▶ In this video I talk about the Territorial Evolution of Sweden. Did you know that at one point - at its territorial peak in 1658 - the Swedish Empire controlled parts of Norway, all of Finland, Ingria (in Russia), Estonia, Latvia, and even parts of Northern Germany? And did you know that from 1814 to 1905 they were in control of all of Norway? Here we will go through all the stages of Sweden’s territorial changes; understanding how it emerged as a country, expanding its territory to include all of modern Sweden (with a late addition of Scania which was still under Danish rule), then expanding as they became a Great Power in Northern Europe into the rest of the Nordics, the Baltic, Eastern Europe and Germany. Eventually losing most of this territory and being “reduced“ to what we know as Sweden today.
