expect ISIS never came close to accomplishing anything short of senseless death

And all were fucked by Russia.

RUSSIA SAVE THIS WORLD

And yet except for Isis all of the others got fucked up by Russian winter

​@Sergio LEFOTU That border is already back, in the long run, all they accomplished was killing thousands, they installed immoral laws that only served to kill innocent people, the only reason the UN coalition took so long to beat them back was the UN is unwilling to take heavy casualties, and ISIS used Gurealla warfare They really accomplished nothing, the same with Germany, and Sweden can be said, at least France implemented changes that promoted liberty.

Kosmonawt More like, Russia has alot more people than sweden

huy vam, kak govoritsa :)

In China a lot of people. But he was in a very difficult position. Technical progress and high-quality army are important.

Kosmonawt Well, not really. Swedens leader was a military genius and crushed most of the battles at the start of the war. But When he wanted to invade russia’s capital during winter it didn’t go very well, he didn’t even listen to his generals lol. And after that his army was small and exhusted. But If the swedish army and the russian army fought i think sweden would have won... *his troops was really elite btw*

Nah, they were bigger themselfs and had many allies and still almost lost, they just ran off and the nature in Russia did its thing to the Swedish armies.

Was looking for this comment :)

at the time Saxony lead a personal union with the polish so it was a three way union usually called Saxony-Poland so plc was usually referred to as just Poland in this war

Also during the PLC "Poland" and "Polish" were multi-national, kind of like how everyone who lived in Rome was roman even if they weren't ethnically Italian.

Most likely a simple paiting program like Paint or Paint.Net and an editing program for some minor finishes

Drew Cleary mostly yes, the countries that originally made a coalition against sweden each believed they had a claim to a certain area of the swedish land

the point is that the swedish army was back in strategies and were fighting a war tring to annihilate the russian in one battle, forcing them to surrender, and they annihilate the russian army several times, but while sweden was having problem with recruits and resources, russia had "infinites" resources, the offensive in Ukraine at 3:26, was a desperate one, trying to capture the resources of Ukraine, wich failed, not really because of the winter, but because the Russians won the battle of Poltava

the power of hindsight

Putin.

They were, at that point, desperate for food and supplies. They headed for Ukraine in order to find that, but due to the fact that the Russians have a tendency of burning things, nothing was found. They were then easily wiped out by the Russians. However, Sweden was basically dommed in this war, due to the coalition simply being larger and more powerful.

I was thinking before the march towards Moscow that diverged into Ukraine.

Samsid They were desperate for supplies after the march for Moscow, that’s why they headed for Ukraine. The Swedish King Charles the 12th also expected a second force with supplies to reinforce him, but it was intercepted by the main Russian army.

Augustus would probably invade Poland to take back his throne if he saw that the Swedish army marched north to fight the Russians there, if so the Swedes would be back to square one, only with even worse odds. The Swedish army would have to be "feed over seas" since the Baltic was too ravaged by that time to feed bigger armies (meaning the Swedes would have to go on the offensive anyway). I don't think Charles plan of marching towards Moscow was a stupid decision. He didn't want to conquer all of Russia but, like he had done in Poland, create a civil war in there and have Peter dethroned; Peter was already meeting some opposition within Russia and perhaps, if Poltava would've been lost in a decisive fashion for the Russians, he'd soon get dethroned by his own countrymen. Had Sweden been victorious against Russia they'd gain Courland from Poland while Poland would gain lands from Russia that they had lost in the earlier wars.

Sweden has become the land of swedes?

Edward Karlsson xD

Or you know, from oppressive empire to progressive nation with a strong economy, human rights, lots of scientific accomplishments and equality. I guess it depends on what you think is more valuable of the two.

MasterOfTheChainsaw Sweden is turning into third world country, with crime going up and education going down! and don't tell me its not true! Riots and gangwars, granades explosion at schools am I lying? That's your progressive nation? Is it one of the Swedish citys have ridiculous amount of rapes?

As a matter of fact it isn't true, Sweden isn't turning into a third world country, not any faster than any other country anyway. I mean global warming might just fuck up every nation on Earth, but Sweden is not anymore in danger than anyone else. Possibly even less so due to the geographical situation.

+MetalDope Stop The Sweden Advance...

Utku Emir TOPALOĞLU oh ty.

Yeah honestly its kinda sad, they were such an amazing empire, terribly placed between 2 other empires and strong nations.

To stop the Sweden advance? First, bad English, second Russia and its allies were the ones to declare war for Russian and Polish-Lithuanian ambitions they used the idea the war was to stop Sweden from rising in power but in reality Peter the not so Great who got beat in battle by a 15 year old wanted to establish a new city to trade more in Europe. The King of Sweden Carolous Rex/ Charles the 12th was 15 just a 15 year old boy when these countries declared war on him, and for about 10 years he was winning.

