakkapalita was a light cavalry, Used to harrass the enemy flanks and to chase down fleeing people and to attack in crucial moments like any other cavalry. But they are just one regiment among others. What about the Old blue regiment? Yellow regiment?

    The transition from the Russian Empire to the Soviet Union at the end of World War I, yes. The Communist revolution in 1917 was why Russia was unable to intervene in Finland's declaration of independence. Thus, the modern Republic of Finland was born.

    Don't really understand why they have him calling himself the Snow King, seeing as that was a deragotary name used by the Austrians.

    Well Finland doesn't have more experience in war, but Finnish people have at least as much experience in war as you Swedes do.
    We received training and assistance from Germany during the both World Wars, and they if someone knew a few things about warfare. The Second World War was the first modern war, and we participated in it, so you can't say we haven't been involved in modern warfare.
    Your latest war was in 1814, and after that you have only taken part in War against Terrorism just like us.

    No, its Gustav II Adolf, never put II after Adolf.
    But Firaxis mixed things up so this animation actually got the looks of the swedish king Erik XIV. Just google Erik XIV and compare him to the photos of the real Gustav II Adolf. This animation figure carries the exact same haircut and long beard as Erik XIV. The portrait in the background is also a classic Erik XIV portrait painting, which obviously is the same person as the animated figure.
