    "In to battle, walk in a line, see the white in their eyes, caroleans are marching on."
    Muskets were nutoriously inaccurate and takes a long time to reload, so the caroleans would march towards the enemy in 4 lines. At about 150 - 100 meters the enemies would fire off their muskets and start to reload, but most of them would miss. The caroleans kept marching through the fire, even with their friends falling right next to them and close the gap to about 50 meters. Then the first 2 lines would open fire and be way more accurate than the enemies first volley. After that the front and rear lines swap places and they keep marching to about 25 meters, or until you can "see the white of their eyes" and the rear, (now the front) lines would fire their muskets. At that distance, the inaccurate muskets were suddenly pretty accurate and the second volley would be devestating to the enemy. Then they would brake line and charge the enemy with bayonets and sabres.
    Edit: Fixed grammar a little bit. Also, Sabaton has a "Sabaton History" channel on youtube where they go over the history in their songs. I recommend you check it out.

      A lot of his haters seems to forget that he didn't start any war but that 3 countries in a alliance started war on Sweden. All he did was go on the offensive and let THEIR countries burn instead of Sweden. First he crushed the danes (great). then he crushed the russians (good, but he did some strategic errors which let the russian army reform faster). Then he fucked around in Poland for awhile for some reason. Then came the defeat at Poltava which shouldnt be laid at his feet as he was injured and couldnt lead the army.
      So while I think the lefties should give him some more credit, I also think the right shouldnt hold him up as some kind of heroic genius. History is more complicated than just describing it in black and white, good or evil.

Today we have democracy and globalism is a thing created by those that want to control world markets. So either if your extreme right or left globalism is something you should be wary of because its less and less geared to peoples will.

    Part of Karl XI (Karl XII father, and the true genius) reinvention of Sweden was introducing an extremely fatalistic interpretation of Christianity where God had decided everything in minute detail. Everything that happened was according to God's plan.
    One side was that whatever the King said was the word of God, since God had planed for him to say so("my words were said in heaven and so it shall be done" from the Carolus Rex track).
    On another, more tactical level, as a common soldier if you lived or died on the battlefield was already decided and there was nothing you could do anything about so there was no reason to fear. As long as you courageously did your duty heaven awaited you if you died.
    To really hammer the messege home, the Carolean army had an extremely high amount of military priest and was extremely zealous.
    Today we would definitely regard them as religous extremists

    Carolean infantry tactics were revolutionary. Rather than exchanging fire in lines they advanced in three ranks. The first rank fired at about 50 meters, the second at 25 and the third rank was armed with swords and would charge after the second volley followed by the rest armed with musket and bayonet. The tactic was known as "marching on" because they did not stop to fire. "Through hostile fire they will march. The enemy line almost always broke. They were defeated because Sweden didn't have enough men to replace their losses during the prolonged Great Northern War. Also Charles XII was the original Napoleon/Hitler because he thought marching on Moscow was a great idea.
