  1. Weird description of Charles XI. Nothing medieval about him. He was however a minor, with a caretaker government, until coming of age at 19. And his first challenge as ruler was this war with Denmark. Which was an eventuality the caretaker government had not made provisions for.

  2. 13:41 Snapp_H_anar, like the Snaphance pistols.
    I was told that when they fought in Scania in the 1650s, the danish troops were given food by the locals.
    But in 1776-77 they had to pay their way.
    So support had dwindled much.

  3. As someone who has lived in and around Lund my entire life, seeing the most famous (or perhaps infamous) battle of my area in a video like this is quite awesome. Pronunciation and spelling of most villages and such are a bit off, but that´s to be expected. However, something really went wrong with the word "snapphanar", which became "snappenahur" even in the subtitles (total gibberish).

  4. Love the videos, But i cant help But Think that every time you showcase a video involving Denmark, that Denmark is always on the loosing end. How Can danish Kings have ruled england, norway and Denmark while always loosing apparently? Would be Lovely to see Denmark come out on top for once. 🫶🏼
