	House of Vasa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The House of Vasa was the Royal House of Sweden (1523-1654) and of Poland (1587-1668).
		The throne passed to her cousin Charles X of the House of Palatinate (Pfalz-Zweibrücken), a cadet branch of the Wittelsbachs.
		We thus have two Houses of Vasa from this point onwards: the senior, Catholic branch ruling in Poland, and the cadet, Protestant branch ruling in Sweden.
