This episode explores Sweden's fraught position during the Napoleonic Wars, focusing on the 1807 Treaty of Tilsit between France and Russia. We delve into how King Gustav IV Adolf's staunch anti-Napoleon stance led to the loss of Finland in 1809. Join Lucas and Luna as they discuss the diplomatic maneuvers, the role of Pomerania, and the resulting political crisis that toppled the king and paved the way for the Bernadotte dynasty. Actual figures include Tsar Alexander I, Napoleon, and the Swedish diplomat Curt von Stedingk.
