In this episode, we explore the Swedish Empire's unexpected rise in the 17th century, from Gustav II Adolf's reforms to the Battle of Breitenfeld in 1631. We discuss the key decisions that turned a small northern kingdom into a European power, and why its influence still echoes today. Join us as we unravel the story of how Sweden, against all odds, shaped the continent's future.