Austria Actually he was 18, he became king at 15 tho :P but yes exactly.

Real

George Chambers But not so hard as Russia fucked turks in 1877 - 78)

To quote Mark Twain ,,I wish Europe would let Russia annihilate Turkey a little--not much, but enough to make it difficult to find the place again without a divining-rod or a diving-bell."

Well a few things Donald Trump . First, this quote is from BEFORE the First World War. Second, I don't think you understand the economies of both countries. Third, Russia isn't without allies either. Although none will be needed for this scenario. Fourth, it might even be possible for Russia to win the war with minimum mobilization seeing how the could destroy Turkey's fleet and air force from a distance and then proceed to pummel it's industry, infrastructure, bases, cities and etc. Fifth, the RF has quite a few spare guns, ammo and such so they wouldn't have to use their foot soldiers all too much. Simply drop those guns where separatists live and arm Erdogan's political adversaries (which are many) and let them fall into the abyss called civil war.

Also, separatist within Russia DON'T have it easy.

And I think it would be beneficial for both countries to forget about war and focus on trade. Seeing how the west doesn't give a flying f#ck for either of them.

Charles was quite imperialistic Bad he didnt succed then then the fatherland might have been better now😢

Galician Mapper that was Russian forces assaulting the Swedish colony in bender run by Charles

russia attack the ottomans and defeated.Not poland

+Deniz Karasu Ottomans defeated Russia in Pruth. Russia had to want peace.

Nah it was Russians that attacked the Ottomans here and they lost

No they can´t

Go learn English first

NO THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE KEPT FINLAND! WAIT... CAPS LOCK IS STUCK........ there we go, Ryssjävlar

+IHE is love, IHE is life why not?

To be honest, under Russian Rule, Finland saw the beginning of it independence. While in Sweden they had no autonomy. Thank God Alexander I had a heart.

I'm sure Alexander I was moved by realpolitik more than by 'heart'. He and Alexander II knew it was in Russia's best interest to keep the Finns content and as loyal subjects by giving them near independence rather than attempting to russify them which Alexander III and Nicholas II foolishly tried to do turning Finland into the most unreliable and anti-Russian region in the empire and thus a safety risk for St Petersburg and the whole empire come WW1.

Because the Poles and Danes threatened war with them if they did

Nabium they attacked sweden, sweden was the victim here

Sweden has already colonized Finland and Estonia, then after the war declaration they push further south and eastwards before they are pushed back again, how is that being a victim? Sure the alliance against Sweden declared war, but they might have had their reasons. After the Swedes are pushed back on the eastern side and lose Finland and Estonia they then invade towards Oslo and also takes Trønderlag; seems almost like a revenge mindset; lose the great war in the east then use the left-over forces to bully the neighbors in the west. Mind you, this all happened just decades after they've taken the large Norwegian counties Jemtland and Herjedalen, it happened after they took Skåne from Denmark and played imperialists in Finland, the Baltics and Lappland for centuries. During this conflict Sweden also hired Scottish mercenaries to run through a defenseless Norway ransacking and killing civilians, until they were stopped by gathering peasants. I fail to see how they are the victim. Just the war declaration? You should explain yourself. An imperialistic, expanding force like Sweden was is not a victim. That's like saying Hitler was a victim because Britain and France declared war, and they lost in the end. You look at the context, and it's clear Hitler was the aggressor. And it's also clear Sweden was the aggressor.

Lemme just explain something here....I meant to say that they declared on sweden and I said they were the victim becouse Nabium said Sweden declared on the anti sweden alliance. I was only correcting him and not implimenting that Sweden was the nice guy here.

Antun Jakov Katancevic No, I never said Sweden declared war on the anti-Sweden alliance. If that was your perception, then okay, but you misread, I never intended to suggest that Sweden declared war. How-ever, you _did_ clearly say "sweden was the victim here" - and Sweden didn't lose a single square of their homeland or any attacks on their civilians, they just lost their colonial empire(with the exception of Lapland which they still hold to this day). I cannot see how the end of their imperialistic attempt in Eastern Europe was them being a victim.

Lapland isn't a colony. And Norway was part of Denmark, making the attack into Trondelag fully acceptable.

Yet he came close to making Sweden the hegemon of europe.

neo-Nazis BEFORE Nazis? really?

But Sweden blue though.

In mapping, color scheme is like this; Red is aggressor. Blue is defender. Peter declared war on Sweden for Baltic sea port, making him and his allies the aggressors.

British arrogance .

Mathieu Vigne No, British truism.

Sweden is by no means a backwater country. Some of the most advanced technology and most educated workforce in the entire European continent, and that includes the UK.

***** who gives a fuck about the year. You've got the gist.

Tobias I called Russia the backwater. Sweden is a small country but I appreciate what you say about her.
