I wonder what the flags of Scandinavia would've
looked like today, had the "heathens" developed naturally?

1544        This year, Swedish monarchy became hereditary.

   There is nothing to hoist that flag for.

300+  years of reconciliation one might say.

   Our ancestors resisted for over 300 years.

Imposing beliefs on someone while not welcome.


   You did not discover anything.

   You conquered nothing

It is funny, your end really does justify the means.


It's also kind of funny, I always seem to get
Benedictine monks, Jesuits and Jehova's Witnesses
all mixed up for some reason. You know, the ones who
put flyers and stones other stuff in your mailbox.

I forget, you see!

It's all fine and dandy though, these "church people"
are big boys, and I'm positive they can take an honest
misunderstanding with a smile in their illuminated eyes.

Don't you think?

Ansgar – This "Patron of Scandinavia" and "Apostle of the North", received the missonary mandate to bring Christianity to Northern Europe.


Chalcedonian Christianity  –  1054

Så blev Småland, Sveriges sista upprorslandskap,
genom tvångsanslutning förenat med Riket.

Och året efter sin seger över smålandsbönderna, 1544,
grundade Gustav Vasa genom Västerås arvförening,
sitt ärftliga konungadöme.

Det nationella svenska konungadömet räddades den gången främst genom
den hjälp som lämnades kungen av 6 000 legosoldater från Tyskland.

So became Småland, Sweden's last rebellion province,
by forced affiliation united with the Reich.

And the year after his victory over the peasants of Småland, in 1544,
founded Gustav Vasa through the Västerås inheritance association,
his hereditary kingdom.

The national Swedish kingdom was saved at that time mainly by
the help provided to the king by 6,000 mercenaries from Germany.
