- Sabaton are back on the channel and we are going back in history again. This time we are going much further back to the time of Carolus Rex. Does the song and the story grab us both?

That's not an insult to the song,wanting to learn more about what the song is about.That's what Sabaton does,mission complete 🫡
This was probably the most compelled I was to learn more as well being the period of history I had the least knowledge on. In fact I have added a few books to my Amazon wishlist about the monarchies around Europe.
The line "I was chosen by God not by the church" is depicting the separation between church and state. Also, by this time, Sweden had become protestant and separated from the Catholic Church.
I think you will love the 4th song from the Swedish version. "En livstid I krig" make sure to watch the live version from Gothemburg.
That and Karl XII actually put the crown on his own head and not by a church official because he truly believed that he was chosen by heaven
"En livstid i krig" live from Gothenburg, with ENG subtitles!
I was there in Gothenburg and I can only agree with you. Just be sure that the subtitles are on.
King carolus rex or king charles the 12th was 15 when he took the throne of sweden when it controlled parts of norway and all the baltic states and parts of Germany and finland after his father died russia poland lithuania and Denmark norway invaded in 1700 when carolus was 18 thinking the boy king is young and weak but he crushed them and showed them sweden wouldn't bow into submission Can you do more carolus rex album i love these and sabaton have a history channel where they go in depth about the history and a little about the song itself
I was really interested in this era. I will let Lacey know we have a request to dig into the album more. I know he will love this as well. With the history channel do they cover the periods without having to listen to the songs. I don't want to spoil any future reactions.
@PopCultureProductions nicead all the carolus rex songs are also in swedish and are from the point of view from the swedish soldier the English one is the POV from international or the whole of Sweden also if you do the last song ruina imperii is only in Sweden as it's a very special song in Sweden showing the point of view of the Sweden soldiers during the end of the war
As a Polish-American, I love their Poland songs. But this one…THIS ONE…doesn’t rock…it rules.
King Karl XII Hero of Sweden. He was credited with having invented an octal numeral system. Voltaire wrote a biography of Charles XII, History of Charles XII. Voltaire portrays the Swedish king in a positive light, against the brutal nature of Tzar Peter the Great
This is why I love doing the videos. Especially Sabaton brings such a rich learning environment. I had never even heard of an octal numeral system. Just spent a large chunk of time reading up about them. Thanks for widening my mathematical horizons.
The swedish version is much powerful =)
Lacey swears by the Swedish version as well. Will try and get it into the rotation in the new year as I am really intrigued now.
The Swedish version is way more powerful to me
You are not alone in this. In fact lacey thinks the same. Good excuse to come back and do that version as well.
This 1 live from Stockholm is nicer. Swedish version
I am sure we will do this as I know Lacey is a huge fan of the Swedish version.
