I'm still impressed by how Charles X crossed the belts in the middle of winter to take Copenhagen. Surprised he's not on here.

yeah, think about that, If Charles X could have conquered all of Denmark. there would have not been Great Northern War. or if there would have been GNW, Sweden would have been better equiped to defeat Russia and even conquer Poland. Sweden would have ruled supreme in northern europe, and possibly become a colonial power. if Russia would have been weaker, what would have that meant to the rest of the continent? what would have happened when time of Napoleon came?

But my vote goes to Henry V. He would have been king of France and England! Can you imagine how europe would look without the Sun King?

I give that thought.

It's a wet dream for swedish nationalists. The Kingdom of Greater Scandinavia consisting of Sweden , Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland...

[Nikolai]

Swedes with a national pride? Sounds like a fairy tale.

[Zoid]

They exist, but they are unfortunately all nazis or suit and tie wearing xenophobics like Sverigedemokraterna...

[Nikolai]

Yeah, we've got some of them here too. Not that being sceptic to the immigration policy is wrong, I am so myself, and I believe Sweden have a major problem in her hands in some parts of the country where things have got out of control. But nazism and xenophobia is not the solution to that. Never.
