		Charles X or Karl X Gustav (1622-1660), king of Sweden, son of John Casimir, Margrave of Pfalz-Zweibrücken, and Catherine, sister of Gustavus Adolphus, was born at the Castle of Nyköping on November 8, 1622.
		On January 28, 1658, Charles X arrived at Haderslev in South Jutland, when it was estimated that in a couple of days the ice of the Little Belt would be firm enough to bear even the passage of a mail-clad host.
		But this was not enough and a council held at Gottorp on July 7, Charles X resolved to wipe from the map of Europe an inconvenient rival, and without any warning, in defiance of all international equity, let loose his veterans upon Denmark a second time.

	King Charles XII
		Charles XII was born in 1682, and he was barely 15 years old when his father died (of a widely spread stomach cancer) in 1697.
		Charles led the defence of the province of Vor-Pomerania against the Brandenburgian forces until Stralsund itself was surrounded (and eventually fell).
		Had Charles XII himself survived his Norwegian campaign, Sweden would almost certainly have achieved better terms of peace than the unlucky Queen Ulrica Eleonora and her advisors (including her strongly anti-Russian husband, the future King Frederick I, who was a son of the Landgraf of Hesse).
